AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BUFFALO NY
1254 PM EST THU JAN 15 2009

.SYNOPSIS...
DEEP MIDWINTER CONDITIONS WILL BE THE RULE ACROSS WESTERN AND
CENTRAL NEW YORK FOR THE REST OF THE WEEK WITH BITTERLY COLD
TEMPERATURES. ARCTIC AIR WILL FOLLOW FOR TONIGHT INTO
SATURDAY...WHICH WILL BRING THE POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY LAKE EFFECT SNOW
TO THE EAST OF THE LAKES. SOME MODERATION IN TEMPERATURES IS
EXPECTED BY LATER IN THE WEEKEND AND INTO NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH FRIDAY/...
AS OF 1050 AM...LIGHT LAKE EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS CONTINUE SOUTH AND
SOUTHEAST OF BOTH LAKES ERIE AND ONTARIO AS OF THIS WRITING...WITH
THE ACTIVITY STARTING TO INCREASE IN ORGANIZATION A LITTLE ACROSS
CHAUTAUQUA COUNTY AS THE FLOW BECOMES A BIT BETTER ALIGNED OUT OF
THE NORTHWEST. WINDS WILL GRADUALLY BACK TO MORE OF A WESTERLY TO
WEST-NORTHWESTERLY DIRECTION WITH TIME THE REMAINDER OF THE
DAY...AND THIS WILL CAUSE THE ACTIVITY TO SHIFT NORTHWARD/EASTWARD
AND BECOME A LITTLE BETTER ORGANIZED OFF OF BOTH LAKES THIS
AFTERNOON...MOST NOTICEABLY OFF OF LAKE ERIE WHERE THE STEERING
WINDS WILL BECOME FAIRLY WELL ALIGNED BY MID TO LATE AFTERNOON.
THIS SAID...RELATIVELY DRY AIR AT THE LOW LEVELS WILL HELP TO KEEP
ANY NEW ACCUMULATIONS ON THE MINOR SIDE...WITH LOCALIZED AMOUNTS
OF 1-3 POSSIBLE WITHIN THE MOST PERSISTENT BANDS THROUGH THE
REMAINDER OF THE DAY.

THE GOING FORECAST HAD THIS SCENARIO FAIRLY WELL COVERED...SO HAVE
ONLY MADE SOME MINOR ADJUSTMENTS TO POPS/WX/SKY THIS AFTERNOON...
MAINLY TO BETTER TIME THE SHIFT IN LOCATION OF THE LAKE EFFECT
SNOWS...AND TO REDUCE POPS/SKY COVER A BIT OUTSIDE OF THE MAIN
LAKE EFFECT AREAS. BASED ON CURRENT OBS WHICH SHOW TEMPS WARMING A
BIT FASTER THAN ANTICIPATED...HAVE ALSO RAISED AFTERNOON MAX
TEMPS A FEW DEGREES ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA.

AS FAR AS WIND CHILL FLAGS GO...WE CURRENTLY ARE GETTING SOME
ADVISORY-CRITERIA WIND CHILLS ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE NORTH
COUNTRY...BUT AS THESE SHOULD ONLY LAST ANOTHER COUPLE OF
HOURS...AND SINCE THE PREVIOUS WIND CHILL ADVISORY FOR THIS AREA
WAS DROPPED MUCH EARLIER THIS MORNING...WILL NOT ISSUE ANY NEW
FLAGS FOR THIS AT THIS TIME. LOOKING A BIT FURTHER OUT TO TONIGHT
AND FRIDAY...PRELIMINARY INDICATIONS ARE THAT THE CURRENT WIND
CHILL WARNINGS MAY BE A BIT OVERDONE...AS MOST LOCATIONS OUTSIDE
THE NORTH COUNTRY MAY BE MUCH MORE LIKELY TO GET A LONGER PERIOD
OF ADVISORY- LEVEL WIND CHILLS INSTEAD. HAVE NOT MADE ANY CHANGES
TO THE CURRENT WARNINGS FOR NOW...BUT THESE MAY NEED TO BE
CONSIDERED FOR THE AFTERNOON PACKAGE ONCE WE GET A LOOK AT THE
FULL SUITE OF 12Z MODEL DATA.

