AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BUFFALO NY
1258 PM EST TUE JAN 3 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
MUCH COLDER AIR FOLLOWING AN ARCTIC FRONT WILL BE ACCOMPANIED BY
WIDESPREAD BUT WEAKENING LAKE EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS TODAY. MOST OF
THE SNOW WILL TAPER OFF BY THIS EVENING AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS
INTO THE REGION. MOISTURE ASSOCIATED WITH AN APPROACHING WARM
FRONT WILL BRING A CHANCE FOR SOME LIGHT SNOW ON WEDNESDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
AT 18Z LATEST SATELLITE DISPLAYS MULTI BANDS OFF THE EASTERN GREAT
LAKES WITH A LAKE HURON CONNECTION ENHANCING THE LAKE ERIE SNOW
BAND...THOUGH HEAVIEST SNOWS HAS PUSHED A LITTLE SOUTHWARD AND STILL
REMAINS JUST SOUTH OF OUR CWA AREA. OFF LAKE ONTARIO...IN A REGION
WITH GREATER LOW LEVEL LIFT AN ENHANCED BAND OF SNOW LIES SOUTH AND
SOUTHEAST OF THE LAKE...MAINLY JUST EAST OF ROCHESTER AND TO OSWEGO
THIS EARLY AFTERNOON.

WILL MAINTAIN THE LAKE EFFECT SNOW WARNINGS FOR CHAUTAUQUA AND
CATTARAUGUS OFF LAKE ERIE AS WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO BACK LIFTING
HEAVIER LAKE SNOWS NORTHWARD...WHILE PRESENTLY LAKE SNOWS DROPPING
SOUTHWARD OVER THE REGION WILL LIKELY BE ENHANCED BY OROGRAPHIC
LIFTING.

WILL ALSO MAINTAIN LAKE EFFECT SNOW WARNINGS FOR WAYNE...NORTHERN
CAYUGA AND OSWEGO COUNTIES WITH BANDS OF LAKE EFFECT SNOW EXPECTED
TO PERSIST THROUGH THE AFTERNOON HOURS. LATEST IR HAS THE COLDEST
CLOUD TOPS WARMING SLIGHTLY WHICH LIKELY IS A RESULT OF A FALLING
LAKE EQL LEVEL...WITH LAKE SNOWS THIS AFTERNOON STARTING TO TAPER
OFF.

THOUGH WINDS WILL DIMINISH...THEY STILL WILL GUST AROUND 30 MPH
THROUGH THE AFTERNOON NEAR BOTH LAKE SHORES. THIS WILL CREATE SOME
AREAS OF BLOWING SNOW AS WITH THE ARCTIC AIRMASS THE SNOW THAT DOES
FALL IS QUITE FLUFFY IN NATURE.

THE SURFACE AND UPPER AIR PATTERN BECOME MORE RIDGED LATER TODAY AND
TONIGHT. ALTHOUGH THE SURFACE AND 850MB RIDGE WILL SLIDE EAST OF THE
AREA OVERNIGHT...THE BOUNDARY LAYER TEMPS WILL REMAIN COLD ENOUGH
FOR A SHIFT IN SHALLOW LAKE EFFECT FARTHER TO THE NORTH. THIS MAY
BRING SOME WEAK AND DISORGANIZED LAKE SHOW TO WESTERN NIAGARA AND
ERIE COUNTIES...CLOSE TO AND DOWNWIND OF THE LAKE ERIE SHORE.

WHILE FLURRIES MAY REMAIN DOWNWIND OF LAKE ERIE TONIGHT...A WEAK
BAND OF LAKE SNOWS MAY CONTINUE SOUTHEAST OF LAKE ONTARIO THROUGH
THE EVENING HOURS BEFORE DIMINISHING TO FLURRIES.

TEMPS TODAY WILL HOVER IN THE LOWER TO MIDDLE TEENS...MID TO UPR
SINGLE NUMBERS EAST OF LAKE ONTARIO. LOWS TONIGHT WILL RANGE FROM -5
TO NEAR 10 FOR THE EASTERN LAKE ONTARIO REGION...WITH +5 TO MID
TEENS ELSEWHERE.

&&

.SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...
INCOMING SHORTWAVE TROUGH WILL CROSS THE AREA WEDNESDAY. MOISTURE
PROFILES ARE NOT OVERLY IMPRESSIVE WITH THIS SYSTEM. CROSS SECTIONAL
MOISTURE FIELDS SUGGESTING THE MIDDAY AND UPPER LEVEL MOISTURE WILL
BE ON THE WAY OUT OF THE REGION JUST AS THE LOW LEVELS SATURATE
SUFFICIENTLY TO GENERATE SNOW. THEREFORE WITH LESS THAN DESIRABLE
DENDRITIC GROWTH BEING REALIZED WE WILL LIKELY SEE VERY LITTLE IN
THE WAY OF ACCUMULATING SNOW WITH THIS SYSTEM. 925-850 MB WIND
FIELDS SUGGESTING SOME POTENTIAL FOR LAKE ENHANCEMENT OFF BOTH LAKES
AS THE FLOW TURNS WEST SOUTHWEST...BUT WARMING ALOFT ALONG WITH A
FAIR AMOUNT OF SHEAR SHOULD LIMIT THIS POTENTIAL AS WELL.

