AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BUFFALO NY
1243 PM EST WED JAN 5 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
LAKE EFFECT SNOWS WILL DIMINISH TODAY AS A WEAK RIDGE OF HIGH
PRESSURE AND DRIER AIR BRIEFLY BUILDS INTO THE LOWER GREAT LAKES.
ANOTHER AREA OF LOW PRESSURE IS FORECAST TO APPROACH THE REGION
THURSDAY...THEN SPIN IN PLACE THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK WITH
SEVERAL DAYS OF PERSISTENT SNOW EXPECTED THROUGH SATURDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
LAKE EFFECT SNOW CONTINUES TO PERSIST EARLY THIS AFTERNOON DESPITE
DRIER AIR TRYING TO ADVECT IN FROM THE WEST AS A SURFACE RIDGE
APPROACHES.

OFF LAKE ERIE...A BROAD AREA OF LIGHT SNOW SHOWERS CONTINUES ACROSS
MUCH OF THE WESTERN SOUTHERN TIER AND INTO PORTIONS OF SOUTHERN ERIE
AND WYOMING COUNTIES. THIS HAS SLOWLY WEAKENED THROUGH THE COURSE OF
THE MORNING...BUT MAY STILL SEE ANOTHER INCH OR TWO ACROSS PARTS OF
SKI COUNTRY. STILL EXPECT A SLOW WEAKENING TREND THROUGH THE REST OF
THE AFTERNOON AS CONDITIONS BECOME MORE HOSTILE WITH DRIER AIR
MOVING IN FROM THE WEST AND INCREASING SHEAR WITH THE APPROACH OF
THE LOW LEVEL RIDGE AXIS.

OFF LAKE ONTARIO...SEVERAL NARROW BANDS OF MODERATE SNOW CONTINUE
ACROSS NORTHERN MONROE AND WAYNE COUNTIES. THIS AREA IS HANGING ON
DUE IN LARGE PART TO FRICTIONAL AND THERMAL CONVERGENCE
CONCENTRATING ON THE SOUTH SHORE. LATEST MESOSCALE MODEL GUIDANCE
SUGGESTS THIS BAND WILL HANG ON THIS AFTERNOON...AND SHIFT SLOWLY
EAST AS THE BOUNDARY LAYER FLOW BACKS BY 10-20 DEGREES DURING THE
AFTERNOON. MAY SEE SOME LOCAL 2-3 INCH ACCUMS FROM NOW TO 5 PM FROM
THE LAKESHORE OF MONROE COUNTY OVER TO WAYNE COUNTY.

TONIGHT...SOMEWHAT-REJUVENATED LAKE SNOWS OFF LAKE ONTARIO ARE
EXPECTED TO AFFECT OSWEGO COUNTY THROUGH THIS EVENING GIVEN THE
PREVAILING WESTERLY FLOW...BEFORE LIFTING FURTHER NORTH AND
WEAKENING AGAIN OVERNIGHT AS THE LOW LEVEL FLOW BACKS AND BECOMES
INCREASINGLY SHEARED IN ADVANCE OF AN APPROACHING LOW PRESSURE
SYSTEM OVER THE WESTERN AND CENTRAL GREAT LAKES. WHILE THERE WILL BE
THE POTENTIAL FOR AT LEAST ANOTHER ROUND OF ADVISORY-WORTHY
ACCUMULATIONS ASSOCIATED WITH THIS...WILL OPT TO HOLD OFF ON ANY
ADDITIONAL FLAGS FOR NOW GIVEN THE JUST-DROPPED LES WARNING FOR THIS
AREA...DAY SHIFT CAN RE-EVALUATE AND MAKE THE CALL ON THIS.

