AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BUFFALO NY
1023 AM EST SUN JAN 29 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
ANOTHER FAST MOVING WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE WILL TRACK ACROSS THE
REGION THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING...BRINGING A WIDESPREAD LIGHT
SNOWFALL...FOLLOWED BY RENEWED LAKE SNOWS EAST OF THE LAKES TONIGHT
AS A WESTERLY FLOW OF BRIEFLY COLDER AIR SPREADS ACROSS THE LOWER
LAKES. AN APPROACHING WARM FRONT WILL THEN BRING ANOTHER ROUND OF
WIDESPREAD LIGHT SNOW TO THE AREA LATE MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT...
FOLLOWED BY A SIGNIFICANT WARMUP FOR TUESDAY AND ESPECIALLY
WEDNESDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
AS OF 1000 AM...RADAR SHOWS A BAND OF SNOW EXTENDING NORTH OF THE
BUFFALO AND ROCHESTER METRO AREAS. THIS BAND HAS BEEN QUITE
IMPRESSIVE AT TIMES THIS MORNING...BRINGING A QUICK TWO INCHES OF
SNOW TO SOME LOCATIONS. THE BAND HAS SINCE WEAKENED A BIT. MODELS
HAVE NOT HANDLED THIS BAND WELL AT ALL...WITH THE LIKELY CAUSE A
COMBINATION OF MID-LEVEL WARM AIR ADVECTION AND LAKE EFFECT
ENHANCEMENT. IR SHOWS LESS MOISTURE IN THE MID-LEVELS
UPSTREAM...WHICH SUGGESTS THAT THE BAND WILL CONTINUE TO WEAKEN.
THIS SAID...WILL MAINTAIN LIKELY POPS BUFFALO NORTHWARD THROUGH
MID-AFTERNOON...WITH AN ADDITIONAL INCH OR TWO POSSIBLE FROM THIS
BAND THROUGH MID-AFTERNOON. MEANWHILE...OFF LAKE ONTARIO...THE
LAKE EFFECT BAND PROMPTING ADVISORIES HAS DISSIPATED...AND THIS
ADVISORY HAS BEEN ALLOWED TO EXPIRE. DESPITE THIS...ADDITIONAL
SNOW IS ON THE WAY...WITH ANOTHER HEADLINE POSSIBLE IN THE NEAR
FUTURE. AN ADDITIONAL CONCERN FOR THIS AREA IS AS MOISTURE FROM
THE LAKE ERIE BAND WORKS ACROSS LAKE ONTARIO...THERE MAY BE
ADDITIONAL ENHANCEMENT THIS AFTERNOON. SEE DISCUSSION BELOW.

MODELS ARE CONSISTENT IN BRINGING A SHORTWAVE ACROSS THE REGION
LATE AFTERNOON. THE HRRR HAS JOINED THE RGEM/NAM12 OF BRINGING A
DECENT SNOW BURST LATE AFTERNOON INTO THIS EVENING. QPFS ARE
GENERALLY BETWEEN .10 AND .25 WITH THIS...WHICH IS MARGINAL FOR
ADVISORIES. HOWEVER...GIVEN THE POTENTIAL SNOWFALL RATES...WILL
CONSIDER AN ADVISORY FOR MARGINAL AMOUNTS...BASED ON IMPACT. THERE
ALSO WILL BE LAKE EFFECT AFTER THIS...WHICH FURTHER COMPLICATES
THE ISSUE. WOULD LIKE TO LOOK AT 12Z RUNS BEFORE MAKING HEADLINE
DECISIONS...BUT WILL LIKELY MAKE HEADLINE DECISIONS BEFORE THE
SCHEDULED 300 PM UPDATE.

IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING THE DEPARTURE OF THE SURFACE WAVE THIS
EVENING...A WESTERLY TO WEST-NORTHWESTERLY FLOW OF COLDER AIR WILL
ONCE AGAIN SET UP ACROSS THE LOWER LAKES...WITH 850 MB TEMPS
DROPPING FROM AROUND -10C/-11C EARLY THIS EVENING TO AROUND -14C
BY MIDNIGHT. THIS WILL TRIGGER A RENEWED ROUND OF LAKE SNOWS EAST
/EAST-SOUTHEAST OF BOTH LAKES. OFF LAKE ERIE...THE RELATIVELY
SHALLOW MOISTURE FIELD AND LOW CAPPING INVERSION HEIGHT OF 5 KFT
SHOULD HELP KEEP THE LAKE SNOWS FAIRLY MINIMAL IN NATURE EAST OF
THE LAKE...WHERE ABOUT 1 TO 3 INCHES OF FRESH ACCUMULATION WILL BE
POSSIBLE THROUGH THE END OF THE NIGHT. OFF LAKE ONTARIO...THINGS
WILL BE A DIFFERENT STORY AS A MUCH DEEPER MOISTURE
FIELD...STRONGER LIFT...AND A CAPPING INVERSION OF AROUND 9-10 KFT
SHOULD ALLOW FOR ANOTHER ROUND OF ADVISORY-CRITERIA SNOWS. THE
MAIN QUESTION AT THIS POINT IS EXACTLY WHERE THESE WILL BE...AS
THE MODELS CONTINUE TO SHOW SOME VARIATION IN THE EXACT LOCATION
OF THE LAKE SNOW BAND...RANGING FROM THE 00Z NAM'S DEPICTION OF A
BAND EAST-SOUTHEAST OF THE LAKE...TO THE 00Z RGEM'S TUG HILL
POSITIONING.

&&

.SHORT TERM /MONDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AT THE START OF THE PERIOD SOME LAKE EFFECT SNOW WILL PERSIST ON
MONDAY EAST OF THE LAKES WITH 850MB TEMPS BOTTOMING OUT AROUND -14C
DURING THE MORNING.

OFF LAKE ERIE...A SURFACE RIDGE WILL BUILD ACROSS THE LAKE DURING
THE MORNING AND DISRUPT/BACK THE LOW LEVEL FLOW AND ALSO DRY OUT THE
LOW LEVELS. THIS SHOULD BRING A QUICK END TO LAKE EFFECT WITH
LINGERING SCATTERED SNOW SHOWERS ACROSS THE WESTERN SOUTHERN TIER
LIFTING NORTH TOWARDS THE BUF SOUTHTOWNS AND FALLING APART WITH ONLY
VERY MINOR DUSTING TO AN INCH ACCUMULATIONS ON THE HILLS IN THE
EARLY MORNING.

OFF LAKE ONTARIO...CONDITIONS WILL STILL BE MORE FAVORABLE THROUGH
THE MORNING HOURS WITH LAKE INDUCED EQUILIBRIUM LEVELS AROUND 10K
FEET...DETERIORATING TO LESS THAN 7K FEET BY AFTERNOON AS THE
SURFACE RIDGE BUILDS ACROSS LAKE ONTARIO. THERE REMAINS SOME SPREAD
WITH BAND PLACEMENT IN THE LATEST 00Z MODEL SUITE WITH THE CANADIAN
GEM HOLDING THE LAKE EFFECT ACROSS NORTHERN OSWEGO COUNTY AND THE
SOUTHERN TUG HILL...WHILE THE NAM DROPS THE BAND INTO SOUTHERN
OSWEGO COUNTY AND EVEN CLIPS N.CAYUGA AND NE WAYNE COUNTY FOR
AWHILE. FOR NOW HAVE PLACED THE BAND ACROSS CENTRAL OSWEGO COUNTY
BUT THIS MAY NEED TO BE TWEAKED AS SHORT TERM MODEL GUIDANCE
CONVERGES ON A COMMON SOLUTION FOR BAND PLACEMENT. SYNOPTIC SCALE
MOISTURE IS DRYING OUT BY MONDAY MORNING...BUT MODERATE INSTABILITY
AND LONG FETCH SUGGEST THE POTENTIAL FOR SEVERAL MORE INCHES IN
PERSISTENT BANDS THROUGH THE FIRST HALF OF MONDAY. AN ADVISORY WILL
LIKELY BE NEEDED FOR THIS INTO MONDAY...BUT AS STATED IN THE NEAR
TERM DISCUSSION WE WILL WAIT UNTIL THE CURRENT ADVISORY EXPIRES
BEFORE RAISING A NEW ONE TO AVOID CONFUSION.

THE LAKE ONTARIO LAKE EFFECT WILL WEAKEN AND END MONDAY AFTERNOON AS
THE SURFACE RIDGE CROSSES THE LAKE AND DISRUPTS THE LOW LEVEL FLOW.

