AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BUFFALO NY
335 PM EDT WED MAR 12 2014
.SYNOPSIS...
AN INTENSE WINTER STORM OVER SOUTHERN PENNSYLVANIA WILL PUSH EAST
INTO NEW JERSEY BY THIS EVENING...BEFORE SLIDING OFF THE NEW ENGLAND
COAST TONIGHT. THIS SYSTEM WILL KEEP HEAVY SNOW AND BLIZZARD
CONDITIONS ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA INTO THIS EVENING...WITH
GRADUALLY IMPROVING CONDITIONS THEN EXPECTED THE REMAINDER OF
TONIGHT AND THURSDAY AS THE STORM MOVES OUT TO SEA. OTHERWISE...
EXPECT WELL BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES BOTH TONIGHT AND THURSDAY AS A
QUICK SHOT OF VERY COLD AIR FOLLOWS IN THE WAKE OF THE STORM...
BEFORE READINGS MODERATE AGAIN ON FRIDAY.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH THURSDAY/...
...INTENSE LATE SEASON WINTER STORM TO CONTINUE IMPACTING OUR REGION
THROUGH TONIGHT...
DURING THIS PERIOD...AN INTENSE WINTER STORM LOCATED OVER SOUTHERN
PENNSYLVANIA AS OF MID AFTERNOON WILL SLIDE EAST TO NEW JERSEY BY
THIS EVENING...THEN OFF THE NEW ENGLAND COAST TONIGHT. IN ITS
WAKE...HIGH PRESSURE AND DRIER AIR WILL BUILD EAST ACROSS THE LOWER
GREAT LAKES ON THURSDAY. UNDER THIS EVOLUTION IN THE SYNOPTIC
PATTERN...THE MAJORITY OF WESTERN AND NORTH CENTRAL NEW YORK CAN
EXPECT BLIZZARD TO NEAR-BLIZZARD CONDITIONS TO CONTINUE INTO THIS
EVENING...WITH A WEST TO EAST IMPROVING TREND THEN SETTING IN
TONIGHT AND CONTINUING THROUGH THURSDAY.
LOOKING A BIT MORE CLOSELY AT THE FORECAST DETAILS...AS OF THIS
WRITING AREA RADARS SHOW OUR REGION EITHER ALREADY UNDER OR COMING
UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF THE STORM/S ATTENDANT AREA OF STRONG
DEFORMATION BAND/WRAPAROUND SNOWFALL...WHICH WILL SLOWLY PUSH EAST
ACROSS OUR AREA BETWEEN NOW AND EARLY THIS EVENING...AND WILL ALSO
BE ACCOMPANIED BY ADDITIONAL LAKE AND OROGRAPHIC ENHANCEMENT.
EXPECT THE WORST OVERALL CONDITIONS OF THE STORM TO COME DURING THIS
TIME FRAME...WITH HEAVY AND INCREASINGLY FLUFFIER SNOW BEING BLOWN
AND DRIFTED ABOUT BY STRONG NORTHERLY TO NORTHEASTERLY WINDS...WHICH
WILL CONTINUE TO GUST TO AS HIGH AS 40-50 MPH THROUGH EARLY THIS
EVENING. THIS WILL MAKE FOR EXTREMELY TREACHEROUS DRIVING CONDITIONS
AT BEST...SO TRAVELING IS STRONGLY DISCOURAGED UNLESS ABSOLUTELY
NECESSARY.
AROUND SUNSET OR SHORTLY AFTERWARD...EXPECT A GRADUAL WEST TO EAST
IMPROVING TREND TO BEGIN TO SET IN ACROSS FAR WESTERN NEW YORK...
