KENNYP2339 700 Posted January 30 @Mike W IN ALTMAR well...hows the event going? I bet the drifting is just incredible, possible life threatening weather with the cold, winds and heavy snow Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StL WeatherJunkie 552 Posted January 30 Wow, just saw the 12z 3km NAM forecasting more than 5 feet off Lake Ontario over the next 60 hours. The thought of averaging 1" per hour for several consecutive days makes me drool. Enjoy and stay safe @Mike W IN ALTMAR Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike W IN ALTMAR 413 Posted January 31 (edited) The event doesn't start for me till tomorrow into friday.. I'm right on the southern fringes so it is a really tough call, as usual all the meso-models show something different.. The 3k nam went from a couple inches to a few feet in about 10 miles lol NWS calling for 16"-26" so we'll see..At the end of the day the Lake is going to do what it wants.. I live 6miles ESE of Pulaski.. Edited January 31 by Mike W IN ALTMAR Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike W IN ALTMAR 413 Posted January 31 This is why it's hard to trust even meso models for LES.. Max of 118" lmao Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mike W IN ALTMAR 413 Posted February 9 WNW flow keeping everything south, southern part of the county.. Picked up a quick a couple inches on it's way down, real issue is the wind, gusting 40-60mph..True blizzard conditions.. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hiramite 485 Posted Wednesday at 12:54 AM Lots of ice on Erie. It certainly reduces the amount of LES but water vapor and heat can still be transported thru the ice resulting in some LES. Cracks in the ice also allow for LES development. Case in point, Buffalo area on Jan 30. Here’s some further reading. http://people.hws.edu/laird/index_files/pubs/2008-Cordeira-Laird-mwr.pdf 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