AND ON ONE FINAL NOTE...VISIBLE SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWS THAT MUCH
OF LAKE ERIE HAS ICED OVER AS OF MID MORNING...WITH THE ONLY
REMAINING APPRECIABLE SWATH OF OPEN WATER NOW LOCATED ACROSS THE
SOUTH HALF OF THE LAKE BETWEEN ASHTABULA OHIO AND DUNKIRK. THE
REST OF THE LAKE HAS QUITE A BIT OF ICE COVER...AND BARRING ANY
MAJOR THAWS...THIS SHOULD LIMIT THE POTENTIAL FOR SIGNIFICANT
LAKE ERIE-DRIVEN SNOWS FOR AREAS NORTH OF SOUTHERN ERIE AND
WYOMING COUNTIES AND THE SOUTHERN TIER IN THE COMING WEEKS. AS FOR
LAKE ONTARIO...THAT LAKE REMAINS LARGELY OPEN...THOUGH OUR RECENT
COLD SPELL HAS CAUSED A GOOD AREA OF ICE COVER TO FORM AT THE
NORTHEASTERN END OF THE LAKE...MAINLY FROM MEXICO BAY NORTHWARD TO
THE SAINT LAWRENCE RIVER.

THAT IS ALL FOR NOW...THE EARLY MORNING NEAR TERM DISCUSSION FOLLOWS
IN ITS ENTIRETY BELOW...

A VERY COMPLEX FORECAST THIS MORNING WITH SEVERAL HEADLINES TO
CONSIDER. BASED ON WHAT IS HAPPENING AS OF 07Z THE NAM WILL BE OUR
MODEL OF CHOICE DURING THIS PERIOD.

THE ENTIRE EASTERN HALF OF NORTH AMERICA REMAINS ENTRENCHED IN AN
ARCTIC AIRMASS ASSOCIATED WITH A LONG WAVE UPPER TROUGH DRAINING THE
POLAR REGION. CURRENTLY (07Z) A SYNOPTIC LOW WAS CENTERED NEAR
WESTERN MARYLAND AND NORTHERN VIRGINIA WITH VERY WEAK RADAR RETURNS
ACROSS MOST OF OUR CWA. VISIBILITIES FOR THE MOST PART WERE 3 MILES
OR MORE WITH THE LOWEST ACROSS ROCHESTER AND DANSVILLE. HEAVIER SNOW
WAS FALLING SOUTHEAST OF OUR REGION INCLUDING THE SOUTHERN FINGER
LAKES BUT THIS WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE EAST BY MORNING. OUR ATTENTION
MUST TURN TO LAKE EFFECT POTENTIAL.

THERE IS AN IMPRESSIVE TEA KETTLE EVENT ONGOING NORTH OF THE LAKE
ONTARIO SHORE (AT 07Z). THE NAM 12 OMEGA FIELD FROM 1000 TO 850 MB
HAS A VERY GOOD HANDLE ON THIS AND PUSHES THE ACTIVITY ONSHORE
BEFORE DAYBREAK THEN SOUTHWARD BEFORE BECOMING DISRUPTED BY 12Z.
WITH THE SPEED THIS IS MOVING THROUGH WE DO NOT EXPECT ADVISORY
SNOWFALL ACCUMULATIONS. WE WILL HAVE HIGH POPS SOUTH OF LAKE ONTARIO
TODAY BECAUSE OF THE EXTREME COLD BUT WILL DROP THE ADVISORIES WITH
THIS ISSUANCE.

OUR NEXT CONCERN WILL BE THE LAKE EFFECT SNOW WARNING WE ALREADY
HAVE IN PLACE FOR SOUTHERN ERIE...CHAUTAUQUA AND CATTARAUGUS COUNTIES
FROM NOON TODAY UNTIL 1 AM SATURDAY. THIS STILL LOOKS GOOD AS
PROJECTED SOUNDINGS AND WIND FIELDS BECOME VERY FAVORABLE
     ESPECIALLY TONIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT AS A COUPLE OF SHORT
WAVES MOVE SOUTHEASTWARD WITHIN THE UPPER TROUGH. WARNING TIMES ARE
STARTING A LITTLE EARLY BUT WE WILL NOT CHANGE THE BEGINNING TIME
FOR CONTINUITY SAKE. THE ENDING TIME MIGHT HAVE TO EVENTUALLY BE
LATER.

ACTIVITY OFF LAKE ONTARIO IS A LITTLE MORE PROBLEMATIC. CURRENT
FORECAST HAS A LAKE EFFECT SNOW WATCH UP STARTING AT 1 PM TODAY FOR
JEFFERSON...LEWIS AND OSWEGO COUNTIES. ALTHOUGH THERE WILL LIKELY BE
LAKE EFFECT SOUTHEAST OF LAKE ONTARIO AS MENTIONED ABOVE...A GOOD
WESTERLY FLOW OFF LAKE ONTARIO DOES NOT REALLY SET UP UNTIL FRIDAY
MORNING. WE WILL KEEP THE WATCH UP BUT DELAY THE START TIME UNTIL
FRIDAY MORNING.