BEFORE SPREADING EASTWARD THROUGH THE BALANCE OF THE NIGHT AS THE
MAIN DEFORMATION ZONE SLIDES OFF TO OUR EAST...AND THE PRESSURE
GRADIENT AND WINDS SLACKEN AS THE SURFACE LOW PULLS FURTHER EAST OF
OUR LONGITUDE. THIS WILL RESULT IN A LESSENING OF THE BLOWING/
DRIFTING SNOW AND THE SNOW FIRST BECOMING LIGHTER...BEFORE
EVENTUALLY TAPERING OFF TO SOME SCATTERED SNOW SHOWERS ACROSS
PORTIONS OF FAR WESTERN NEW YORK OVERNIGHT. FURTHER EAST...STEADIER
LIGHTER SNOWS WILL LINGER THROUGH THE NIGHT ACROSS THE GENESEE
VALLEY AND FINGER LAKES REGIONS AS THE SYNOPTIC SNOWS TRANSITION TO
NORTHERLY TO NORTHWESTERLY-FLOW LAKE EFFECT SNOWS OFF LAKE
ONTARIO...WHILE THE NORTH COUNTRY WILL LIKELY SEE SYNOPTIC SNOWS
LINGER THROUGH THE NIGHT GIVEN A CLOSER PROXIMITY TO THE DEPARTING
STORM. IN TERMS OF ADDITIONAL ACCUMULATIONS FROM LATE THIS AFTERNOON
ON THROUGH TONIGHT...EXPECT AN ADDITIONAL 5 TO 8 INCHES TO FALL
ACROSS FAR WESTERN NEW YORK...7 TO 10 INCHES ACROSS THE GENESEE
VALLEY AND FINGER LAKES...AND 8 TO 13 INCHES ACROSS THE NORTH
COUNTRY. THIS WILL BRING STORM TOTALS TO 6 TO 10 INCHES ACROSS
SOUTHERN PORTIONS OF THE SOUTHERN TIER...THE 10 TO 18 INCH RANGE
ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA SOUTH OF LAKE ONTARIO...AND AS HIGH AS 12 TO
20 INCHES EAST OF LAKE ONTARIO.
ON THURSDAY...EXPECT ANY LINGERING LIGHT SYNOPTIC SNOWS TO QUICKLY
END ACROSS THE NORTH COUNTRY EARLY IN THE MORNING...WITH LIMITED
WEAK LAKE EFFECT SNOWS SOUTH OF LAKE ONTARIO SHIFTING EASTWARD AND
BREAKING UP INTO SCATTERED SNOW SHOWERS OVER TIME AS THE FLOW BACKS
TO MORE WEST-NORTHWESTERLY...OUR AIRMASS DRIES OUT...AND STRONG
MID-MARCH DIURNAL EFFECTS COME INTO PLAY. GIVEN THAT THE CAPPING
INVERSION WILL ONLY BE AROUND 3 KFT...DO NOT EXPECT THESE TO PRODUCE
MUCH MORE THAN AN INCH OR TWO OF ADDITIONAL ACCUMULATION.
ELSEWHERE...LEFTOVER SCATTERED SNOW SHOWERS WILL COME TO AN END...
WITH SKIES TRENDING PARTLY SUNNY.
WITH RESPECT TO TEMPS...A QUICK SHOT OF BITTERLY COLD AIR WILL
FOLLOW IN THE WAKE OF THE STORM TONIGHT AND THURSDAY...WITH
NIGHTTIME LOWS TONIGHT GENERALLY RANGING FROM AROUND ZERO ACROSS THE
SOUTHERN TIER AND NORTH COUNTRY TO THE SINGLE DIGITS ELSEWHERE...
THOUGH AREAS ALONG THE LAKE ONTARIO SHORELINE WILL PROBABLY NOT DROP
MUCH BELOW 10 ABOVE GIVEN A CONTINUED ONSHORE FLOW. EVEN THOUGH
WINDS WILL BE DIMINISHING...THESE TEMPS WILL STILL BE ENOUGH TO
SUPPORT ADVISORY-CRITERIA WIND CHILLS ACROSS THE SOUTHERN TIER AND
LEWIS COUNTIES LATER TONIGHT INTO THURSDAY MORNING...FOR WHICH WIND
CHILL ADVISORIES REMAIN IN EFFECT. ON THURSDAY...HIGHS WILL ONLY
RECOVER INTO THE MID TEENS...WITH A STILL-BRISK NORTHWESTERLY WIND
KEEPING WIND CHILLS FROM GETTING ABOVE THE ZERO TO MINUS 10 RANGE.
&&
.SHORT TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
THURSDAY EVENING WILL START OFF WITH A NARROW RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE
EXTENDING UP THE APPALACHIANS INTO WESTERN NEW YORK. THIS RIDGE WILL
QUICKLY SHIFT EAST AS WARM AIR ADVECTION IN THE MID-LEVELS LIFTS
ACROSS OUR REGION LATE THURSDAY NIGHT. THERE WILL BE SOME LIGHT LAKE EFFECT
SNOW SOUTHEAST OF LAKE ONTARIO THURSDAY EVENING...WHICH SHOULD TAPER
OFF AS EQUILIBRIUM LEVELS LOWER IN RESPONSE TO THE WARMER AIR ALOFT.
