AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BUFFALO NY
302 AM EST THU FEB 19 2009

.SYNOPSIS...
DEEP LOW PRESSURE CENTERED NORTH OF LAKE ONTARIO THIS MORNING WILL
CIRCULATE COLDER AIR ACROSS OUR REGION THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK
AS IT TRACKS NORTHEASTWARD TO THE CANADIAN MARITIMES. WRAP AROUND
MOISTURE ON THE WEST SIDE OF THE LOW WILL PRODUCE SNOW SHOWERS OVER
OUR REGION WITH MORE SIGNIFICANT SNOW ACROSS THE SKI AREAS SOUTH OF
BUFFALO. THERE IS ALSO A THREAT OF HEAVY LAKE EFFECT SNOW FROM THIS
AFTERNOON INTO THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT. ANOTHER FAST MOVING SYSTEM FROM
THE OHIO VALLEY IS EXPECTED TO BRING A GENERAL SNOWFALL TO THE
REGION SATURDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
PRECIPITATION IS CHANGING OVER TO ALL SNOW VERY EARLY THIS MORNING
ACROSS THE WESTERN COUNTIES WITH RAIN OR A RAIN/SNOW MIX FROM THE
GENESEE VALLEY TO THE NORTH COUNTRY. A PEEK AT THE TUG HILL WEBCAM
SHOWS A COUPLE INCHES OF SNOW ACCUM AT THE HIGHER ELEVATION...AND
EXPECT THAT ALL AREAS WILL HAVE CHANGED OVER TO SNOW BY DAYBREAK AS
STRONG COLD ADVECTION CONTINUES.

UPSLOPE SNOWS WILL CONTINUE ACROSS THE SOUTHERN TIER AND NORTH
COUNTRY DURING THE MORNING...WHILE MUCH OF THE REMAINDER OF THE AREA
JUST EXPERIENCES SOME SCATTERED SNOW SHOWERS AS A BRIEF PERIOD OF
DRY SLOTTING WORKS IN BEHIND THE DEPARTING COLD FRONT. THEN A
SECONDARY AREA OF WRAPAROUND PRECIPITATION/MOISTURE WILL BEGIN
SPREADING ACROSS THE AREA FROM THE CENTRAL GREAT LAKES DURING
THE MORNING OVER THE WEST AND BY MID DAY FARTHER EAST. IN
CONJUNCTION WITH 850 MB TEMPERATURES COOLING TO THE -12C TO -14C
RANGE...THIS WILL HELP ENHANCE THE UPSLOPE SNOWS EAST OF LAKE
ERIE...AND WILL ALSO LEAD TO A GRADUAL TRANSITION TO MORE OF A PURE
LAKE EFFECT EVENT EAST OF LAKE ONTARIO...THOUGH THE ACTIVITY THERE
WILL LIKELY NOT CONSOLIDATE INTO A SINGLE LAKE BAND UNTIL LATER IN
THE AFTERNOON. AT THIS POINT... GENERALLY EXPECT ACCUMULATIONS OF AN
INCH OR LESS ACROSS MOST OF THE AREA...WITH 1-3/3-4 IN THE FAVORED
AREAS OF UPSLOPE/LAKE ENHANCED PRECIPITATION TO THE LEE OF THE LOWER
LAKES.

ALL OF THIS WILL ALSO BE ACCOMPANIED BY FALLING TEMPS THROUGHOUT THE
DAY AND TONIGHT IN THE COLD ADVECTION REGIME IN THE WAKE OF THE COLD
FRONT...AND BRISK WEST WINDS THAT WILL INCREASE TO THE 20-30 MPH
RANGE BY MIDDAY. WITHIN ANY AREAS OF STEADIER SNOW...THIS WILL LEAD
TO  REDUCED VISIBILITIES IN AREAS OF BLOWING SNOW. GIVEN THIS AND
THE LIKELIHOOD OF SUCH CONDITIONS CONTINUING INTO THURSDAY
NIGHT...WINTER WEATHER ADVISORIES HAVE BEEN POSTED FOR AREAS
DOWNWIND OF LAKE ERIE BEGINNING THURSDAY AFTERNOON. GIVEN THE
EXPECTED DEVELOPMENT OF LAKE EFFECT EAST OF LAKE ONTARIO AND ITS
EXPECTED PERSISTENCE THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT AND INTO FRIDAY...A LAKE
EFFECT SNOW WARNING HAS ALSO BEEN HOISTED FOR AREAS EAST OF LAKE
ONTARIO. PROLONGED LAKE EFFECT SNOW ACCUMULATING 9+ INCHES OVER THE
24+ HOURS OF LAKE SNOW ACCOMPANIED BY STRONG WEST WINDS OFF LAKE
ONTARIO.

