Well as a newbie here in Onondaga (Cicero ) I'm ready for SNOW Sunday night into Monday Night. I feel confidant 6 inches is a lock and if it's an extreme overperformer 12- 18 inches.

I think next week's going to be an EXCELLENT week for snowfall...especially if we get the lake involved. Growing up in a place with a very similar climate to NYC... the periods where the Great Lakes get the combination of synoptics and lake effect storms...were truly epic to me when relocating. It's been a few years, so many of us here are hangry...and we're ready to make up for it!

I mean if you look at the legend, thats just obscenely heavy snow as its nested within the darkest blue colors that are only found in the snow color legend.  It's very rare to see that color scale actually in play!

Yeah I've never seen it before in all my time looking at weather models in Upstate. I've seen it many times in strong Nor'easters.

A shift a bit west would likely introduce the
possibility for a wintry mix across parts of the area,
especially east of I-81. A shift a bit east would introduce the
possibility for the heavier snow to be across our area. Right
now, if you went with the deterministic consensus verbatim, the
heaviest axis of snow would be actually be across Western NY
with a potential dry slot deflating amounts a bit across Central
NY and Northeast PA. 

Must we play this game in every storm? lol

You do see it from time to time Upstate, but usually in Eastern areas out my way, and usually (as you said) only in very strong nor'easters. Outside of Upstate, do you ever see them modeled in narrow lake effect bands in CNY or WNY?  Being far enough east from the lakes to only get light amounts of lake effect, that's an area I've admittedly paid less attention to.

Hey all, I'm going to be chasing this thing from Philly. I know it's very early but I'll be coming back for some spot recommendations, it does look like itll be somewhere between Erie PA and W NY.   The speed of this thing might hurt, but I do think 20 inches or greater will be hit by someone in W NY

Welcome! We can give you some advice on where NOT to go... ;)

Speed is not ideal but can make up for it in lake effect on top

The nor’easter that dropped 17.5 inches on Syracuse on January  4, 1994 as mainly a 7 hour storm. 9.5 inches of that fell in 2 hours when a ***** band moved through.