OTHER HEADLINES TO CONTEND WITH ARE THE WIND CHILL ISSUES. WE WILL
CANCEL THE ADVISORIES UP FOR THE NORTH COUNTRY WITH THIS ISSUANCE
BASED ON VERY LIGHT SURFACE WINDS. THE WIND FIELDS STRENGTHEN LATE
TONIGHT FOR THE WEST AND CONTINUE THROUGH FRIDAY. WE WILL ISSUE WIND
CHILL WARNINGS FOR PART OF THAT TIME PERIOD FOR MUCH OF THE AREA
EXCEPT FOR JEFFERSON AND LEWIS COUNTIES WHERE THE CRITERIA IS COLDER
AND THE WINDS WILL BE LIGHTER LONGER. EVENTUALLY WIND CHILL
HEADLINES WILL HAVE TO BE CONSIDERED THERE AS WELL.

&&

.SHORT TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
FOCUS DURING THIS PERIOD WILL BE EXTREMELY COLD AIR AND THE
CONTINUATION OF SIGNIFICANT LAKE SNOWS EAST OF THE LAKES.

AS FOR THE TEMPERATURES...VERY COLD OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL ONCE AGAIN
FALL TO THE LOW SINGLE NUMBERS IN URBAN AREAS AND ALONG THE
IMMEDIATE LAKESHORES...FROM ZERO TO -10 ACROSS THE REMAINDER OF
WESTERN AND CENTRAL NY...AND TO THE -20S IN THE BLACK RIVER AND
SAINT LAWRENCE VALLEYS. WIND CHILLS WILL BE SIGNIFICANT FACTOR IN
THE FRIGID CONDITIONS AS WINDS WILL HOLD ABOVE THE 10 MPH THRESHOLD
AND WIND CHILLS WILL AGAIN FALL BELOW -15 AND EVEN TO -20...THUS
WIND CHILL WARNINGS WILL LIKELY BE NEEDED FOR FRIDAY NIGHT AND EVEN
INTO THE EARLY DAYTIME HOURS OF SATURDAY.

AS FOR THE LAKE EFFECT...THIS COULD BE A SERIOUS AND MAJOR
EVENT...ESPECIALLY OFF LAKE ONTARIO.

FOR LAKE ONTARIO...GFS IS TOO GROSS IN RESOLUTION TO PICK THE
DETAILS OF A NARROW LAKE EFFECT BAND AS WILL SET UP ALONG THE LENGTH
OF LAKE ONTARIO. THIS WILL CONTINUE TO FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY
MORNING...EVEN INTENSIFYING FRIDAY EVENING AS A MULTI LAKE
CONNECTION DEVELOPS. USED NAM12 1000-850MB VERTICAL VELOCITY FIELDS
TO DELINEATE THE LAKE BAND AND THERE WILL BE A STEADY STATE PLUME
ALONG THE FULL LENGTH OF LAKE ONTARIO DIRECTED TO THE TUG HILL
PLATEAU FOR ANOTHER 18 HOURS...THEN INCREASING SHEAR WILL PUSH THE
LAKE BAND SOUTHWARD. THIS WILL DISRUPT THE BAND BY EARLY SATURDAY
AFTERNOON. LAKE INDUCED EQUILIBRIUM LEVELS WILL BE FROM 12000FT TO
15000FT WITH STEEP LAPSE RATES...8C TO 9C PER KM...POINTING TOWARD
DEEP AND VERY ACTIVE CONVECTION WITHIN THE CORE OF THE LAKE SNOW
PLUME.

AS FOR LAKE ERIE...CONTINUATION OF LAKE SNOW INTO THE WESTERN
SOUTHERN TIER...REMAINING NEARLY STEADY ALONG THE CHAUTAUQUA RIDGE
WITH THE 270-260 FLOW. WILL HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL IT/S MORE CERTAIN
THAT WINDS WILL BACK AND BRING THE SNOW UP TO WYOMING COUNTY. AS
ON LAKE ONTARIO...THE SNOW BAND OFF LAKE ERIE WILL BE DISRUPTED BY
INCREASING SHEAR...AND SURFACE WINDS BECOMING SOUTHERLY BY LATE
SATURDAY AFTERNOON.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
UNUSUALLY STRONG PNA PATTERN WILL PERSIST DURING THIS PERIOD. THIS
IS DEFINED AS A LARGE WESTERN RIDGE AND DEEP EASTERN TROF. THE
RELIABLE ECMWF NOW SUGGESTS NO BREAKDOWN RIGHT ON THROUGH THE WEEK
AS THESE BLOCKS ARE USUALLY QUITE PERSISTENT.

IN ANY CASE...TEMPS WILL REMAIN WELL BELOW NORMAL THROUGH THIS
PERIOD WITH CLIPPERS PASSING BY TO OUR SOUTH SAT NT/SUN AM AND AGAIN
AROUND TUES NT. THE SAT NT/SUN SYSTEM IS LOOKING MORE IMPRESSIVE ON
00Z GFS...MOVING RATHER SLOWLY FOR A CLIPPER.  THIS WOULD GIVE US A
GENERAL  LGT-MOD SNOWFALL DURING THAT PERIOD. WILL GO WITH THE LOW
LIKELY POPS AS OFFERED BY MAV AND MEX MOS.

