hawkeye_wx Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 I'm going with an estimate of 6.2" for a total. It's more a guess than anything, based on earlier measurements and more hours of solid snow into the night, because it's impossible to measure. Des Moines officially received 14.3".

It's more a guess than anything, based on earlier measurements and more hours of solid snow into the night, because it's impossible to measure. Des Moines officially received 14.3".That 14.3” at DSM is highly suspect. It’s the highest reported total anywhere so far (IA and the region), and is nearly 2” higher then the next highest max report.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That band is unbelievable! Reminded me of that one years ago that pounded Binghamton except not stationary but this keeps backbuilding south. Surprised TWC didn't have someone in this area for coverage. Models were always looking good for this area. Think there's any lake enhancement with this band or think it's pure synoptic? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be because they bands are convective almost in nature. Even if sleet mixes in, the rates will likely compensate 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerball Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 My kind of snowstorm. Jealous... 000 FXUS61 KBUF 170550 AFDBUF Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Buffalo NY 1250 AM EST Mon Jan 17 2022 .NEAR TERM /THROUGH TODAY/... ...MAJOR WINTER STORM TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY... Regional radars showing an intense band of snow moving north across Western NY, with confirmed snowfall rates of 3-4"/hr and extremely large dendrite conglomorates. A few spotter reports and webcam imagery show sleet mixing in close to Lake Erie, a result of strong downsloping off the higher terrain of NW PA and the Southern Tier. This mix with sleet won`t last too long, but may briefly spread into other areas in Western and Central NY overnight. We expect the heaviest snowfall rates of 2-4"/hr to fall between now and 6am, then snowfall rates will back off to a more manageable 1-2" per hour.
