AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BUFFALO NY
1242 AM EST WED JAN 8 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
ARCTIC CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT AS FRIGID
TEMPERATURES AND STRONG GUSTY WINDS WILL KEEP WIND CHILLS WELL BELOW
ZERO. THE COLD WILL BE ACCOMPANIED BY LAKE EFFECT SNOW AND
SIGNIFICANT BLOWING SNOW EAST OF BOTH LAKES. THE COLD WEATHER WILL
EASE ITS GRIP ON THE REGION WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY...THEN NOTICEABLY
MILDER WEATHER IS EXPECTED FOR THE LATTER PORTION OF THE WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TODAY/...
...BLIZZARD WARNING FOR ERIE-GENESEE-WYOMING COUNTIES...

WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SHOWS A DEEP AND COLD LONG WAVE TROUGH OVER THE
CENTRAL AND EASTERN US...WITH SEVERAL SHORTWAVES RIDING THROUGH THIS
TROUGH. ONE SUCH SHORTWAVE WAS SWEEPING ACROSS THE OTTAWA VALLEY AT
03Z.

DURING THE OVERNIGHT...THE CORE OF THE ARCTIC AIR...ALONG WITH THE
CENTER OF THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH...WILL LIFT NORTHEASTWARD. H850
TEMPS WILL MODIFY FROM AROUND -20C TO -16/-18C WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON.
WIND CHILL WARNINGS AND ADVISORIES WILL THUS REMAIN IN EFFECT FOR
MUCH...IF NOT ALL...OF THE OVERNIGHT.

LAKE EFFECT SNOW WILL CONTINUE OFF BOTH GREAT LAKES THROUGH THE TIME
PERIOD. OUTSIDE OF THESE LAKE BANDS JUST A FEW STRAY SNOW FLURRIES
FLURRIES UNDER THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH.

FOR LAKE ERIE...A PAIR OF FAIRLY WELL DEFINED LAKE BVANDS WILL
EXTEND FROM THE BUF METRO AREA NORTHEASTWARD OVERNIGHT. WHILE THIS
ACTIVITY WILL WEAKEN SOMEWHAT WITH A LOWERING CAP...A DEEPENING
DENDRITIC GROWTH ZONE WILL ENCOURAGE THE SNOW TO BE FLUFFIER IN
NATURE. THIS WILL MAKE IT EASIER TO BLOW AROUND...WHICH LENDS ITSELF
WELL TO THE BLIZZARD WARNING THAT WILL REMAIN IN EFFECT OVERNIGHT FOR
ERIE...GENESEE AND WYOMING COUNTIES.

AS FOR LAKE ONTARIO...A SINGLE PLUME OF MODERATE TO HEAVY ALKES NOW
WILL REMAIN IN PLACE ACROSS THE TUG HILL AND SITES IMMEDIATE NORTH
AND EAST. SNOWFALL RATES OF 2 TO 3 INCHES PER HOUR ARE EXPECTED
WITHIN THE HEART OF THIS MORE IMPRESSIVE PLUME.

THE STRONG WINDS THAT HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCED THE PAST 24 HOURS WILL
GRADUALLY SUBSIDE OVERNIGHT TO ROUGHLY 15 TO 25 KNOTS IN MOST AREAS.
THIS SHOULD ALLEVIATE THE PROBLEMS BROUGHT ABOUT BY THE BLOWING
SNOW.

ON WEDNESDAY...THE LAKE EFFECT SNOW WILL LIFT NORTHWARD ONCE AGAIN
TOWARDS BUFFALO WHILE WEAKENING. ADDITIONAL SNOWFALL AMOUNTS WILL
ONLY BE A FEW INCHES.

OFF LAKE ONTARIO ON WEDNESDAY...INVERSION HEIGHTS WILL CONTINUE TO
FALL...BUT LIKE LAKE ERIE THE SNOW CRYSTAL GROWTH ZONE WILL WIDEN
SOME WITH THE WARMING ALOFT...AND AN INCREASE IN MOISTURE ALONG THE
SHORTWAVE MAY ALLOW FOR THE SNOWFLAKES TO BECOME LARGER...WITH SNOW
RATIOS RISING. THIS WILL MAINTAIN HEAVY AT TIMES LAKE SNOWS TO
CONTINUE THROUGH THE MORNING HOURS WEDNESDAY...WITH THE BAND OF LAKE
EFFECT SNOW LIFTING BACK NORTHWARD TOWARDS THE NORTHERN TUG HILL.

