For awhile, tomorrow through the time of the Arctic fropa, we should see occasional rates of 5-7" per hour, and from my experience, as that front passes and is oriented with the band and merges, there could be a very brief period of mind blowing rates...seen it twice in my life when living in Parish. I took about an 80/20 ratio (Rgem/3k Nam) when making my call. I believe the difference between the 2 models is that the nam keeps the band as a lakeshore band, where as the regional Canadian brings the band closer to the major axis of the lake. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah insane 2-3” QPF with 20:1 or higher ratios. You do the math. That’s insanity. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also have to remember, thats a 48hr map, cut about .5-.75 qpf off for right now according to the hrdps. It does flip over to snow later this morning in that area per hrdps. But I dunno, these warm layers are sneaky 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolfie09 Posted January 9, 2022 Author Share Posted January 9, 2022 Well it's quite clear we will not be getting any consensus lol We will go into the event Canadians vs Americans..

I expect the heaviest snow to be just north of me and we’ll be lucky to get a couple of inches with the Arctic fropa. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may dump snow, and then after a few hours, life goes on. I remember when I moved from Lancaster, PA to a snow belt, I was shocked when we had a foot of snow and schools still opened. The best chance for school closures here is if the heavy snow hits during rush hour and looks to continue. We don't do "snowed in" in these parts unless it's several feet. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's much easier to take if you expect little and then are pleasantly surprised. I am STILL learning this after 13 years of living in lake effect areas. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfie09 Posted January 9, 2022 Author Share Posted January 9, 2022 WPC The best forcing/lift is farther north with the eastern UP, Huron/Georgian Bay, and Lake Ontario favored for heavy LES. Inversion heights climb to 10,000 ft due to as high as 1000 J/kg of instability, snowfall rates will become intense, especially downstream of Lake Ontario streamlines make the effective fetch/additional moisture from Lakes Superior and Huron overlap with long fetch over Lake Ontario directly into orographic lift of the southern Tug Hill late tonight into Monday night. Snowfall of 1.5 to 2"/hr are the mean from the 00Z HREF over this area for at least 20 hours. While the actual single-band will waiver slightly through this time, 24"+ are likely.

DeltaT13 Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 12 hours ago, tim123 said: Anyone with more knowledge than me can tell me what this sounding means in rochester? It shows a very dry atmosphere basically devoid of any synoptic moisture. It does show very steep low level lapse rates and thus a conditionally unstable boundary layer, but without moisture it doesn’t mean much. Almost no directional wind shear but winds are nearly due west. Lake induced instability would be extreme under that. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
