AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BUFFALO NY
1159 PM EST WED JAN 7 2015

.SYNOPSIS...
A BLAST OF ARCTIC AIR WILL SEND AIR TEMPERATURES DOWN TO ZERO BY
TONIGHT...AND DOWN INTO THE NEGATIVE TEENS EAST OF LAKE ONTARIO.
BRISK WINDS WILL CREATE DANGEROUSLY LOW WIND CHILLS THROUGH TONIGHT.
THE NORTHWESTERLY FLOW WILL FAVOR LAKE EFFECT SNOW TO AREAS SOUTH OF
LAKE ONTARIO THROUGH TONIGHT...BEFORE WESTERLY WINDS CARRY THE LAKE
SNOWS TO AREAS EAST OF THE LAKES DURING THE DAY THURSDAY. A CLIPPER
SYSTEM WILL PRODUCE GENERAL LIGHT SNOWFALL THURSDAY NIGHT...THEN
ANOTHER ROUND OF LAKE EFFECT SNOW IS EXPECTED EAST OF LAKES ERIE AND
ONTARIO FRIDAY AND FRIDAY NIGHT.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH THURSDAY/...
BROAD CYCLONIC FLOW ALOFT REMAINS IN PLACE ACROSS THE NORTHEAST
CONUS. AN ARCTIC AIRMASS IS IN PLACE ACROSS THE REGION THIS
AFTERNOON...WITH 850 MB TEMPERATURES DOWN TO NEARLY -30C. WINDS OF
20 TO 30 MPH IN THE NORTHWEST FLOW ARE COMBINING WITH THE SINGLE
DIGIT TEMPERATURES TO PRODUCE WIND CHILL VALUES TO AROUND 20 BELOW
ZERO. A WIND CHILL ADVISORY REMAINS IN PLACE FOR MUCH OF WESTERN AND
CENTRAL NEW YORK. TEMPERATURES IN THE NORTH COUNTRY WILL FALL INTO
THE TEENS BELOW ZERO OVERNIGHT WHERE THE BETTER SNOW PACK AND COLD
TEMPERATURES LINE UP. WIND CHILLS IN THE NORTH COUNTRY WILL FALL TO
35 BELOW ZERO OVERNIGHT...AND THUS A WIND CHILL WARNING REMAINS IN
PLACE THERE.

NORTHWESTERLY FLOW ACROSS THE AREA IS PRODUCING SCATTERED TO
NUMEROUS LAKE EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS AND NARROW SQUALLS SOUTHEAST OF
THE LAKES. A LAKE EFFECT SNOW ADVISORY IS IN PLACE SOUTHEAST OF LAKE
ONTARIO FROM ROCHESTER ACROSS TO CAYUGA COUNTY THROUGH EARLY
THURSDAY MORNING...AND FOR OSWEGO COUNTRY THROUGH NOON THURSDAY.
MULTIBANDED TYPE LAKE EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS WILL PERSIST WITH THE COLD
TEMPERATURES AND NORTHWESTERLY FLOW PRODUCING SEVERAL INCHES OF
ACCUMULATION IN THE MOST PERSISTENT BANDS. FROM THIS POINT FORWARD
EXPECT THE GREATEST AMOUNTS TO FOCUS FROM THE MONROE COUNTY
LAKESHORE AND EASTERN SUBURBS OF ROCHESTER EASTWARD TO OSWEGO
COUNTY. SNOW ACCUMULATIONS ARE BEING MODERATED BY THE FACT THAT THE
COLUMN IS COLDER THAN THE DENDRITIC GROWTH TEMPERATURES...THUS
PRODUCING TINY SNOWFLAKES AND HAMPERING SNOW RATIOS. THE BETTER
SNOWFALL OFF OF LAKE ERIE IS OCCURRING ACROSS NORTHWEST PA THIS
EVENING...WHERE AN UPSTREAM CONNECTION TO LAKE HURON IS HELPING TO
ENHANCE THE SNOW BAND. ACROSS THE WESTERN SOUTHERN TIER...SNOW BANDS
ARE MUCH LIGHTER.

