AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BUFFALO NY
643 PM EST SUN JAN 24 2010

.SYNOPSIS...
A STRONG AREA OF LOW PRESSURE WILL STALL OVER THE WESTERN GREAT
LAKES TONIGHT AND MONDAY BEFORE HEADING INTO QUEBEC BY TUESDAY. A
TRAILING COLD FRONT WILL MOVE SLOWLY EAST ACROSS THE AREA TONIGHT
AND MONDAY WITH WIDESPREAD MODERATE TO HEAVY RAINFALL AND VERY MILD
TEMPERATURES. THE HEAVY RAIN COMBINED WITH MELTING SNOW MAY RESULT
IN SOME MINOR FLOODING IN SOME AREAS. COLDER AIR WILL FILTER BACK
INTO THE REGION MONDAY NIGHT WITH A RETURN TO TYPICAL MID WINTER
COLD BY TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY ALONG WITH SOME SNOW AND LAKE EFFECT
SNOW. EVEN COLDER TEMPERATURES WILL ARRIVE BY THE END OF THE WEEK
WITH WELL BELOW AVERAGE TEMPERATURES.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH MONDAY/...
THROUGH 300 PM...RAIN HAS SPREAD INTO THE WESTERN THIRD OF THE
STATE...JUST SHY OF ROCHESTER. CONVECTIVE ELEMENTS REMAIN OF THE
BAND...WITH SOME DECENT RAINFALL RATES STILL IN PLACE. GENERALLY
FOLLOW 12Z NAM/GFS BLEND FOR TIMING...THOUGH DO SPEED THIS UP A BIT
THROUGH THIS EVENING BASED ON RADAR TRENDS WHICH ARE FASTER THAN
THESE MODELS.

THIS FORECAST PRESENTS SEVERAL ISSUES. BEFORE GETTING ONTO LESS
IMPORTANT DETAILS...LETS LOOK AT THE BIG ISSUES.

FLOODING POTENTIAL...WILL ISSUE A FLOOD WATCH FOR THE ENTIRE CWA.
SINCE YESTERDAY...MODELS HAVE STEADILY INCREASED THE QPF FORECAST
FOR WESTERN NEW YORK (WHILE ITS LOWERED TO THE EAST). THIS IS LIKELY
DUE TO THE SLOWER PROGRESSION OF THE FRONT...WHICH HAS ALLOWED MORE
TIME FOR MOISTURE IN EASTERN TENNESSEE AND KENTUCKY TO MAKE ITS WAY
INTO WESTERN NEW YORK. PRECIPITATION IS DYNAMICALLY DRIVEN BY A
STRONG LOW LEVEL JET...AND THEN BY A FRONTAL BOUNDARY. CONSULTING
THE NAM/GFS/UKMET/GEM...BASICALLY ALL HAVE SHIFTED...PROVIDING A
GENERAL CONSENSUS WITH AN INCH TO AN INCH AND A HALF OF QPF ACROSS
THE REGION. THERE IS SOME INDICATION OF SHADOWING IN THE FINGER
LAKES REGION...BUT DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH CONFIDENCE IN THIS TO NOT
CARRY A WATCH IN THIS AREA. SEE HYDROLOGY SECTION FOR MORE ON THIS
ISSUE.

STRONG WINDS...AS DISCUSSED...A STRONG LOW LEVEL JET WILL CROSS THE
REGION FROM WEST TO EAST...WITH 60 TO 70 KTS CROSSING ALOFT. LOOKING
AT FORECAST SOUNDINGS...A FAIRLY STRONG INVERSION IS FORECAST TO BE
IN PLACE...WHICH WILL LIKELY LIMIT MIXING OF WINDS ALOFT. AS OF 300
PM...UPSTREAM OBSERVATIONS UNDERNEATH THIS JET ARE NOT REPORTING
PARTICULARLY STRONG WIND GUSTS...LENDING SUPPORT TO THE MODEL
SOUNDINGS. GIVEN THIS...WILL NOT ISSUE ANY WIND ADVISORY PRODUCTS AT
THIS TIME...BUT WILL MENTION GUSTY WINDS IN THE SOUTHERN TIER AND
THE TUG HILL REGION. STRONGEST GUSTS WILL OCCUR ACROSS HIGHER
TERRAIN...IN WESTERN SECTIONS THIS EVENING...AND IN THE NORTH
COUNTRY LATE TONIGHT.