THIS ALSO WILL BRING SOME SOME LIGHT SNOW OR FLURRIES WITH THE WARM
FRONT...WITH RISING TEMPERATURES LATER IN THE NIGHT.
FRIDAY WILL BRING A BRIEF RETURN OF MORE SEASONABLE WEATHER AS THE
WARM FRONT LIFTS JUST NORTH OF OUR REGION. MORNING CLOUDS SHOULD
GIVE WAY TO SOME SUN DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS SOUTH OF LAKE
ONTARIO. FORECAST HEDGES WITH THE WARMER GGEM GUIDANCE FOR
TEMPERATURES...WITH HIGHS IN THE MID TO UPPER 40S SOUTH OF LAKE
ONTARIO. LINGERING CLOUDS NEAR THE BOUNDARY SHOULD KEEP TEMPERATURES
COOLER EAST OF LAKE ONTARIO...GENERALLY IN THE UPPER 30S.
MODEL GUIDANCE HAS BEEN CONSISTENT IN TRACKING A CLIPPER LOW TO THE
NORTH OF LAKE ONTARIO ON FRIDAY NIGHT...WHICH WILL DROP A COLD FRONT
ACROSS OUR REGION FRIDAY EVENING. THIS WILL BRING SOME LIGHT RAIN OR
SNOW...MAINLY DURING THE EVENING HOURS. IT WILL USHER IN ONLY
SLIGHTLY COOLER AIR FOR SATURDAY...WITH HIGHS IN THE 30S.
&&
.LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
ON SATURDAY NIGHT A SECONDARY COLD FRONT WILL DROP ACROSS THE REGION
AND SETTLE JUST TO THE SOUTH OF OUR REGION. THIS WILL BRING A CHANCE
OF SNOW SHOWERS...WITH THE BEST CHANCE NORTHEAST OF LAKE ONTARIO
WHERE SOME MODEST LAKE ENHANCEMENT IS POSSIBLE. THERE IS SOME
DISAGREEMENT AS TO WHERE THE FRONT WILL STALL...WITH A MINORITY OF
THE GUIDANCE (GGEM) STALLING THE FRONT ALONG THE NY/PA BORDER...WITH
MOST OTHER GUIDANCE (GFS/ECMWF) DROPPING THE FRONT FURTHER SOUTH.
FOLLOWING THE MAJORITY OF THE GUIDANCE...EXPECT WE WILL
MOST LIKELY BE ON THE COLD SIDE OF THE BOUNDARY...WHICH WOULD LIMIT
HIGHS TO THE LOWER 20S ON SUNDAY...AND BRING A CHANCE FOR SOME LAKE
EFFECT SNOW SOUTHEAST OF LAKE ONTARIO. A STORM SYSTEM WILL DEVELOP
ALONG THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY...AND WILL LIKELY STAY TO OUR SOUTHEAST
AND TRACK OUT TO INTO THE ATLANTIC ON SUNDAY NIGHT. AGAIN THE GGEM
IS FURTHER NORTH WITH THE FRONT AND TRACK OF THE LOW...WHICH MAY
CLIP OUR CWA IF IT VERIFIES.
GUIDANCE COMES INTO BETTER AGREEMENT MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT...WITH
STRONG HIGH PRESSURE FORECAST TO RIDGE INTO THE REGION FROM THE UPPER
LAKES. THIS WILL BRING FAIR WEATHER FOR MONDAY...BUT BELOW NORMAL
TEMPERATURES. A FRONTAL BOUNDARY STALLED TO OUR SOUTH WILL LIFT
TOWARD THE REGION ON TUESDAY...BUT IT IS UNCERTAIN EXACTLY HOW FAR
NORTH IT WILL LIFT.
THE PAST SEVERAL RUNS OF THE GFS/ECMWF HAVE DIFFERED AS TO WHETHER
OUR REGION WILL BE ON THE WARM OR COLD SIDE OF THE BOUNDARY.
FORECAST FOLLOWS A CONSENSUS BLEND FOR NOW...WITH MIDDLE OF THE ROAD
TEMPERATURES AND CHANCE POPS.
