AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BUFFALO NY
1138 PM EST MON FEB 11 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE WILL MOVE FROM SOUTHERN ONTARIO INTO QUEBEC
TONIGHT WHILE A COLD FRONT CONTINUES EASTWARD ACROSS THE STATE AND
INTO NEW ENGLAND.  BREEZY TO WINDY CONDITIONS...ALONG WITH SOME LAKE
EFFECT SNOW EAST OF THE LAKES WILL DEVELOP THIS EVENING AND CONTINUE
INTO TUESDAY.  HIGH PRESSURE WILL BRING DRY WEATHER FOR WEDNESDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TUESDAY/...
RADAR IMAGERY LATE THIS EVENING SHOWING AN AREA OF MODERATE SNOW
RAPIDLY BLOSSOMING FROM THE EAST END OF LAKE ERIE ACROSS THE BUF
METRO AREA TO ROCHESTER. WHILE THIS IS PROBABLY LAKE ENHANCED...WE
DONT BELIEVE IT IS PURE LAKE EFFECT. THE AIRMASS IS NOT COLD ENOUGH
TO SUPPORT A BAND SUCH AS THIS. INSTEAD...THIS APPEARS TO BE DRIVEN
BY FRICTIONAL CONVERGENCE AND THE PASSAGE OF A MID LEVEL SHORTWAVE
AND JETLET WHICH SHOWS UP IN IR SATELLITE IMAGERY AS AN AREA OF
ENHANCED CLOUD TOPS. WHEN THIS FEATURE CROSSED SOUTHERN LAKE HURON
EARLIER THIS EVENING THERE WAS A SIMILAR BRIEF PERIOD OF ENHANCED
SNOW.

EXPECT THIS TO BE RELATIVELY SHORT LIVED...ONLY LASTING FOR ANOTHER
1-3 HOURS...BUT WILL LIKELY PUT DOWN A QUICK 1-2 INCHES OF WET SNOW
FROM BUFFALO TO THE WESTERN SUBURBS OF ROCHESTER. THE AREA OF
ENHANCEMENT MAY TEND TO SINK A LITTLE SOUTH AS THE WIND FIELD SLOWLY
VEERS.

OTHERWISE UPSLOPE AND LAKE ENHANCED SNOW IS ALSO DEVELOPING ON
SCHEDULE ACROSS THE WESTERN SOUTHERN TIER...AND THIS AREA MAY SEE AN
INCH OR SO OF ACCUMULATION OVERNIGHT. UPSLOPE SNOW IS JUST STARTING
TO FORM EAST OF LAKE ONTARIO...AND EXPECT A SIMILAR JUMP IN
INTENSITY ONCE THE SHORTWAVE REACHES THERE IN A FEW MORE HOURS. THIS
WILL PRODUCE 1 TO 2 INCHES OF ACCUMULATION OVERNIGHT EAST OF LAKE
ONTARIO...WITH 2-4 INCHES ACROSS THE HIGHER TERRAIN OF THE TUG HILL
AND POSSIBLY THE WESTERN FOOTHILLS OF THE ADIRONDACKS.

WIND...EXPECT A SLOW INCREASE IN WIND GUSTS THIS EVENING...WITH
TYPICALLY FAVORED EXPOSED AREAS/SHORELINE LOCATIONS FEELING THE
HIGHEST GUSTS.  UPSTREAM OBSERVATIONS SHOW WIND GUSTS IN THE 45-50
RANGE...AND WILL KEEP THIS UNCHANGED IN THE FORECAST FOR
TONIGHT...MAINLY FINGER LAKES WEST COINCIDING WITH MIXING WITH
HIGHER WINDS ALOFT. SOME OF THESE HIGHER WIND SPEEDS WERE ALREADY
CREEPING INTO THE NIAGARA FRONTIER AT 3PM.

ON TUESDAY...ASIDE FROM CONTINUING LAKE EFFECT SNOW MAINLY EAST OF
LAKE ONTARIO AND TO A LESSER EXTENT EAST OF LAKE ERIE...EXPECT ANY
LINGERING FLURRY ACTIVITY TO SLOWLY TAPER OFF.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...
WEAK WARM ADVECTION AND CONTINUED MID LEVEL DRYING WILL WEAKEN THE
ONGOING LAKE EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS TUESDAY NIGHT...PARTICUALRLY EAST
OF LK ERIE WHERE THE DRYING WILL BE MOST PRONOUNCED. FRESH SNOW
ACCUMULATIONS SHOULD BE UNDER AN INCH EAST OF ERIE AND ONE TO TWO
INCHES ACROSS SRN PORTIONS OF THE TUG. OTHERWISE...WEAK HIGH
PRESSURE MOVING BY TO OUR SOUTH WILL PROVIDE UNEVENTFUL WEATHER
ACROSS OUR REGION WITH TEMPERATURES SETTLING TO BETWEEN 20 AND 25.