AIR TEMPERATURES OVERNIGHT WILL DROP BACK AGAIN INTO LOW SINGLE
DIGITS...AND BELOW ZERO ACROSS THE SOUTHERN TIER...BOSTON HILLS...
WYOMING HILLS AND BRISTOL HILLS REGION.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
LAKE EFFECT SNOW WILL CONTINUE TO BE A CONCERN THROUGH WEDNESDAY
NIGHT AND THURSDAY. FROM A SYNOPTIC STANDPOINT...THE DEEP LONGWAVE
TROUGH WILL CONTINUE TO PULL OUT THROUGH ATLANTIC CANADA THROUGH THE
PERIOD...BUT ONE LAST MID LEVEL TROUGH WILL SWING THROUGH SOUTHERN
QUEBEC LATE WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND THURSDAY MORNING. THIS WILL BRING A
MORE FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT FOR LAKE EFFECT SNOW OFF LAKE ONTARIO...
AS EQUILIBRIUM LEVELS RISE TO ABOVE 8K FEET OVERNIGHT AND FLOW
BECOMES WELL ALIGNED FROM NEAR DUE WEST.

EXPECT AN INITIAL RELATIVELY WEAK BAND NEAR WATERTOWN TO SINK SOUTH
INTO THE TUG HILL REGION OVERNIGHT AND INTENSIFY...WITH UP TO 2 INCH
PER HOUR SNOWFALL RATES. THE BAND WILL SINK AS FAR SOUTH AS CENTRAL
OSWEGO COUNTY BY THURSDAY MORNING WHERE IT WILL REMAIN...SLOWLY
WEAKENING AND EVENTUALLY ENDING IN PLACE BY MID TO LATE AFTERNOON AS
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS OVER THE LAKES. ONCE WE GET CLOSER TO THE EVENT
AND CONFIDENCE GROWS...LAKE EFFECT SNOW WARNINGS WILL LIKELY NEED TO
BE EXTENDED.

OFF LAKE ERIE...ACTIVITY WILL BE CONSIDERABLY WEAKER WITH MORE SHEAR
AND MUCH WEAKER INSTABILITY. EXPECT JUST SCATTERED LIGHT SNOW
SHOWERS NEAR BUFFALO IN THE EVENING TO SINK SOUTH INTO THE SOUTHERN
TIER AND END OVERNIGHT AS INVERSION HEIGHTS FALL BELOW 5K FEET.
RAPIDLY EXPANDING ICE COVER WILL ALSO LIMIT THE LAKE ERIE RESPONSE.

HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD OVERHEAD LATE THURSDAY AND THURSDAY EVENING
WITH A BRIEF RETURN TO DRY WEATHER. INCREASING WARM ADVECTION LATE
THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY MORNING MAY PRODUCE A FEW LIGHT SNOW
SHOWERS...BUT THIS SYSTEM LOOKS MUCH WEATHER THAN IT DID SEVERAL
DAYS AGO SO EXPECT LITTLE ACCUMULATION.

WARM ADVECTION WILL CONTINUE INTO FRIDAY WITH DRY WEATHER AND
TEMPERATURES RISING INTO THE 30S.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
A MAJOR PATTERN CHANGE WILL BRING A SIGNIFICANT WARMING TREND FOR
THE WEEKEND. THE MASSIVE ARCTIC OUTBREAK THIS WEEK HAS ESSENTIALLY
EMPTIED THE CANADIAN PLAINS AND ARCTIC OF COLD AIR. THIS WILL SET
THE STAGE FOR A JANUARY PAUSE IN THE PATTERN.

850MB TEMPS SOAR TO +6C OR BETTER BY SATURDAY WHICH WILL SEND
TEMPERATURES INTO THE 40S AT LEAST...WITH LOWER 50S NOT OUT OF THE
QUESTION. A STRONG MID LEVEL TROUGH AND COLD FRONT WILL BRING AN
ORGANIZED AREA OF RAIN TO THE REGION SATURDAY AND SATURDAY NIGHT.
MODELS ARE TRENDING WARMER AND WETTER WITH THIS SYSTEM...UP TO A
HALF INCH OR BETTER OF RAIN POSSIBLE. THIS MAY PRODUCE SOME FLOODING
CONCERNS...ESPECIALLY WHERE ICE JAMS HAVE FORMED FROM THE LAST
WARM-UP.

THE PATTERN WILL GROW GRADUALLY COLDER AND MORE TYPICAL NEXT WEEK.
THERE ARE SIGNS IN THE EXTENDED RANGE MODELS THAT AFTER THE JANUARY
PAUSE...THE COLD AIR WILL RE-LOAD AS SIGNIFICANT CROSS POLAR FLOW
DEVELOPS INTO THE CANADIAN ARCTIC. THIS MAY SET THE STAGE FOR MORE
ARCTIC AIR TO POUR INTO THE GREAT LAKES REGION BY AROUND THE 20TH OF
JANUARY.

