tim123 Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 5.9 official at 7 am in roc. Think we get another inch or 2 this morning. Band looks like it wants to lift north some before dying out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Bumble Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 Congrats Roc/CNY people! Frozen bare ground here (beats mud!). Like the look of longer range models this morning, heading into NY’s. Let’s hope it holds, no more steps back! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BGM Blizzard Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 That band in Orleans/Monroe is picking up some moisture off Cayuga Lake and delivering some goods down here again. Will take it! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a winter wonderland! This is really pretty amazing. If you asked me yesterday at this time how much snow I’d have today at this time I would have told you a dusting to a half inch, if that. From my window, I’m estimating just under 8 inches on the ground and snowing moderately right now! This is truly an impressive surprise event. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tim123 Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 Delta gotta be one of the bigger lake events for you in awhile? You might get to double digits? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely, and pure lake effect at that. High ratios certainly juiced our numbers but I’m so happy right now haha. A Christmas miracle. I need to shovel a lot of this into a good pile to see how long I can make it last. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tim123 Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 Can see synoptic cloud deck moving in for tonight's system already. Wonder if it will help hold the band together a bit longer than normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TugHillMatt Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 I see the latest model runs have the 'heaviest" snow for tonight missing to the south over the same area that has gotten it the past couple years. My call of a quarter to half inch here is looking good. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah December's dead to me haha This will probably be the worst of them all snow wise..Of course GFS had to be right with that Christmas rainstorm too lol 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeltaT13 Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 You can see the winds really backing on the west end of the lake. The band should reorient east west before the synoptic overtakes it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the end of next week, our snowfall average total should be up to around 40 inches. So we are at about 25% of where we should be....pretty much the same as last year. I know you will say that is still better than what you have...but it's still ridiculously awful for those like me who thought living here would provide a more solid winter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can imagine. It will obviously be a bigger deficit around here since we rely on the lake effect for our totals. No cold air accompanied with moisture moving over those lakes equates to zippo for us. In these patterns, it stings when places a few miles away get a half foot from a thin lake effect band because you know the chances are extremely slim of having another setup anytime soon. It's hard to explain...but it might be easier as a winter lover to live outside of a lake effect snow belt. It's easier to tolerate nobody within hundreds of miles having snow than somebody down the road having a foot while you stare at grass for weeks. It's just a strange situation. Thanks for reading my musings. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