ELSEWHERE...A MAINLY DRY AND QUIET NIGHT IS EXPECTED...WITH ANY
CHANCE OF SNOW ASSOCIATED WITH THE APPROACHING LOW NOW LOOKING TO
HOLD OFF UNTIL VERY LATE TONIGHT. CHANCES OF ANY LAKE EFFECT OFF
LAKE ERIE LOOK TO BE VERY MINIMAL GIVEN LOW INVERSION HEIGHTS OF
ABOUT 3 KFT...AND VERY SHALLOW MOISTURE...SO WILL KEEP POPS OFF THAT
LAKE BELOW THE CHANCE THRESHOLD.

&&

.SHORT TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
00Z GFS/GEM/NAM ARE ALL IN FAIRLY GOOD AGREEMENT WITH THE UPPER WAVE
CURRENTLY SEEN ON WATER VAPOR IMAGERY PUSHING THROUGH
SASKATCHEWAN...WORKING ACROSS THE REGION THURSDAY AND THURSDAY NIGHT
AS DOUBLE BARRELED UPPER LOW REMAINS OVER SOUTHEASTERN CANADA.
ASSOCIATED SURFACE LOW OVER THE NORTHERN/CENTRAL LAKES WILL BE
FORCED ACROSS SOUTHERN ONTARIO THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT. PROFILES
SHOWING DEEP LAYERED MOISTURE THROUGH AT LEAST 500 MB WITH
SUFFICIENT ISENTROPIC UPGLIDE FOR A WIDESPREAD GENERAL SNOWFALL.
MOST AREAS PROBABLY IN THE 1-3 INCH RANGE...BUT WILL HAVE TO WATCH
AREAS DOWNWIND OF LAKE ERIE INCLUDING THE BUFFALO METRO AREA AS A
LAKE CONTRIBUTION HERE COULD BECOME PROBLEMATIC WITH THE POTENTIAL
FOR BETTER ACCUMULATIONS. SUBSEQUENT FORECAST SHIFTS MAY NEED TO
CONSIDER HEADLINES...BUT FOR NOW WILL HIGHLIGHT THIS POTENTIAL IN
THE MORNING RENDITION OF THE HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK.

CYCLONIC FLOW WILL CONTINUE FRIDAY AND FRIDAY NIGHT AS A SECONDARY
SHORTWAVE CROSSES THE REGION. THIS WILL ALLOW THE SNOW SHOWER
ACTIVITY TO CONTINUE AS DEEP MOISTURE REMAINS. ADDITIONAL
ACCUMULATIONS WILL BE LIKELY. FOCUS LATER FRIDAY AND FRIDAY NIGHT
WILL TURN TO NORTHWEST FLOW LAKE SNOW CONCERNS AS LOW PRESSURE
ORGANIZED OFF THE EAST COAST.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
NEAR TO BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES WILL CONTINUE ACROSS THE FORECAST
AREA DURING THIS PERIOD DESPITE THE OVERALL PATTERN GOING THROUGH
SOME DEAMPLIFICATION. THE MEDIUM RANGE GEFS AND ECMWF ARE AT ODDS AS
TO THE TIMING AND AMPLITUDE OF THE WAVES WITHIN THE EVOLVING PATTERN
SO CONFIDENCE WITHIN THIS PERIOD WILL BE MARGINAL/LOW.

A SHEARED/ELONGATED H5 VORTEX WILL BE FOUND OVER THE GREAT LAKES AND
MID ATLANTIC STATES ON SATURDAY WITH H85 TEMPS OF -12C HELPING TO
GENERATE MORE SCATTERED SNOW SHOWERS. MAX TEMPS WILL GENERALLY
REMAIN IN THE 20S...WHICH WILL BE A FEW DEGREES BELOW SEASONAL
NORMALS.

ON SUNDAY...A WEST TO EAST ORIENTED UPPER LEVEL TROUGH IS FORECAST
TO BE FOUND OVER THE GREAT LAKES AND NEW ENGLAND. THE ECMWF AND GEFS
VARY ON COLD IT WILL BE AT H85 AT THIS TIME...WITH THE ACCEPTED
ECMWF KEEPING TEMPS AT CLOUD LEVEL IN THE VCNTY OF -12/-14C. THIS
WILL KEEP IT SEASONABLY COLD ON SUNDAY...BUT WITH INCREASED MID
LEVEL DRYING...THE WIDESPREAD SNOW SHOWERS SHOULD TAPER OFF TO
FLURRIES WITH SOME NUISANCE LAKE SNOWS SOUTHEAST OF LK ONTARIO.

