Syrmax Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 Sky cleared out and lake effect died. So much for the WWA here. Only 3-4 weeks of winter remain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rochesterdave Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 Gonna be a tough few days. Highs in the upper 50’s. Not sure my 8” pack survives this 3 day onslaught. My brother is traveling to Bozeman on Monday. He’ll be skiing Jackson Hole, Big Sky and Grand Targhee. They haven’t had a lot of snow in January or February.

I was thinking the same thing. Another failed lake effect event on NW winds. These NW wind lake effect events behind cold fronts do diddly for Syracuse...or maybe it's just the new theme of snow dying here all the time. Looks like Syracuse city area did even worse, as has been the case, over the past 2 days. Looks like the lake effect has made its way over the new snowbelt of SW Onondaga county. Glad we got some moisture yesterday for a couple of inches because today's snowfall was waaaay less exciting than I thought it was going to be. I think we'll be mostly grass by Monday/Tuesday (Maybe even tomorrow pm). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They provide synoptic snow and enough moisture behind to keep the nw flow going strong with thicker bands as opposed to arctic front nw flow which is usually very dry unless reinforced by clippers. November of 2016 rings a bell in my head as a good example of this. https://www.weather.gov/buf/lesEventArchive?season=2016-2017&event=A 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloWeather Posted February 20, 2022 Author Share Posted February 20, 2022 @TugHillMatt The close proximity of the strong low and the associated deep moisture and lift made this a hybrid lake effect snow event. Lake enhanced snow covered a much larger area than in our typical lake effect snow events that feature very narrow bands of heavy snow. We haven’t seen this storm track in 2 years. It’s still the climo favored track and why Syracuse averages 120”+ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, and unfortunately those Inland Noreasters have been MIA for years. That's why I said 20s with moisture is great. These dry, cold NW winds behind cold fronts are so meh. Models had showed the clipper today reinforcing the lake effect, but it was extremely minute. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I have said "lake effect" is an extremely overrated term when referring to snow in Syracuse. Lake enhancement doesn't get enough credit...and I think Syracuse's climate relies MUCH more on enhancement from synoptics than the typical lake effect. The area in which I lived in West Michigan was very similar, in that it relied on synoptic events for enhancement more than pure lake effect. So when synoptic patterns SUCK, the season's average is reaaaally bad...like we've seen the past 3 winters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