ONCE THE TROUGH EXITS WEDNESDAY NIGHT...A NORTHWEST FLOW OF COLDER
AIR WILL SET UP IN ITS WAKE. 850 MB TEMPERATURES DROPPING BACK DOWN
TO AROUND -9C LEADING TO THE MARGINAL POTENTIAL FOR LAKE SNOWS IN
FAVORED NORTHWEST FLOW AREAS. INVERSION HEIGHTS AROUND 3K FEET AND
MARGINAL DELTA T VALUES WILL LIMIT ACCUMULATION POTENTIAL. ANY LAKE
ACTIVITY WHICH DOES DEVELOP SHOULD TAPER OFF THURSDAY NIGHT AS
TEMPERATURES ALOFT BEGIN TO WARM...ENDING LAKE INSTABILITY.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AT THE START OF THE LONG TERM PERIOD ANOTHER WARM UP IS ON THE WAY
AS PACIFIC AIR FLOODS EAST ACROSS THE REGION. A WARM FRONT WILL LIFT
NORTHEAST ACROSS THE REGION FRIDAY WITH 850MB TEMPS SURGING TO +4C
OR BETTER IN WESTERN NY BY THE END OF THE DAY. THE WARMTH WILL LAST
INTO SATURDAY BEFORE A BROAD/FLAT TROUGH DIGS BACK INTO THE GREAT
LAKES REGION AND ALLOWS TEMPERATURES TO COOL DOWN AGAIN BACK CLOSE
TO AVERAGE SUNDAY THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK.

WHILE THERE WILL BE A CHANCE OF LIGHT PRECIP JUST ABOUT EVERY DAY IN
THE EXTENDED WITH A MULTITUDE OF WEAK SYSTEMS PASSING THROUGH THE
AREA...NOTHING SIGNIFICANT IS EXPECTED.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
AT 18Z VFR FLIGHT CONDITIONS WERE FOUND ACROSS THE NORTH
COUNTRY...AND EXPECTED TO REMAIN THROUGH THE TAF PERIOD.

FOR THE WESTERN 4 TAF SITES LAKE EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS WILL BRING SOME
REDUCED VISIBILITIES GENERALLY MVFR...THOUGH IFR IS EXPECTED ACROSS
THE SOUTHERN TIER. AT ANY SITE A BRIEF REDUCTION TO IFR OR LOWER IS
POSSIBLE THIS AFTERNOON AS A THIN BAND OF SNOW PASSES THE AIRFIELD.
THESE CONDITIONS ARE NOT EXPECTED TO BE WIDESPREAD NOR LAST LONG AND
WILL NOT INCLUDE SUCH SCENARIO IN THE TAF PACKAGE.

FOR ALL SITES WINDS WILL BACK TO SOUTHWESTERLY AND EVEN SOUTHERLY
OVERNIGHT WITH WIND SPEEDS DIMINISHING. EXPECT SOME CLEARING OVER
NIGHT.

CLOUDS WILL AGAIN THICKEN IN THE MID LEVELS FROM WEST TO EAST AS A
QUICK MOVING UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE NEARS THE REGION TOMORROW.
MOISTURE IS LIMITED WITH THIS SYSTEM...AND ANY SNOW WILL LIKELY HOLD
OFF TO 18Z OR LATER TOMORROW.

WINDS JUST AHEAD OF THIS SYSTEM WILL INCREASE IN SPEED...WITH LATE
MORNING AND AFTERNOON GUSTS 15 TO 30 KNOTS ACROSS THE NIAGARA
PENINSULA...WHILE SLIGHTLY LESS ACROSS KROC AND KJHW TERMINALS.
GUSTY WINDS WILL BEGIN TOWARDS THE AFTERNOON ACROSS THE EASTERN LAKE
ONTARIO REGION.

OUTLOOK...
WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND THURSDAY...AREAS OF MVFR WITH A CHANCE OF SNOW
SHOWERS. AREAS OF IFR IN SNOW SHOWERS LIKELY EAST OF LAKE ONTARIO.
FRIDAY AND SATURDAY...MAINLY VFR.
SATURDAY NIGHT AND SUNDAY...MVFR IN CHANCE SNOW SHOWERS.

&&

.MARINE...
SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES WILL BE IN PLACE ACROSS THE NEAR SHORE
WATERS OF BOTH LAKES THROUGH TODAY AS A BRISK NORTHWESTERLY FLOW
CONTINUES.

WINDS AND WAVES WILL THEN SUBSIDE BELOW ADVISORY CRITERIA TONIGHT
AND WEDNESDAY AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS ACROSS THE LOWER GREAT LAKES.

&&

.BUF WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
NY...LAKE EFFECT SNOW WARNING UNTIL 6 PM EST THIS EVENING FOR
     NYZ004>006-019-020.
MARINE...SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY UNTIL 3 PM EST THIS AFTERNOON FOR LEZ040-