FOR MONDAY AND TUESDAY...THE MAIN MEDIUM RANGE GUIDANCE PACKAGES
DIVERGE COMPLETELY AS THE GFS DEPICTS A PROGRESSIVE RIDGE MOVING
THROUGH THE REGION WHILE THE MORE TRUSTED ECMWF FAVORS THE IDEA OF
ANOTHER CLOSED H5 LOW OVER THE ERN LAKES. WILL LEAN TOWARDS THE
ECMWF AND KEEP SKIES RELATIVELY CLOUDY WITH A LOW POP FOR MORE SNOW
SHOWERS AND FLURRIES.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
LAKE EFFECT SNOW PERSISTS EAST OF LAKE ERIE AND SOUTHEAST OF LAKE
ONTARIO...BUT WILL BY IN LARGE AVOID THE TAF SITES THROUGH TONIGHT.
OFF LAKE ERIE A WEAKENING AREA OF SNOW SHOWERS ACROSS THE WESTERN
SOUTHERN TIER WILL PRODUCE AREAS OF IFR THROUGH THE REST OF THE
AFTERNOON...WITH MVFR AT KJHW. EVENTUALLY EXPECT THIS TO PUSH NORTH
OF KJHW AND FALL APART WITH CIGS GRADUALLY IMPROVING TO VFR LATER
THIS EVENING. UP AT KBUF-KIAG EXPECT VFR TO PREVAIL THROUGH TONIGHT
WITH ANY LAKE EFFECT REMAINING SOUTH. WHATEVER REMAINS OF THE LAKE
EFFECT PLUME WILL SHIFT NORTH THURSDAY MORNING...AND MAY BRING A FEW
HOURS OF MVFR CIGS AND POSSIBLY SNOW SHOWERS TO KBUF-KIAG.

OFF LAKE ONTARIO THE LAKE SNOW IS BRINGING SOME IFR TO KROC...BUT
THIS WILL END WITHIN THE HOUR AS THE SNOW PUSHES EAST OF THE
TERMINAL. AFTER THAT...EXPECT VFR TO PREVAIL AT KROC. UP AT KART
SKIES ARE CLEAR WITH NO OFF-LAKE FETCH. EXPECT THIS TO CONTINUE INTO
THE EVENING BEFORE MID/HIGH CLOUDS GRADUALLY INCREASE. SOME MVFR
LAKE CLOUDS MAY MOVE NORTH TOWARD KART LATER THURSDAY MORNING.

.OUTLOOK...
THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY...AREAS OF IFR IN SNOW SHOWERS AND
LAKE ENHANCED SNOW.
SUNDAY...AREAS OF MVFR IN SCATTERED SNOW SHOWERS.
MONDAY...MAINLY VFR.

&&

.MARINE...
HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE OHIO VALLEY WILL BRIEFLY RIDGE NORTHEASTWARD
INTO THE LOWER LAKES REGION TODAY...ALLOWING ADVISORY CRITERIA WINDS
AND WAVES TO SUBSIDE THIS MORNING ON LAKE ERIE...AND THIS AFTERNOON
ON LAKE ONTARIO. MODEST WESTERLIES WILL THEN BECOME SOUTHERLY AND
SOUTHEASTERLY TONIGHT AND THURSDAY AS LOW PRESSURE DEVELOPS INTO THE
CENTRAL GREAT LAKES...WITH WINDS AND WAVES EXPECTED TO REMAIN BELOW
ADVISORY CRITERIA.

&&

.BUF WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
NY...NONE.
MARINE...SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY UNTIL 4 PM EST THIS AFTERNOON FOR
         LOZ043>045.