&&
.AVIATION /20Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
AN INTENSE WINTER STORM OVER SOUTHERN PENNSYLVANIA WILL TRACK EAST
TO NEW JERSEY THROUGH EARLY THIS EVENING...WITH WIDESPREAD VLIFR TO
IFR CONDITIONS DOMINANT THROUGH THIS EVENING AS BLIZZARD CONDITIONS
AFFECT MUCH OF WESTERN NEW YORK. IN ADDITION TO THE VLIFR TO IFR
CONDITIONS...SIGNIFICANT BLOWING/DRIFTING OF SNOW WILL LIKELY
FURTHER DELAY GROUND OPERATIONS AT AREA TERMINALS.
AFTER ABOUT 00Z...A GRADUAL WEST TO EAST LESSENING OF THE HEAVY SNOW
AND BLOWING SNOW WILL BEGIN...WITH THIS DIMINISHING TREND SPREADING
EASTWARD THROUGH THE NIGHT...THOUGH SOME LIGHT SNOW AND GENERAL IFR
CONDITIONS WILL STILL LINGER THROUGH THE NIGHT SOUTH OF LAKE ONTARIO
AND ACROSS MUCH OF THE NORTH COUNTRY. ELSEWHERE...EXPECT GENERAL
IMPROVEMENT TO MVFR/LOW-END VFR.
ON THURSDAY...LINGERING SYNOPTIC-SCALE SNOW SHOWERS ACROSS THE NORTH
COUNTRY WILL END FAIRLY EARLY IN THE DAY...WITH LIMITED LAKE EFFECT
SNOW SHOWERS SOUTH OF LAKE ONTARIO SHIFTING EASTWARD AND BECOMING
MORE SCATTERED WITH TIME AS STRONG MID MARCH DIURNAL EFFECTS TAKE
HOLD. ELSEWHERE...SCATTERED SNOW SHOWERS WILL DIMINISH TO JUST SOME
LEFTOVER FLURRIES. OVERALL...EXPECT CONDITIONS TO RETURN TO VFR
AREAWIDE.
OUTLOOK...
THURSDAY NIGHT...VFR...WITH A CHANCE OF SNOW SHOWERS/MVFR.
FRIDAY...VFR...WITH A CHANCE OF SNOW SHOWERS/MVFR NORTH OF THE NYS
THRUWAY.
SATURDAY AND SUNDAY...VFR/MVFR WITH A CHANCE OF SNOW SHOWERS.
MONDAY...VFR.
&&
.MARINE...
AN INTENSE WINTER STORM OVER SOUTHERN PENNSYLVANIA WILL CONTINUE TO
STRENGTHEN AND PUSH EASTWARD LATE THIS AFTERNOON...EVENTUALLY
REACHING NEW JERSEY BY EARLY THIS EVENING. THIS STORM SYSTEM WILL
BRING HEAVY SNOW AND NORTHERLY TO NORTHEASTERLY GALES TO LAKES ERIE
AND ONTARIO THROUGH EARLY THIS EVENING...WITH BOTH THEN DIMINISHING
LATER TONIGHT AND THURSDAY IN ITS WAKE. THIS STATED...ADVISORY-LEVEL
CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO PERSIST ACROSS THE LOWER LAKES RIGHT
THROUGH THURSDAY.
&&
.HYDROLOGY...
WARM TEMPERATURES YESTERDAY CAUSED ICE TO BREAK UP ON SOME OF THE
BUFFALO CREEKS. THIS HAS CAUSED A FEW ICE JAMS...AND THE RISE AT THE
GAUGE LOCATION AT GARDENVILLE. AT THIS TIME...ICE JAMS ARE
LOCALIZED...WITH WATERS GENERALLY ABLE TO FLOW THROUGH THE ICE JAMS
CURRENTLY IN PLACE. THIS SAID...THERE MAY BE SOME LOCALIZED IMPACT ON
LOW LYING AREAS NEAR BUFFALO CREEK THROUGH THIS EVENING.
TEMPERATURES WILL RAPIDLY DROP...WHICH WILL HELP DIMINISH THE FLOW
INTO AREAS RESTRICTED BY ICE. AT THIS TIME...SIGNIFICANT ICE JAM
FLOODING IS NOT EXPECTED...BUT THE SITUATION WILL BE MONITORED BY
LOCAL EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT.
