sferic Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 1 hour ago, TugHillMatt said: It's been dumping all morning here. The models did show western Onondaga getting a couple more inches than Northeastern Onondaga. I disregarded it as them being dumb, but maybe there was some merit to that? I think you guys up there get skunked by downsloping since you're closer to the Tug. I also have noticed you seem to record less in Synoptic events. Not much to write home about here in Cicero. Maybe more with LES tonight or clipper tomorrow? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The big synoptic storm featured highest totals north of me, same with the big LES event. The other 2-3 LES/enhanced events had highest totals south of here. The last 2 events the jackpots were pretty close. I think we jack potted last night though, based on radar. In comparison to central NY, western NY has jack potted quite a bit this year. Yes, in comparison. Every synoptic storm has underperformed in Syracuse...pretty much the entire time I have lived here. This is especially true this season. The only thing that is ever true for here is the temps will get 4 to 5 degrees warmer than being forecasted. Heat over performs, snow doesn't. Please not another summer with record days of heat and then another lackluster winter next year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While almost everyone is below normal snowfall including myself, the storms that did happen all performed. Very rare to go an entire year without a bust. The only one that you can call a bust here was that big LES storm that hit metro Buffalo. We only got 4" from that one, but we had 2 of them over perform by quite a bit. It still performed just further north than modeled. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PerintonMan Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 1 hour ago, tombo82685 said: Yea models showed the butt crack formation well here in the valley Yeah, my fear was that the "gap" the models latched onto was actually under-done, and I was right. Haven't been outside yet but I would estimate 2-3". About what I called for ROC a few days ago based on the trends. Pretty disappointing that, while the overall season numbers are decent, we have an exceptionally hard time getting a noteworthy event around here. Maybe that's just how it goes in WNY? (When I lived in CT or Boston, we got half the annual snowfall as we do here, but were good for at least 1-2 big events a year.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the models aren’t impressed. It’s hard to forecast though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stash Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Moderate to heavy snow all day here so far. Albany with an impressive 5 straight hours of heavy snow, w/ gusts over 30mph the past two. Nice to see after a crap winter there. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rochesterdave Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 All winter I’ve been lucky. This has been a real kick in the nuts. At snow ridge now and it’s pretty icy. They maybe got 3” of wind blown stuff. There are parts of this ass crack of a valley that appears to have had a bit less than a dusting. Really disappointing. I’m getting Matt’s rants about now. It sucks. Lol Bufs minimal map said 5” for Lowville and even that busted big time! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol The last great winter I have seen was 13-14, and that was in West Michigan. The rest of the decade after that was atrocious. You guys had some decent months of winter after those years.

CNY_WX Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 The wind has really picked up here and is blowing around the 3.5 inches I got. The sky looks dark to the west even though there’s nothing nearby on the radar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeltaT13 Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 It was a solid day on the mountain with snow falling all day and it was a dense but dry consistency. I don’t think we got more than 6 inches though. Still more than enough to make it really fun. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
