AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BUFFALO NY
1102 PM EST SAT DEC 29 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
SCATTERED SNOW SHOWERS WILL BE FOUND AREA WIDE OVERNIGHT WITH
WEST-NORTHWEST WINDS BRINGING LAKE EFFECT SNOW SOUTH AND SOUTHEAST OF
THE LAKES. HIGH PRESSURE SLIDING ACROSS THE REGION SUNDAY NIGHT WILL
BRING A BRIEF PERIOD OF QUIETER WEATHER BEFORE ANOTHER SERIES OF
SYSTEMS BRINGS A CHANCE OF SNOW BY MONDAY NIGHT WITH A SIGNIFICANT
COOL DOWN BY THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH SUNDAY/...
ALL WINTER WEATHER ADVISORIES HAVE BEEN CANCELED THIS EVENING.

THE STORM SYSTEM WHICH BROUGHT THE WIDESPREAD SNOW THAT WE SAW
EARLIER TODAY IS CENTERED JUST OFF CAPE COD WITH A TIGHT PRESSURE
GRADIENT ON THE BACK SIDE ACROSS SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND INTO NEW YORK
STATE. THIS HAS BROUGHT NORTH TO NORTHWESTERLY WINDS ACROSS THE
GREAT LAKES WHERE LOCAL RADARS ARE SHOWING LAKE EFFECT SNOW ONGOING
TO THE SOUTH AND EAST OF THE LAKES.

THE COMBINATION OF THE WEAKLY SHEARED FLOW AND SFC-850 DELTA-T
VALUES IN THE 15-17 DEGREE RANGE HAVE BROUGHT LOOSELY ORGANIZED LAKE
EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS ACROSS USUAL UPSLOPE AREAS SOUTH AND SOUTHEAST
OF THE LAKES. THE MAIN LIMITING FACTORS WILL BE THE REASONABLY SHORT
FETCH BUT AN UPSTREAM CONNECTION TO LAKE HURON IS OBSERVED ON
CANADIAN RADAR WHICH IS ENHANCING THE ACTIVITY OVER LAKE ERIE TO THE
SOUTHWEST OF CHAUTAUQUA COUNTY. THE LOCAL WRF MODELS ALSO SHOWS THIS
AND THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT KEEPS THIS TO THE SOUTH OVER ERIE COUNTY
PENNSYLVANIA. A SOLID 2-3 INCHES WILL BE POSSIBLE ACROSS THE
CHAUTAUQUA RIDGE AND EVEN SOUTH OF LAKE ONTARIO OVERNIGHT WITH MORE
MODEST ACCUMULATIONS UP TO AN INCH OR SO WHERE LAKE SNOWS REACH
FURTHER INLAND ACROSS THE NIAGARA FRONTIER AND TOWARDS THE FINGER
LAKES. THESE AMOUNTS WILL HOLD BELOW LAKE EFFECT SNOW ADVISORY
CRITERIA.  TEMPERATURES WILL DIP INTO THE UPPER TEENS TO LOWER 20S
AS A SLIGHTLY COOLER AIRMASS ADVECTS INTO THE REGION OVERNIGHT.

FOR SUNDAY...LAKE EFFECT SHOWERS WILL GRADUALLY TAPER OFF THROUGH
THE DAY AS SURFACE RIDGING NOSES EASTWARD ACROSS THE LOWER GREAT
LAKES...THOUGH ANOTHER INCH OR TWO WILL BE POSSIBLE IN THE SNOWBELTS
SOUTHEAST OF THE LAKES IN THE MORNING WITH NEGLIGIBLE AMOUNTS OF A
HALF INCH OR LESS POSSIBLE ELSEWHERE. EXPECT CLOUDS TO LINGER
THROUGH THE DAY HOWEVER AS LOW LEVEL FLOW WILL REMAIN ONSHORE AND
TEMPERATURES WILL BE SEASONABLY CHILLY WITH HIGHS IN THE 20S.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...
SUNDAY NIGHT...HIGH PRESSURE WILL REMAIN IN PLACE OVER THE MIDDLE
ATLANTIC STATES WHILE LOW PRESSURE LIFTS NORTH TOWARD JAMES BAY. THE
WEST TO SOUTHWEST FLOW BETWEEN THESE TWO SYSTEMS WILL ADVECT WARMER
AIR ACROSS THE OHIO VALLEY AND LOWER LAKES. 850 MB TEMPERATURES
WILL CLIMB TO AROUND -4C ACROSS WESTERN NEW YORK...TO ABOUT -8C
ACROSS THE NORTH COUNTRY. AS A RESULT...ANY LINGERING LAKE EFFECT
SNOW SHOWERS SOUTHEAST OF THE LAKES AT THE START OF THE NIGHT WILL
STEADILY LIFT NORTH WHILE CONTINUING TO WEAKEN OVER TIME. OFF LAKE
ERIE...EXPECT MOST OF THE LINGERING SNOW OR FLURRIES TO END AROUND
MIDNIGHT...BUT EAST OF LAKE ONTARIO SNOW SHOWERS WILL LINGER THROUGH
THE NIGHT DUE TO THE COLDER AIR ALOFT.

