I'm a little over 1600' here and only 7 miles from the lake. The prevailing winds favor the Keweenaw most of the time tho. The brightest white is 1800-1900 feet. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not too high but should be some pretty good views of Lake Superior. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloWeather Posted February 23, 2022 Author Share Posted February 23, 2022 Its similar to the Chautauqua ridge. You go from the coastline to 2300 feet in a matter of a few miles 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloWeather Posted February 23, 2022 Author Share Posted February 23, 2022 There are actually no snowfall spotters in the best spot along the Chautauqua ridge. They likely average quite a bit more than lori in Perrysburg up there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomorrow could be interesting noonish - 5pm window if that squall can swing through. Those clouds rolling in right now look mean! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides the tug and surrounding towns, areas east of Lake Erie experiences the highest snowfall rates anywhere east of the Rockies on average. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must be a reason buf is forecasting those amounts? Nope and I think all the models are overdoing the ice coverage on Lake Erie. What ice there is isn’t even solid and can still transport moisture through it. I had a job yesterday in Angola right on the lake in a 3 story house on top of a dune and could see out into the lake pretty far when it wasn’t snowing and there’s tons of open water as far as I could see past the first mile or so out which was ice but could still see slush and open pockets of water in that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. Every satellite pic of Lake Erie have shown great open areas on the East end and slush ice in the central basin. Snowing moderately here now as well and this could surprise.