ON WEDNESDAY...OUR REGION WILL BE FOUND BETWEEN A DIGGING SHORTWAVE
OVER THE UPPER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY AND AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE THAT
WILL LIFT ACROSS THE CAROLINAS. GENERAL SUBSIDENCE BETWEEN THESE
FEATURES WILL PRODUCE A PARTLY SUNNY DAY ACROSS OUR REGION...WITH
ANY REMAINING NUISANCE LAKE SNOW SHOWERS COMING TO AN END.
TEMPERATURES WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON SHOULD TOP OUT IN THE UPPER 30S TO
NEAR 40. FAIR WEATHER WILL CONTINUE THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT AS A
SHORT WAVE RIDGE WILL BUILD OVER THE LOWER GREAT LAKES.

A STRONG SHORTWAVE OVER THE UPPER GREAT LAKES THURSDAY MORNING WILL
CARVE ITS WAY ACROSS WESTERN NEW YORK THURSDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING
WHILE ITS ATTENDENT SFC LOW WILL BE FOUND IN THE VCNTY OF THE SOO.
THIS WILL RESULT IN DETERIORATING CONDITIONS DURING THE COURSE OF
THE DAY WITH PARTIAL SUNSHINE GIVING WAY TO CLOUDS AND SCATTERED
AFTERNOON RAIN OR WET SNOW SHOWERS. NO SNOW ACCUMULATIONS ARE
EXPECTED UP TO THIS POINT AS DAYTIME HIGHS WILL BE IN THE UPPER 30S
TO LOWER 40S.

THE AFORMENTIONED SFC LOW WILL CROSS SOUTHERN ONTARIO AND SWEEP ITS
ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT ACROSS OUR REGION EARLY THURSDAY NIGHT.
TEMPERATURES IN ITS WAKE WILL ONLY BE MARGINALLY COLD ENOUGH TO
PRODUCE A LAKE RESPONSE...BUT THERE SHOULD BE ENOUGH INSTABILITY
ALOFT FROM PASSING MID LEVEL SHORTWAVES (PRONOUNCED CHANNELLED VORT)
TO SUPPORT AT LEAST SCATTERED SNOW SHOWERS. SNOW ACCUMULATIONS WILL
BE MINIMAL.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
TEMPERATURES WILL AVERAGE BELOW NORMAL DURING THE BULK OF THIS
PERIOD AS A HIGH AMPLITUDE TROUGH OVER THE EASTERN HALF OF NORTH
AMERICA WILL PRODUCE A FEED OF CANADIAN ARCTIC AIR ACROSS OUR
REGION. WHILE THERE WILL BE THE POTENTIAL FOR ANOTHER SIGNIFICANT
COASTAL STORM (AS PER THE GFS)...ANY SUCH STORM WOULD HAVE A LIMITED
IMPACT ON OUR REGION. IN FACT...LOW IMPACT WEATHER CAN BE
ANTICIPATED ACROSS OUR FORECAST AREA THROUGH THIS PERIOD WITH
NOTHING MORE THAN SNOW SHOWERS AND NUISANCE ACCUMULATIONS.

&&

.AVIATION /06Z TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
A BAND OF MODERATE SNOW HAS RECENTLY DEVELOPED FROM KBUF-KROC AND
WILL CONTINUE TO PRODUCE IFR THROUGH ABOUT 07Z-08Z BEFORE RAPIDLY
FALLING APART LATER TONIGHT. UPSLOPE SNOW SHOWERS WILL ALSO CONTINUE
ACROSS THE WESTERN SOUTHERN TIER WITH AREAS OF MVFR/IFR VSBY. EAST
OF LAKE ONTARIO MORE WIDESPREAD SNOW WILL DEVELOP OVERNIGHT WITH
LAKE ENHANCEMENT AND UPSLOPE FLOW. THIS WILL BRING AREAS OF IFR
AFTER 07Z-08Z. CIGS WILL GENERALLY BE MVFR THROUGH TONIGHT...
ALTHOUGH THERE WILL BE SOME SPOTTY IFR IN THE HEAVIER SNOW AND
ACROSS HIGHER TERRAIN.

ON TUESDAY IFR VSBY WILL LINGER EAST OF LAKE ONTARIO WITH MORE
PERSISTENT SNOW...ESPECIALLY IN THE MORNING. MVFR VSBY WILL ALSO
CONTINUE ACROSS THE HIGHER TERRAIN OF THE WESTERN SOUTHERN TIER IN
LIGHTER SNOW SHOWERS. ELSEWHERE EXPECT MAINLY VFR VSBY AND MVFR CIGS
THROUGH MUCH OF THE DAY.

WINDS WILL REMAIN QUITE STRONG OVERNIGHT...WITH GUSTS IN THE 30-40
KNOT RANGE...STRONGEST NORTHEAST OF LAKE ERIE FROM KBUF-KIAG OVER TO
KROC. WINDS WILL COME DOWN A LITTLE LATE TONIGHT AND TUESDAY...BUT
GUSTS WILL STILL RUN IN THE 25-30 KNOT RANGE.

OUTLOOK...
WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY...MAINLY VFR.
FRIDAY...MVFR/IFR WITH A CHANCE OF SNOW SHOWERS.
SATURDAY...MVFR/IFR WITH A CHANCE OF SNOW SHOWERS

&&

.MARINE...
WESTERLY GALES ARE EXPECTED THIS EVENING BEHIND A COLD FRONT.  THESE
WINDS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH TONIGHT...GRADUALLY SUBSIDING FROM WEST
TO EAST ON TUESDAY. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD ACROSS THE REGION
WEDNESDAY.

&&