ON MONDAY...THE SURFACE LOW WILL SLIDE EAST INTO SOUTHERN QUEBEC
...WHILE ITS ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT APPROACHES LAKE ONTARIO LATE IN
THE DAY. SCATTERED LAKE EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS MAY LINGER EAST OF LAKE
ONTARIO GIVEN CONTINUED MARGINALLY COLD TEMPS ALOFT...WHILE THE REST
OF THE AREA SHOULD REMAIN DRY INTO THE EARLY TO MID AFTERNOON HOURS.
AFTER THAT...BOTH SYNOPTIC-SCALE MOISTURE AND LARGE-SCALE LIFT
WILL BE ON THE INCREASE BOTH IN ADVANCE OF THE COLD FRONT AND IN
ASSOCIATION WITH MID AND UPPER LEVEL JET STREAKS...WHICH COULD LEAD
TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF MORE GENERAL LIGHT SNOW SHOWERS BY THE END OF
THE DAY.

AS THE SURFACE LOW SLIDES EAST INTO THE CANADIAN MARITIMES MONDAY
NIGHT...ITS TRAILING COLD FRONT WILL DROP SOUTH ACROSS NEW YORK
STATE. THIS WILL LEAD TO MORE SYNOPTIC-SCALE SNOW SHOWERS
AREAWIDE...WHICH MAY BE BRIEFLY ENHANCED AT TIMES DOWNWIND OF THE
LAKES. HOWEVER...A LACK SUFFICIENTLY DEEP MOISTURE AND THE PRESENCE
OF A FAIR AMOUNT OF SPEED SHEAR WILL LIKELY LIMIT THE RESPONSE FROM
THE LAKES.

A WEST TO NORTHWEST FLOW OF COLDER AIR WILL DEEPEN ACROSS THE AREA
TUESDAY. THIS WILL RESULT IN SCATTERED LAKE EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS
WHICH WILL TEND TO DIMINISH DURING THE AFTERNOON AS A WEAK RIDGE
CRESTS OVER LAKE ONTARIO.

ANOTHER LOW AND ITS ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT ARE FORECAST TO DROP
SOUTHEAST TOWARD LAKE ONTARIO TUESDAY NIGHT. AS THE BOUNDARY LAYER
WINDS SHIFT TO THE WEST SOUTHWEST AHEAD OF THE FRONT...ANY ONGOING
LAKE EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS WILL LIFT NORTH TOWARD KBUF AND KART.

IN TERMS OF TEMPERATURES...EXPECT READINGS TO MODERATE INTO THE
UPPER 20S/LOWER-MID 30S ON MONDAY. ON TUESDAY BEHIND THE COLD
FRONT...TEMPERATURES WILL RANGE THROUGH THE 20S...BUT AREAS EAST OF
LAKE ONTARIO TEMPERATURES MAY STRUGGLE TO GET OUT OF THE TEENS.
IT WILL BE QUITE COLD TUESDAY NIGHT WITH TEMPERATURES EXPECTED TO
DIP INTO THE LOW SINGLE DIGITS EAST OF LAKE ONTARIO...WHILE THE LOWER
TEENS PREVAIL ACROSS THE REST OF THE CWA.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
MID WINTER-LIKE CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL ACROSS THE AREA THROUGH MOST OF
THIS PERIOD AS A SERIES OF POTENT SHORT WAVES REINFORCE THE UPPER
LEVEL TROUGH THAT WILL BE IN PLACE OVER EASTERN CANADA AND THE
NORTHEAST U.S.

AT THE SURFACE...AN ARCTIC FRONT WILL DROP SOUTH ACROSS THE AREA ON
WEDNESDAY. A BURST OF SNOW...WITH SOME LAKE ENHANCEMENT...WILL
LIKELY ACCOMPANY THE FRONTAL PASSAGE.  A NORTHERLY FLOW OF VERY COLD
AIR WILL SET UP BEHIND THE FRONT WEDNESDAY NIGHT. THERE IS SOME
QUESTION AS TO HOW FAVORABLE THE LAKE EFFECT SNOW PARAMETERS WILL
BE. THEREFORE...WILL MAINTAIN LOW CHANCE POPS FOR SNOW SHOWERS.