&&

.AVIATION /06Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
BLIZZARD CONDITIONS WITH WHITE OUTS WILL BE EXPERIENCED AT BOTH KBUF
AND AND KART OVERNIGHT. WHILE CONDITIONS WILL SLIGHTLY IMPROVE AT
KBUF AS THE BAND OSCILLATES TO THE SOUTH...LIFR CONDITIONS SHOULD
PERSIST AT KART. THESE SAME AREAS CAN EXPECT WIND GUSTS TO 40 KNOTS
THROUGH ABOUT 05Z.

THE LAKE ERIE SNOWBAND WILL EXTEND TO THE NORTHEAST AND OCCASIONALLY
REDUCE CONDITIONS TO MVFR LEVELS AT KROC DURING THE FIRST HALF OF
TONIGHT. OTHERWISE...VFR CONDITONS ARE EXPECTED ACROSS THE REGION.

ON WEDNESDAY...IFR TO MVFR CONDITIONS WILL BE IN PLACE AT KBUF AND
KART...ALTHOUGH GRADUAL IMPROVEMENT IS EXPECTED DURING THE COURSE OF
THE AFTERNOON AS THE LAKE SNOWS WEAKEN. ELSEWHERE...VFR CONDITIONS
WILL PREVAIL WITH WEAKER WINDS.

OUTLOOK...
THURSDAY...VFR EXCEPT LAKE EFFECT SNOW WITH LOCAL IFR EAST OF LAKE
ONTARIO.
FRIDAY...A CHANCE OF LIGHT SNOW IN THE MORNING WITH LOCAL
MVFR/IFR...OTHERWISE VFR.
SATURDAY...MVFR WITH RAIN LIKELY.
SUNDAY...MAINLY VFR.

&&

.MARINE...
WE WILL CONTINUE THE MARINE HEADLINES OVERNIGHT AS AN EXTENDED
PERIOD OF WEST-SOUTHWESTERLY GALE FORCE WINDS PERSISTS OVER THE
EASTERN HALF OF LAKE ONTARIO. SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES WILL BE FOUND
ON THE NEARSHORE WATERS ELSEWHERE ON LAKE ONTARIO AND ON LAKE
ERIE.

WINDS AND WAVES WILL GRADUALLY DIMINISH ON WEDNESDAY AS THE LOW
RETREATS INTO THE POLAR REGIONS AND HIGH PRESSURE GRADUALLY SLIDES
TOWARDS THE GREAT LAKES. THE GRADIENT WILL REMAIN JUST TIGHT ENOUGH
TO KEEP WAVES FROM SUBSIDING BELOW SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY LEVELS UNTIL
WEDNESDAY NIGHT/THURSDAY MORNING. HIGH PRESSURE WILL THEN PUSH INTO
THE GREAT LAKES FROM THE SOUTH...RESULTING IN RELATIVELY CALM
CONDITIONS THROUGH THE REST OF THE WORK WEEK.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
RECENT HYDROGRAPHS AND VISUAL OBSERVATIONS INDICATE THAT ICE JAMS
FORMED DURING THE BRIEF WARM-UP LAST NIGHT ON BUFFALO...CAYUGA...
AND CAZENOVIA CREEKS IN THE BUFFALO AREA. AN ICE JAM HAS ALSO
FORMED ON THE GENESEE RIVER NEAR PORTAGEVILLE.

EVEN THOUGH ICE JAMS HAVE FORMED...TEMPERATURES DROPPING TO VERY
COLD VALUES HAVE COMPLETELY SHUT OFF RUNOFF. WITH JUST BASE FLOWS
RUNNING THROUGH THE CREEKS THE ICE JAMES WILL PROBABLY NOT PRODUCE
ANY SIGNIFICANT FLOODING. THEY WILL NEED TO BE WATCHED NEXT
WEEKEND HOWEVER WHEN TEMPERATURES WARM AGAIN AND RUNOFF BEGINS.

&&

.EQUIPMENT...
THE KBUF WSR-88D IS EXPERIENCING DEGRADED SIGNAL STRENGTH.
INTERNAL CALIBRATIONS ARE TRYING TO COMPENSATE...BUT THE RADAR IS
LIKELY READING RETURNS THAT ARE 5-8 DBZ BELOW WHAT WOULD NORMALLY
BE EXPECTED. THE RADAR WILL NEED TO BE TAKEN OUT OF SERVICE TO FIX
THE ISSUE...AND THIS WILL NOT BE DONE UNTIL A FAIR WEATHER DAY.

&&