OTHERWISE...THE STORY TONIGHT WILL BE RAIN AND WARM TEMPERATURES.
FEEL MODELS ARE LIKELY UNDER-DOING THE WARMING THAT WILL OCCUR
TONIGHT IN MODEL SURFACE TEMPERATURES...WITH TEMPERATURES EXPECTED
TO RISE TO NEAR 50 IN MOST LOCATIONS OVERNIGHT...IMMEDIATELY AHEAD
OF THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY. THIS IS HAPPENING UPSTREAM...AND SEE NO
REASON WHY IT WILL NOT HAPPEN HERE AS WELL.

RAIN SHOULD TAPER OFF FROM WEST TO EAST MONDAY MORNING. HIGHS ON
MONDAY ARE DECEIVING...AS THEY WILL OCCUR IN THE MORNING...WITH
TEMPERATURES FALLING IN THE AFTERNOON. IN FACT...BY SUNSET...IT WILL
LIKELY BE COOL ENOUGH FOR PRECIPITATION TO CHANGE OVER TO SNOW
SHOWERS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
AT THE START OF THE PERIOD AN ANOMALOUSLY DEEP PLUME OF MOISTURE
WILL HAVE SHIFTED WELL EAST OF THE AREA INTO NEW ENGLAND. OUR
ATTENTION THEN TURNS BACK TO MORE TYPICAL WINTER WEATHER. THE MAIN
MID LEVEL TROUGH AXIS WILL SHIFT ACROSS THE AREA MONDAY NIGHT AND
EARLY TUESDAY...LOOSING AMPLITUDE WITH TIME AND EASTERN EXTENT.
RELATIVELY WEAK LARGE SCALE FORCING AND DEEP SYNOPTIC SCALE WRAP
AROUND MOISTURE WILL PRODUCE SNOW SHOWERS ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA
WITH SOME MINOR ACCUMULATIONS POSSIBLE OVERNIGHT. BOUNDARY LAYER
TEMPS MAY INITIALLY BE A LITTLE ABOVE FREEZING DURING THE EVENING
BUT WILL DROP BELOW FREEZING FROM WEST TO EAST OVERNIGHT. 850MB
TEMPS DROP TO AROUND -8C BY 12Z TUESDAY...PROBABLY STAYING JUST WARM
ENOUGH TO PRECLUDE ANY LAKE ENHANCEMENT.

DURING THE DAY TUESDAY THE MAIN MID LEVEL TROUGH SHIFTS EAST AND
CONTINUES TO WEAKEN...SO EXPECT A GENERAL WEST TO EAST DECREASE IN
SYNOPTIC SCALE SNOW SHOWERS. OUR ATTENTION THEN TURNS TO THE
MESOSCALE WITH A COMBINATION OF LAKE AND UPSLOPE CONCERNS. MAY
EVENTUALLY NEED HEADLINES FOR THIS ACTIVITY...BUT TOO EARLY TO
CONSIDER NOW ESPECIALLY GIVEN SHORT TERM HYDRO ISSUES.