ON THURSDAY...THE GFS SHOWS HIGH PRESSURE CRESTING RIGHT OVER NEW
YORK STATE...WHILE THE ECMWF PUSHES A WEAK WAVE ACROSS THE LOWER
LAKES. FOR NOW...WILL FOLLOW THE MORE CONSISTENT GFS SOLUTION WHICH
FAVORS THE PLACEMENT OF THE RIDGE. BASED ON THIS...WILL INDICATE A
GENERAL TREND OF DECREASING POPS ON THURSDAY DUE TO SUBSIDENCE AND
DRIER AIR IN THE VICINITY OF THE HIGH.

THE MODELS SHOW SOME INCREASE IN LOW LEVEL MOISTURE ON FRIDAY AS A
SOUTHWEST FLOW SETS UP ACROSS THE LOWER LAKES. THE GFS AND ECMWF
SHOW SOME DISCREPANCIES REGARDING THE PLACEMENT OF A SECOND CLIPPER
THAT MAY DROP SOUTH ACROSS SOUTHERN ONTARIO. THEREFORE...WILL JUST
MAINTAIN LOW CHANCE POPS FOR SNOW SHOWERS EAST AND NORTHEAST OF BOTH
LAKES.

THE MAIN WEATHER STORY DURING THIS PERIOD WILL BE THE TRANSITION TO
AN ARCTIC AIRMASS ACROSS THE ENTIRE CWA. FOLLOWING THE PASSAGE OF
THE ARCTIC FRONT ON WEDNESDAY...HIGH TEMPERATURES ON THURSDAY AND
FRIDAY WILL RANGE THROUGH TEENS...WITH JUST SINGLE DIGITS EXPECTED
EAST OF LAKE ONTARIO. LOW TEMPERATURES WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND THURSDAY
NIGHT ARE FORECAST TO RANGE FROM 5 TO 10 BELOW ZERO EAST OF LAKE
ONTARIO TO PLUS SINGLE DIGITS ELSEWHERE. A SLOW MODERATING TREND IS
FORECAST TO GET UNDERWAY FRIDAY NIGHT AND CONTINUE INTO SATURDAY AS
A SOUTHWEST FLOW SETS UP AHEAD OF THE NEXT CLIPPER AND ITS
ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT.

&&

.AVIATION /04Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
WIDESPREAD STEADY SNOW HAS TAPERED OFF ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA THIS
EVENING AS THE STORM WHICH BROUGHT IT LIFTS NORTH OFF THE NEW
ENGLAND COAST. LAKE EFFECT SNOWS HAVE NOW DEVELOPED ALONG WITH
LINGERING MVFR/IFR CIGS IN WRAP AROUND MOISTURE AT LOW LEVELS.
EXPECT GRADUAL IMPROVEMENT TO MVFR BY LATE TONIGHT FOR ALL TAFS.
THE MOST ORGANIZED LAKE SNOW WILL BE FOUND ACROSS CHAUTAUQUA AND
MONROE COUNTIES WHERE KROC IS SEEING THE LOWEST VIS AT 04Z.

MVFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED ACROSS THE AREA SUNDAY MORNING INTO EARLY
AFTERNOON WITH THE EXCEPTION OF KJHW WHICH SHOULD STAY MVFR THROUGH
TOMORROW COURTESY OF UPSLOPE FLOW AND LAKE EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS. HIGH
PRESSURE BUILDING INTO WNY BY SUNDAY AFTERNOON WILL IMPROVE
CONDITIONS TO VFR.

OUTLOOK...
SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY...VFR/MVFR WITH CHANCE OF A FEW SNOW
SHOWERS.
WEDNESDAY...AREAS OF MVFR/IFR WITH A CHANCE OF SNOW SHOWERS
AND LAKE EFFECT SNOW EAST OF THE LAKES.

&&

.MARINE...
LOW PRESSURE OFF THE NEW ENGLAND COAST HAS BROUGHT A NORTHWEST FLOW
ACROSS THE LOWER GREAT LAKES THIS EVENING WHICH HAS PROMOTED SMALL
CRAFT ADVISORY CONDITIONS AND LAKE EFFECT SNOW. WINDS AND WAVES HAVE
INCREASED THIS EVENING AS A TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT EXISTS BETWEEN
THE LOW OFF THE NEW ENGLAND COAST AND HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING EAST
FROM THE CENTER PART OF THE COUNTY. THIS PATTERN WILL CONTINUE INTO
EARLY NEXT WEEK AS WINDS BACK TO WESTERLY AND CONTINUE SMALL CRAFT
CONDITIONS.
ADVISORIES ISSUED AS OUTLINED BELOW.