&&

.SHORT TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
A DURING THE BEGINNING OF THIS PERIOD WE WILL STILL BE UNDER THE
INFLUENCE OF A DEEP...WELL STACKED LOW CENTERED OVER NORTHERN NEW
ENGLAND...SLOW WITHDRAWING TOWARD THE CANADIAN MARITIMES. WRAP
AROUND MOISTURE COUPLED WITH SHORT WAVES CROSSING THE AREA IN THE
CYCLONIC FLOW ON THE BACK SIDE OF THE LOW WILL KEEP POPS FAIRLY HIGH
FOR FRIDAY. WE WILL CONTINUE THE LIKELY FOR MOST AREAS BUT
CATEGORICAL IN THE UPSLOPE AREAS SOUTH AND SOUTHEAST OF BUFFALO.
ALTHOUGH LAKE EFFECT INSTABILITIES ARE NOT IMPRESSIVE SOUTHEAST AND
EAST OF LAKE ONTARIO THE FLOW IS STRONG AND WELL ALIGNED. A
COMBINATION OF UPSLOPE AND LAKE ENHANCEMENT SHOULD PROVIDE ENOUGH
LIFT FOR A CONTINUING LAKE EFFECT EVENT SO CATEGORICAL POPS THERE AS
WELL. IT WILL ALSO BE QUITE WINDY AS WELL WITH BLOWING AND DRIFTING
SNOW CONSIDERING TEMPERATURES MAINLY IN THE 20S. THE SOUTHERN EXTENT
OF LAKE ENHANCEMENT IS SOMEWHAT IN QUESTION DEPENDING ON THE
STEERING FLOW. NORTHERN CAYUGA AND NORTHEASTERN WAYNE WILL HAVE TO
BE MONITORED FOR POSSIBLE ADVISORIES.

LAKE EFFECT WILL CONTINUE FRIDAY NIGHT SOUTHEAST OF LAKE ONTARIO BUT
THE FLOW WILL WEAKEN AS A RIDGE MOVES IN FROM THE WEST. MOST OF THE
ACTIVITY SHOULD BE DONE BY SATURDAY MORNING.

NOT MUCH TURN AROUND TIME AS ANOTHER DIGGING UPPER TROUGH OVER THE
MISSISSIPPI VALLEY SPAWNS A SURFACE LOW OVER THE OHIO VALLEY
SATURDAY. THIS SYSTEM WILL BRING A GENERAL SNOWFALL THE OUR FORECAST
AREA SATURDAY AFTERNOON AND NIGHT. PROJECTED SOUNDINGS HIGHLY FAVOR
SNOW AS PRECIP TYPE.I

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
THE GFS AND ECMWF ARE VERY CLOSE FOR SUNDAY AS THE OHIO VALLEY LOW
MENTIONED IN THE SHORT TERM TRACKS TO NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND AND
EVENTUALLY THE CANADIAN MARITIMES BY MONDAY. THE NORTHWEST FLOW ON
THE BACK SIDE OF THIS SYSTEM WILL BRING A FRESH SUPPLY OF COLD AIR
AND A RENEWED THREAT OF LAKE EFFECT SNOW FOR SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY
ON A NORTHWEST FLOW.

THE UPPER PATTERN SHIFTS TO MORE ZONAL FOR TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY
WITH A SURFACE HIGH FORECAST TO MOVE ACROSS THE AREA. THIS WILL
LIKELY BRING BENIGN WEATHER BACK INTO OUR REGION WITH TEMPERATURES
BACK TO A LITTLE ABOVE NORMAL.

&&

.AVIATION /08Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
MIXED RAIN AND SNOW WILL CHANGE TO ALL SNOW AFTER MIDNIGHT,
LOWERING CEILINGS AND VISIBILITY TO IFR...THEN TAPER OFF OVERNIGHT
WITH IFR CEILINGS AND MVFR TO VFR VISIBILITY IN LIGHT SNOW. EXPECT
GENERAL MVFR CEILINGS ON THURSDAY WITH OCCASIONAL IFR CONDITIONS
IN SNOW SHOWERS, EXCEPT THE WESTERN SOUTHERN TIER AND AREAS EAST
OF LAKE ONTARIO...WHERE UPSLOPE PROCESSES WILL BRING OCCASIONAL
IFR IN SNOW GOING THROUGH THURSDAY.

OUTLOOK...
THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY...OCCASIONAL IFR IN SNOW/SNOW SHOWERS.
SATURDAY...MVFR/IFR IN LIGHT SNOW.
SUNDAY...MVFR/VFR IN SCATTERED SNOW SHOWERS.