OFF LAKE ERIE...850MB TEMPS DROP TO AROUND -10C DURING THE DAY.
NORMALLY THIS WOULD NOT BE COLD ENOUGH FOR A PURE LAKE RESPONSE...
HOWEVER GIVEN THE VERY DEEP SYNOPTIC SCALE MOISTURE AND SOME LARGE
SCALE LIFT IN PLACE...THERE MAY BE ENOUGH INSTABILITY TO SUPPORT
SOME LAKE ENHANCEMENT. NAM BUFKIT PROFILES INDICATE LAKE INDUCED
CAPE OF 100-150J/KG AND EQUILIBRIUM LEVELS OF 6-8K FEET. THIS IS A
VERY MARGINAL CASE...AND WITH ALL MARGINAL CASES INHERENTLY
DIFFICULT TO FORECAST. FOR NOW HAVE INDICATED AN AREA OF HIGHER POPS
NORTHEAST OF THE LAKE. WITH THE DEEP/MOIST CYCLONIC FLOW ALSO EXPECT
PLENTY OF UPSLOPE ENHANCEMENT INTO THE HIGHER TERRAIN OF SKI COUNTRY
AND THE WESTERN SOUTHERN TIER...AND HAVE GONE WITH HIGHER POPS IN
THIS AREA AS WELL. BEST ESTIMATE RIGHT NOW IS FOR A FEW INCHES
ACROSS THE BUF AREA WITH LAKE ENHANCEMENT AND ALSO SOUTHERN TIER
WITH UPSLOPE.

TUESDAY NIGHT THE FLOW BECOMES MORE WESTERLY AND THE AIRMASS BECOMES
COLDER WITH 850MB TEMPS DROPPING TO AROUND -14C. THIS WILL BE COLD
ENOUGH FOR A PURE LAKE RESPONSE...BUT SYNOPTIC SCALE MOISTURE WILL
ALSO BE QUICKLY DECREASING AS WELL. THE OVERALL MARGINAL LAKE
INSTABILITY AND WANING MOISTURE MAY TEND TO LIMIT THE INTENSITY OF
LAKE SNOW...BUT STILL EXPECT AT LEAST SOME ACCUMULATION OVERNIGHT.
ON WEDNESDAY THE BOUNDARY LAYER FLOW BACKS TO THE SOUTHWEST AGAIN.
STILL JUST COLD ENOUGH TO SUPPORT SOME LAKE RESPONSE...BUT LIMITED
MOISTURE MAY ONCE AGAIN LIMIT THE STRENGTH OF LAKE SNOWS. FOR NOW
JUST INDICATED SOME LIKELY POPS MOVING BACK NORTH TOWARDS METRO
BUFFALO.

OFF LAKE ONTARIO...EXPECT A SIMILAR SCENARIO WITH 850MB TEMPS NOT
QUITE COLD ENOUGH TO SUPPORT A PURE LAKE RESPONSE TUESDAY. IT DOES
APPEAR COLD ENOUGH FOR SOME LAKE ENHANCEMENT HOWEVER...WITH A
GREATER INFLUENCE LIKELY BEING UPSLOPE FLOW INTO THE TUG HILL.
EXPECT SOME ACCUMULATIONS ACROSS THE ENTIRE EASTERN LAKE ONTARIO
REGION...WITH THE HEAVIER SNOWFALL TIED CLOSELY TO THE TERRAIN OF
THE TUG HILL. EXPECT A FEW INCHES ACROSS LOWER ELEVATIONS...BUT THE
TUG MAY EXCEED WATCH/WARNING CRITERIA. AIRMASS BECOMES COLDER
TUESDAY NIGHT WITH 850MB TEMPS BOTTOMING OUT AROUND -14C BY
WEDNESDAY MORNING. BOUNDARY LAYER FLOW BECOMES MORE WNW LATE TUESDAY
NIGHT...SO EXPECT LAKE ENHANCED SNOW ACROSS THE TUG HILL TO GIVE WAY
TO MORE PURE LAKE SNOWS THAT WILL PUSH TO THE SOUTHEAST CORNER OF
THE LAKE BAY DAYBREAK WEDNESDAY. SYNOPTIC SCALE MOISTURE WILL
QUICKLY DECREASE LATER TUESDAY NIGHT. THIS FACT COMBINED WITH
MARGINAL LAKE INSTABILITY AND LACK OF TERRAIN AT THE SOUTHEAST
CORNER OF THE LAKE WILL PROBABLY LIMIT SNOW INTENSITY. DURING THE
DAY WEDNESDAY...THE BOUNDARY LAYER FLOW BACKS TO THE SOUTHWEST
AGAIN...PUSHING WEAKENING LAKE SNOWS BACK ACROSS THE TUG AND TOWARDS
WATERTOWN.