OUR ATTENTION THEN QUICKLY TURNS BACK TO THE SYNOPTIC SCALE. PAST
FEW RUNS OF THE GFS AND SREF HAVE BEEN CONSISTENT IN DEVELOPING AN
AREA OF LIGHT SNOW LATE MONDAY AFTERNOON ACROSS WESTERN NY...THEN
SPREADING EAST ACROSS THE REST OF THE AREA MONDAY NIGHT. THIS AREA
OF SNOW WILL BE SUPPORTED BY A MODERATE TO STRONG WARM ADVECTION
REGIME WITH AMPLE ISENTROPIC UPGLIDE AND MOISTURE CONVERGENCE ON THE
NOSE OF A 60 KNOT 700MB JET SUPPORTING A 3-5 HOUR PERIOD OF SNOW.
THE QUALITY OF DYNAMICS AND MOISTURE COMING TOGETHER SUGGEST THIS
MAY PRODUCE A GENERAL 1-3 INCH SNOW ACROSS MUCH OF THE REGION.

THE SNOW THAT FALLS OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS WILL BE A THING OF THE
PAST BY MIDWEEK AS ANOTHER UNSEASONABLY STRONG WARM-UP ARRIVES
BEGINNING TUESDAY. IN FACT...FOLLOWING THE GENERAL SNOW MONDAY
EVENING TEMPERATURES WILL RISE OVERNIGHT IN THE MODERATE TO STRONG
WARM ADVECTION REGIME...AND WILL BE WELL ABOVE FREEZING ALREADY BY
TUESDAY MORNING FROM THE FINGER LAKES WESTWARD. ONGOING WARM
ADVECTION WILL SUPPORT HIGHS IN THE MID TO UPPER 40S ACROSS MUCH OF
WESTERN AND CENTRAL NY WITH A MAINLY DRY DAY AS THE WARM SECTOR
MIXES NORTHWARD.

THE WARM FRONT WILL HANG UP EAST OF LAKE ONTARIO WITH LIGHT SNOW
LINGERING ACROSS THE NORTH COUNTRY ON TUESDAY. MAY SEE A LITTLE MORE
MINOR ACCUMULATION TUESDAY MORNING...BUT BY AFTERNOON EVEN THERE THE
WARM AIR WILL BEGIN TO WIN OUT WITH TEMPERATURES RISING ABOVE
FREEZING AND ALLOWING RAIN TO MIX IN WITH ANY LEFTOVER LIGHT SNOW.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
TUESDAY NIGHT THE HEART OF THE WARM SECTOR WILL BUILD INTO THE LOWER
LAKES AS A SURFACE LOW MOVES FROM THE UPPER LAKES TO WESTERN QUEBEC
BY WEDNESDAY MORNING. THIS WILL SUPPORT A VERY MILD NIGHT WITH MANY
LOCATIONS NOT DROPPING OUT OF THE 40S...WITH MID 30S EAST OF LAKE
ONTARIO. THE APPROACH OF THE MID LEVEL TROUGH AND BELT OF ENHANCED
LOW/MID LEVEL FLOW WILL SUPPORT INCREASING LARGE SCALE FORCING FOR
ASCENT...WITH RAIN CHANCES GOING UP OVERNIGHT. THE SURFACE COLD
FRONT WILL CROSS THE REGION WEDNESDAY MORNING WITH VERY MILD TEMPS
JUST AHEAD GIVING WAY TO FALLING TEMPS BY AFTERNOON. BEST RAIN
CHANCES WILL BE EARLY...WITH DRYING EXPECTED BY AFTERNOON IF THE
CURRENT MODEL TIMING HOLDS.

COLD ADVECTION BEHIND THE SYSTEM WILL BRING TEMPS DOWN...BUT STILL
ABOVE CLIMO FOR THURSDAY WITH A FEW LIGHT SNOW SHOWERS POSSIBLE EAST
OF THE LAKES.

LATER THURSDAY INTO NEXT WEEKEND FORECAST UNCERTAINTY QUICKLY
INCREASES WITH THE LATEST GFS AND ECMWF RAPIDLY BECOMING
DRAMATICALLY DIFFERENT IN THE SYNOPTIC DETAILS AND EVEN THE LARGE
SCALE PATTERN. THE GFS KEEPS A FLAT TROUGH ON THURSDAY WITH A
GRADUAL AMPLIFICATION NEXT WEEKEND WHICH WOULD TAKE A SOUTHERN
STREAM LOW TOO FAR SOUTH AND EAST TO HAVE MUCH IMPACT ON THE LOWER
LAKES...RESULTING IN A TURN TO COLDER TEMPS NEXT WEEKEND BUT MAINLY
DRY. THE ECMWF ON THE OTHER HAND BRINGS A STRONGER SOUTHERN STREAM
LOW OVER THE LOWER LAKES LATE THURSDAY AND THURSDAY NIGHT WITH RAIN
AND WET SNOW CHANGING TO SNOW. THIS IS FOLLOWED BY A MORE