HIGH TEMPS STABILIZE IN THE 20S FOR MON AND TUE...THEN MODERATE
CLOSE TO SEASONAL NORMALS IN THE UPR 20S TO LOW 30S FOR WED. LOW
WILL BE IN THE TEENS FOR THE MOST PART...SINGLE NUMBER STILL FOR THE
EASTERN LAKE ONTARIO AREA. BELOW ZERO TEMPS SHOULD BE OUT OF THE
PICTURE FOR NEXT WEEK.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
IN GENERAL...CONDITIONS THROUGH THE PERIOD WILL VARY FROM
LIFR/IFR IN AREAS OF LAKE EFFECT SNOW TO VFR ELSEWHERE. SOME
SPECIFICS ON THE LOCATION OF LAKE EFFECT ACTIVITY...

OFF OF LAKE ERIE...SCATTERED LAKE EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS SOUTHEAST
OF THE LAKE WILL BECOME MORE NUMEROUS AND CONSIDERABLY BETTER
ORGANIZED THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING AS SHEAR DECREASES AND WINDS
BECOME MORE WESTERLY. THIS WILL RESULT IN THE CURRENT MVFR/IFR
CONDITIONS WITHIN THE HEAVIEST LAKE SNOWS WORSENING TO LIFR THIS
EVENING...THEN REMAINING IN THE LIFR/IFR RANGE THROUGH FRIDAY
EAST-SOUTHEAST OF THE LAKE...GENERALLY IMPACTING LOCATIONS BETWEEN
KDKK AND KERI...INCLUDING THE KJHW TERMINAL.

OFF OF LAKE ONTARIO...SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS LIGHT LAKE EFFECT SNOW
SHOWERS WILL CONTINUE SOUTH AND SOUTHEAST OF THE LAKE INTO
FRIDAY MORNING ON A WEST-NORTHWESTERLY TO NORTHWESTERLY FLOW...WITH
REDUCTIONS TO IFR COMMONPLACE WITHIN THE HEAVIEST ACTIVITY. ALL
OF THIS WILL THEN LIFT NORTHWARD INTO THE LAKE ITSELF DURING THE
LATE MORNING AND EARLY AFTERNOON HOURS AS THE FLOW BECOMES MORE
WESTERLY...AND MAY EVENTUALLY IMPACT THE NORTH COUNTRY /INCLUDING THE
KART TERMINAL/ LATER FRIDAY AFTERNOON.

FRIDAY NIGHT...VFR EXCEPT LOCAL IFR IN LAKE EFFECT SNOWS EAST OF
LAKES ERIE AND ONTARIO.
SATURDAY...VFR...DETERIORATING TO IFR LATE IN THE AFTERNOON IN
SNOW.
SUNDAY...IFR/MVFR IN OCCASIONAL SNOW.
MONDAY...MAINLY VFR.
TUESDAY...VFR/MVFR IN SNOW SHOWERS.

&&

.MARINE...
LIGHT WINDS BECOMING NORTHEAST AND THEN BACK TO NORTHWEST AGAIN AS
THE SURFACE LOW PASSES WELL TO THE SOUTH OF THE REGION. THE NEXT
PERIOD OF STRONGER WINDS WILL BE ON FRIDAY AS A FRONT APPROACHES
FROM THE NORTH AND TIGHTENS THE PRESSURE GRADIENT...WITH FRESHENING
WESTERLIES DURING FRIDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH SATURDAY MORNING. MARINE
FLAGS MAY BE NECESSARY AGAIN AT THAT TIME. WINDS TURN LIGHT AGAIN
SATURDAY AS A WEAK RIDGE BUILDS EAST...THEN TURN EASTERLY SUNDAY AS
THE NEXT CLIPPER PASSES BY TO OUR SOUTH.

THE NEARSHORE FORECAST FOR LAKE ERIE AND THE NIAGARA RIVER WILL
END WEDNESDAY EVENING AND RESUME IN MARCH. NEARSHORE FORECASTS FOR
LAKE ONTARIO WILL CONTINUE.

&&

.CLIMATE...
UPCOMING COLD SPELL IS COMING AT THE COLDEST TIME OF THE YEAR SO
RECORDS WILL BE TOUGH TO BEAT.

.HERE ARE THE RECORD LOWS FOR BUF/ROC FOR THE THURS-SAT PERIOD.
.THU 1/15.....BUFFALO -12 (1957)...ROCHESTER -16 (1957)