FINALLY LATER WEDNESDAY NIGHT ANOTHER NORTHERN STREAM TROUGH WILL
MOVE INTO THE UPPER GREAT LAKES WITH AN ASSOCIATED SURFACE LOW
MOVING INTO THE OTTAWA VALLEY BY 12Z THURSDAY. A WEAK SOUTHERN
STREAM WAVE AND ASSOCIATED MOISTURE PLUME WILL BECOME CAPTURED BY
THIS SYSTEM...WITH MOISTURE OVERSPREADING THE LOWER LAKES LATER
WEDNESDAY NIGHT. MODEL GUIDANCE HAS BEEN RELATIVELY CONSISTENT WITH
THIS SCENARIO THE PAST DAY OR SO...AND ENOUGH CONFIDENCE NOW TO
INCREASE POPS TO LIKELY FOR LATE WEDNESDAY NIGHT. MAY ALSO STILL
HAVE A LITTLE LAKE EFFECT WEDNESDAY EVENING NORTHEAST OF LAKES ERIE
AND ONTARIO...BUT THIS SHOULD END OVERNIGHT WITH MODERATING TEMPS
ALOFT AND BOUNDARY LAYER WINDS BACKING TO THE SSW.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
A BLAST OF ARCTIC AIR AND SNOW WILL CROSS THE CWA EARLY IN THIS
FORECAST PERIOD SENDING TEMPERATURES TO BELOW NORMAL. LAKE EFFECT
SNOW WILL DEVELOP DOWNWIND OF BOTH LAKES THURSDAY NIGHT BEFORE
DIMINISHING INTO THE EARLY WEEKEND.

A POLAR VORTEX NEAR NORTHERN BAFFIN ISLAND SUNDAY AFTERNOON WILL
DROP SOUTHWARD ACROSS CENTRAL CANADA DRIVING A SFC COLD FRONT ACROSS
THE AREA ON THURSDAY. THE 12Z ECMWF, GGEM, GFS AND GFS ENSEMBLE
MEMBERS ARE ALL IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH THE UPPER LEVEL FLOW TO START
THIS TIME PERIOD. THUS WILL INCREASE CHANCES FOR SNOW TO LIKELY
ALONG THIS COLD FRONT THURSDAY. THERE IS SOME HINT OF A SECONDARY
ARCTIC FRONT BY THE 12Z GFS WHICH COULD TRIGGER ADDITIONAL SNOW
SHOWERS INTO THURSDAYS NIGHT...ESPECIALLY ACROSS EASTERN LAKE
ONTARIO. GFS BUFKIT SOUNDINGS SUGGEST THAT WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO MIX
DOWN STRONGER WINDS JUST ABOVE THE SURFACE THURSDAY BEHIND THE COLD
FRONT LEADING TO THE POSSIBILITY OF BLOWING SNOW FOR THURSDAY AND
INTO THURSDAY NIGHT.

A -22C TO -24C 850 MB AIRMASS WILL CROSS THE REGION THURSDAY NIGHT
SENDING TEMPERATURES MUCH BELOW NORMAL. WITH GFS MODEL CONSISTENCY
IN THE FORECAST TEMPERATURE OF THIS 850 AIRMASS...WILL FEEL MORE
CONFIDENT THAT TEMPERATURES WILL NOT RISE OUT OF THE TEENS ON
FRIDAY.

