It’s my superpower and it is just the worst. That band just south of Watertown is epic - but its been frozen in place. Had it not been for the holiday, I'd be sitting in a Watertown Airbnb stewing until steam lifted the cranium off my bald head. The band will move north at some point, but not 70" worth. Very light snow here with about an inch in the last 24 hours. Was very festive decorating the tree yesterday. Cold at 16.5. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just video of two old guys driving a huge plow and listening to classic rock music. They were skeptical about their location south of Watertown. This morning they are plowing with joy lol. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjvanals Posted November 30 Share Posted November 30 1 hour ago, CAPE said: Yeah the band has been persistent to the south of there. The forecast was dramatically adjusted yesterday afternoon. I read some of the AFD and apparently with these LES events the hi-res short range models have a south bias so they tend to lean towards the globals when forecasting the exact location of the bands. I guess that didn't quite work out in this case. Watertown is typically just a bit north for the epic long duration lake events which are usually focused somewhere from ~Adams Center in Jefferson County to Central Square in Oswego County 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jayyy Posted November 30 Share Posted November 30 Watertown is typically just a bit north for the epic long duration lake events which are usually focused somewhere from ~Adams Center in Jefferson County to Central Square in Oswego County Truth. Same with buffalo versus its immediate southtowns. It’s rare that steering winds are perfectly SW to NE, which is what buffalo and Watertown need for a prolonged event. Now.. when it does happen, it’s epic due to the crazy long fetch over Ontario and Erie. Don’t count Watertown out though. Winds will steer today and tonight and they’ll likely still see upwards of 3 feet by Sunday night. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I forgot how insane LES is from my college days in buffalo. Magical. Snowpack is certainly going to be building to our north over the next 1-2 weeks Beautiful! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the guys was like 6’5” and he walked into a maximum accumulated snow area . It was a foot over his head and not a drift. 5-6’ undrifted not unusual and 3-5’ everywhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pazzo83 Posted November 30 Share Posted November 30 Low of 28F here in upper NW. 30F at DCA, which sounds about right. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongRanger Posted November 30 Share Posted November 30 First solid freeze at my station near BWI. The 13th briefly touched freezing and froze only some garden annuals here. Too bad the airport fixed their Mr Freeze sensor, think of all the snow/ip/zr they would have otherwise had! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have done 4 LES chases since 2022 and love it when I get the location right - but as this latest round shows, its not for the faint of heart. The experience for a snow lover like me being in the middle of a band is truly second to none. I went looking around the Tug for possible cabin locations this summer (ain't much up there) to get a more permanent fix. Your chase sounds absolutely epic. If another LES chase comes up in the future, I'd be there in a New York minute lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think they have reached the 6’+ level since then snowing so hard, almost dark at 2pm, 5’+ everywhere and some more. Just a not on earth experience for me. If not for Ra**dy I may have perished in the white outs! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wowzers. It's going to be nearly as cold here in Myrtle Beach this coming week as it is going to be here in NoVA. That's mind-blowing. Folks down there aren't quite sure how to deal with that kind of cold...we saw numerous folks down there last evening "layering up," but even then they didn't seem to be ready for THAT level of cold. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
