YYZ is only reporting 9", which is strange as I have family minutes away posting pictures of cars covered. I'd say 20''+ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That can't be true? The left side of that band is heading south into eastern Niagara. Could make it’s way back into northern Erie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TugHillMatt Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 Looks like another band starting to form over the Finger Lakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am hoping we see some enhancement as the winds continue to veer more off the lake in our direction. You/we will... Should be a pretty nice back 1/4 of the storm for us. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That can't be true? Knowing some of YYZ climo, large snowstorms like this one (and particularly blizzards) are quite rare for them. There have only been a select few storms in history that have dropped over 15" there, and this looks to join the club. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TugHillMatt Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 After a lull with lighter rates, it's snowing very nicely again with that banding over the Finger Lakes heading here. Looking forward to the next 12 to 18 hours here. Could possibly hit double digits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andyhb Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 Toronto's record is 19" (48 cm) from December 1944. This may challenge that, although observations at YYZ are often low and not representative of the city. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's picking up bigtime here already and the good banding hasn't even arrived yet. Gives me hope for a good thump under the bright banding. It's been snowing decently here since around 10:30 this morning and outside of a short lull at lunch. Let the games begin! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolfie09 Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 We have been in a lull for the past hour or so, even a peek of sunshine lol Some precipitation starting to fill back in off the lake.. Quick look at the hrrr shows another 3"-5" for most of Oswego county this afternoon/evening.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rochesterdave Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 The backend hasn’t been much more than snow showers over here. Looks like we pretty much call it with a foot. Not a bust and not a blockbuster. Toronto really scored. As did Cleveland. Just yesterday afternoon I bet they figured on almost nothing. Now that’s a feel good storm! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that’s a feel good storm! Some local mets are calling it a 1 in 100 year storm for Toronto, or at least a once in a generation. All the right factors have to come together to give us a snow event like this. Buffalo and Rochester can rely on lake enhancement, while Ottawa is just a snow magnet. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That can't be true? It's not the worst storm in history, lol. The biggest one day snow event was in January 1965. The city received 16" out of the December 10-11, 1992 storm. Granted, you'd have to at least be 40 to remember the 1992 storm. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say 20''+ YYZ is the worst reporting station for snow. No way the city got just 9". No way. The two cars in our driveway are almost buried. The snow is up to my waist even away from the drifts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