HIGH PRESSURE WILL CONTINUE TO NOSE INTO THE REGION FROM THE
NORTHERN PLAINS ON FRIDAY NIGHT. TEMPERATURES WILL AGAIN DROP 5 TO
10 DEGREES BELOW NORMAL OVERNIGHT FRIDAY WITH MANY AREAS DROPPING
INTO THE SINGLE DIGITS OR LOWER.

WHILE IT WILL CERTAINLY BE COLD ENOUGH FOR LES DOWNWIND OF THE GREAT
LAKES...THE LACK OF ABUNDANT LOW LEVEL MOISTURE AND COMBINED WIND
SHEER FOR LES IS NOT CONDUCIVE FOR LIKELY POPS. WILL CONTINUE CHC
POPS FOR LES THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY...WITH THE HIGHER POPS
SOUTHEAST OF THE TWO LAKES.

MODELS DEVELOP A STORM SYSTEM ALONG THE EASTERN SEABOARD THIS
WEEKEND. THIS SYSTEM SHOULD REMAIN EAST OF OUR AREA...AND SUBSIDENCE
ON THE PERIPHERY OF THE SYSTEM MAY PROMOTE MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES ACROSS
OUR AREA SATURDAY. ANOTHER SHORT WAVE WILL DIVE ACROSS THE AREA LATE
IN THE WEEKEND OR EARLY NEXT WEEK.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
RAIN WILL REMAIN STEADY TONIGHT. INTENSITY WILL BE MAINLY LIGHT...
BUT POCKETS OF MODERATE TO OCCASIONALLY HEAVY RAIN WILL BE
POSSIBLE OVER THE ENTIRE AREA. EXPECT WIDESPREAD MVFR CONDITIONS
AND SOME AREAS OF IFR VSBY IN THE HEAVIER RAINFALL. THIS RAIN WILL
MOVE EAST INTO THE EASTERN LAKE ONTARIO REGION LATE TONIGHT AND
MONDAY MORNING WITH CONDITIONS DETERIORATING AT KART AFTER 04Z.

FOLLOWING THE STEADY RAIN...WINDS BECOME SSW LATE TONIGHT AND MONDAY
MORNING ACROSS WESTERN NY. THIS MAY PRODUCE A PERIOD OF IFR CIGS
DURING THE MORNING PUSH AT KBUF-KIAG-KJHW WITH WARM/MOIST AIR
CROSSING THE COLD LAKE ERIE WATERS. HAVE INCLUDED IFR CIGS IN THE
TAFS BUT WORST CASE SCENARIO MAY BRING A PERIOD OF FOG AND LOW CIGS
APPROACHING AIRFIELD MINIMUMS FOR A FEW HOURS MONDAY MORNING.
STRONGER SOUTHWEST FLOW WILL DEVELOP BEHIND A COLD FRONT BY LATE
MORNING WHICH SHOULD BRING CIGS/VSBY BACK TO MVFR.

STRONG LOW LEVEL WIND SHEAR WILL SET UP TONIGHT ACROSS THE AREA WITH
A STRONG 60-70 KNOT SOUTHERLY LOW LEVEL JET. PILOTS SHOULD BE AWARE
OF RAPID LOSS OF HEADWIND AND LIFT ON FINAL APPROACH.

OUTLOOK...
TUESDAY...WIDESPREAD MVFR IN SNOW SHOWERS WITH LOCAL IFR NORTHEAST
OF LAKES ERIE AND ONTARIO IN LAKE ENHANCED SNOW.
WEDNESDAY...VFR/MVFR IN SCATTERED LAKE EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS. LOCAL
IFR IN HEAVIER LAKE SNOWS EAST OF THE LAKES.
THURSDAY...MVFR/IFR WITH LIGHT SNOW.
FRIDAY...VFR/MVFR WITH SCATTERED SNOW SHOWERS.

&&

.MARINE...
SOUTHEAST WINDS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH TONIGHT ACROSS THE LOWER
LAKES. THE GUSTY SOUTHEAST FLOW WILL CONTINUE ALONG THE LAKE ERIE
SHORE THROUGH EVENING BEFORE DIMINISHING OVERNIGHT. AT THE EAST END
OF LAKE ONTARIO THE SOUTHEAST WINDS WILL INCREASE THIS EVENING AND
CONTINUE THROUGH EARLY MONDAY MORNING BEFORE DIMINISHING. FLOW WILL
BE OFFSHORE WHICH WILL KEEP THE GREATEST WAVE ACTION ON THE CANADIAN
SHORE. EVEN SO...WIND SPEEDS WILL REACH SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY
CRITERIA WITH SCA CONTINUING IN THESE AREAS.

A BRIEF LULL IN THE WINDS MONDAY MORNING BEFORE SOUTHWEST FLOW
INCREASES BEHIND A COLD FRONT CROSSING THE REGION. THIS WILL SET THE
STAGE FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF MODERATE TO STRONG SOUTHWEST WINDS
MONDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH TUESDAY...BECOMING MORE WESTERLY FOR A TIME
LATER TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY MORNING BEFORE BACKING TO
SOUTHWEST AGAIN WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. THIS WILL BRING HIGH END SMALL
CRAFT ADVISORY CONDITIONS. EXPECT A FEW GALE FORCE GUSTS AT TIMES...
BUT DO NOT EXPECT THIS TO BE WIDESPREAD OR LONG LASTING ENOUGH TO
SUPPORT A GALE WATCHES/WARNINGS AT THIS TIME.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
WILL ISSUE A FLOOD WATCH FOR THE ENTIRE CWA...BASED ON INCREASED QPF
FORECASTS. THE 12Z RUNS GENERALLY INCREASE QPF FORECASTS...WHICH IS
MORE IN LINE WITH 06Z RUNS...AND CONTINUES THE TREND OF A SLOWER
PROGRESSION OF THE FRONT...WHICH ALLOWS SOME OF THE MOISTURE WHICH
WAS INITIALLY THOUGH TO BE TO THE EAST TO MAKE IT INTO WESTERN NEW
YORK. PRECIPITATION HAS ALREADY SPREAD INTO WESTERN NEW YORK...WITH
THE STRONG LOW LEVEL JET OF 60 TO 70 KTS ENTERING WESTERN NEW YORK
LATE AFTERNOON AND THIS EVENING...AND EASTERN SECTIONS OF THE STATE LATE
TONIGHT. THE SLOWER PROGRESSION HAS ALLOWED MOISTURE WHICH IS IN
EASTERN KENTUCKY AND TENNESSEE THIS AFTERNOON TO MOVE ACROSS NEW YORK
STATE. GENERALLY ACCEPT A MULTI-MODEL BLEND FOR THE QPF
FORECAST...WEIGHTING THE 12Z RUNS OF THE NAM/GFS...WHILE CONSIDERING
06Z RUNS...AND THE GEM/UKMET MODELS AS WELL. BASICALLY THIS POINTS
TO AROUND AN INCH...WITH SLIGHTLY HIGHER AMOUNTS IN BOTH FAR WESTERN
NEW YORK...AND IN THE NORTH COUNTRY. MODELS DO SHOW A SHADOW IN THE
FINGER LAKES REGION (PRESUMABLY DOWNSLOPE) BUT WITH THE BOUNDARY
CROSSING THIS REGION LATE EVENING...DO NOT HAVE THE CONFIDENCE TO
LEAVE THIS AREA OUT OF THE WATCH.

THE OTHER PART OF THIS EVENT WILL BE THE WARM TEMPERATURES...WITH
TEMPERATURES EXPECTED TO RISE NEAR 50 OVERNIGHT. THIS COMBINED WITH
THE RAIN WILL CAUSE SIGNIFICANT SNOW MELT WHERE SNOW IS IN PLACE. AT
THIS TIME SNOW PACK IS BELOW NORMAL...BUT THERE STILL IS 2 INCHES
PLUS OF WATER EQUIVALENT SNOW PACK EAST AND INLAND OF LAKE
ERIE...WITT 2 TO 4 INCHES EAST OF LAKE ONTARIO MAINLY ON THE TUG
HILL. A SIGNIFICANT PORTION OF THIS SNOW WILL MELT TONIGHT INTO
MONDAY.

RFC RUNS THIS MORNING...BASED ON SLIGHTLY LOWER QPFS FORECAST
SEVERAL RIVERS (MORE ON THAT LATER) TO APPROACH OR SLIGHTLY EXCEED
FLOOD STAGE. AT THIS POINT...FEEL THIS IS NOW MORE OF A BETTER CASE
SCENARIO...WITH MINOR TO POSSIBLY MODERATE FLOODING WHEREVER AN INCH
PLUS OF RAINFALL IS REALIZED.

IN BUFFALO...ICE LARGELY APPEARS TOO THIN FOR ICE JAMS...OTHERWISE
THIS WOULD BE AN ISSUE AS WELL. IN THE SOUTHERN TIER AND NORTH
COUNTRY...THIS MAY BE AN ISSUE ON CREEKS PRONE TO ICE JAM ISSUES.

IMPACTS...THE MOST WIDESPREAD IMPACT WILL BE PONDING OF WATER ON
ROADWAYS. WHILE NOT TECHNICALLY FLOODING...THIS WILL LIKELY IMPACT
THE MONDAY MORNING COMMUTE. THE GREATER CONCERN IS ISSUES WITH
CREEKS AND RIVERS...WITH TIMING VARIABLE BASED ON RESPONSE TIME. IF
AN INCH OR GREATER OF RAIN FALLS AROUND BUFFALO...SEVERAL CREEKS MAY
EXCEED BANKFULL...INCLUDING THE ELLICOTT CREEK...CAYUGA
CREEK...BUFFALO CREEK. THE CAZENOVIA AND CATTARAUGUS CREEK BASINS
BOTH TAP INTO AREAS WHERE THERE IS MORE SNOW PACK...WITH MINOR TO
PERHAPS MODERATE FLOODING POSSIBLE IF RAINFALL EXCEEDS AN INCH.
ISSUES MAY ARISE AS AS SOON AS TONIGHT ON THE FASTER RESPONDING
CREEKS...LASTING INTO MONDAY. THE BLACK RIVER WILL LIKELY
RISE...WITH FLOODING ALSO POSSIBLE...THOUGH THE RESPONSE TIME TO
THIS IS MUCH SLOWER. STILL...NOTED 2 OF ITS TOP 5 CRESTS CAME IN
JANUARY...AND THE SNOW MELT IN THAT REGION IS POTENTIALLY GREATER
THAN ANYWHERE ELSE. ELSEWHERE...IT IS A BIT MORE MARGINAL....HOWEVER
RAINFALL AMOUNTS MUCH MORE THAN AN INCH WOULD LIKELY CAUSE ISSUES AS
WELL. THERE IS A CONVECTIVE ELEMENT TO THIS EVENT...MAKING IT HARD
TO PIN DOWN LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS. THUS THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR
FLOODING CWA WIDE...THOUGH SOME OF THE MORE SENSITIVE WATERWAYS ARE
DISCUSSED ABOVE.

&&

.EQUIPMENT...
THE KBUF WSR-88D RADAR HAS BEEN EXPERIENCING INTERMITTENT COMMS
PROBLEMS...WITH SPORADIC FAILURES DURING THE PAST 36 HOURS. AT
630 PM THE RADAR WENT DOWN AGAIN...AFTER BEING RESTORED FOR TWO
HOURS. COMMS TECHNICIANS WILL BE NOTIFIED SHORTLY. THESE
INTERMITTENT SERVICE OUTAGES WILL LIKELY CONTINUE INTO MONDAY.