OFF OF LAKE ONTARIO LATER TONIGHT...THE FLOW WILL TURN MORE
WESTERLY...WHICH WILL HELP TO DEVELOP A SINGLE LAKE EFFECT SNOW BAND
OFF OF LAKE ONTARIO. INITIALLY THIS BAND WILL SET UP ACROSS WAYNE
AND NORTHERN CAYUGA COUNTY THEN SHIFT NORTHEAST ACROSS OSWEGO COUNTY
BY THURSDAY MORNING. THIS BAND WILL THEN PUSH NORTHWARD THROUGH THE
DAY ON THURSDAY TOWARDS WATERTOWN. SNOWFALL RATES WILL INCREASE BY
EARLY THURSDAY MORNING WITH THIS BAND AS LOW-LEVEL TEMPERATURES WARM
ENOUGH TO ACTIVATE THE DENDRITIC GROWTH PROCESS AND THE BAND
CONSOLIDATES AND BECOMES STRONGER. A LAKE EFFECT SNOW ADVISORY
REMAINS IN PLACE FOR OSWEGO COUNTY THROUGH NOON THURSDAY...AFTER
WHICH THE BAND WILL BE LOCATED NORTH INTO LEWIS AND JEFFERSON
COUNTIES. THE LAKE EFFECT SNOW ADVISORIES FOR JEFFERSON AND LEWIS
ARE IN PLACE THROUGH 6PM THURSDAY. WHILE SNOW RATES WITH THE BAND
COULD PUSH TWO INCHES AN HOUR...AT THIS POINT IT APPEARS THE BAND
WILL LIFT NORTH JUST FAST ENOUGH TO PREVENT WARNING CRITERIA SNOW AT
ANY ONE SPOT...ALTHOUGH IT WILL BE CLOSE. IF THE BAND INTENSIFIES
ENOUGH AN UPGRADE TO A WARNING EAST OF LAKE ONTARIO MAY BECOME
NECESSARY.

OFF OF LAKE ERIE TONIGHT...MULTIBANDED SNOWFALL SHOULD INCREASE
ACROSS THE WESTERN SOUTHERN TIER OVERNIGHT AS TEMPERATURES INCREASE
ALLOWING FOR BETTER DENDRITIC GROWTH. A FEW INCHES OF ACCUMULATION
ARE EXPECTED ACROSS THE SOUTHERN TIER AND SOUTHERN ERIE COUNTIES
THROUGH THURSDAY MORNING...BUT SHOULD REMAIN BELOW ADVISORY
CRITERIA. THE BAND WILL BECOME MORE SINGULAR AND BRIEFLY ORGANIZED
IN NATURE AS IT LIFTS ACROSS SOUTHERN ERIE COUNTY AND NORTHWARD
TOWARD THE BUFFALO METRO AREA BY MID-DAY. HOWEVER...THE BAND WILL BE
QUICKLY LIMITED IN THE AFTERNOON BY VERY DRY AIR JUST ABOVE THE
BOUNDARY LAYER AND A LOWERING CAPPING INVERSION. THUS DONT EXPECT
THIS BAND WILL PACK MUCH OF A PUNCH AS IT MOVES THROUGH THE BUFFALO
AREA...THEN FALLS APART LATE AFTERNOON AS SHEAR INCREASES.

&&

.SHORT TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
...SIGNIFICANT LAKE EFFECT SNOW EVENT SETTING UP THURSDAY NIGHT
THROUGH SATURDAY...

OVERALL PATTERN...DEEP LONGWAVE TROUGH ENCOMPASSING MUCH OF NORTH
AMERICA DURING THIS PERIOD...EXCEPT FOR SOME RIDGING FROM THE DESERT
SOUTHWEST INTO BRITISH COLUMBIA...WITH A CROSS POLAR FLOW DUMPING
ARCTIC AIR INTO THE MUCH OF THE CONUS. AN ELONGATED 150 KNOT JET
STREAM STRETCHES ALONG THE TROUGH FROM THE CANADIAN PRAIRIES ALL THE
WAY OUT ACROSS THE NORTH ATLANTIC TO 20 DEGREES WEST LONGITUDE. A
1055 MB ARCTIC HIGH CENTERED ALONG THE ALBERTA/SASKATCHEWAN
BORDER...RIDGING SOUTHEAST THE THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY. THE
NORTH AMERICAN LONG WAVE TROUGH WILL BE REINFORCED BY CURRENT COLD
AIR ADVECTION INTO THE BASE OF THE TROUGH...AND A COUPLE OF SHORT
WAVE TROUGHS EMERGING FROM THE POLE REGION. ONE OF THESE SHORT WAVE
WILL SWING THROUGH THE GREAT LAKES THURSDAY NIGHT INTO
FRIDAY...FOLLOWED BY A WEAK SECONDARY PIECE OF ENERGY LATER
FRIDAY/FRIDAY NIGHT. A GENERAL 1-3/2-4 INCH SYNOPTIC SNOWFALL EVENT
WILL DEVELOP WITH THE PASSING SHORT WAVE THURSDAY NIGHT...WITH
LAKE EFFECT SNOWS SETTING UP WITH ITS PASSAGE.

THE LAKE EFFECT SNOW AMOUNTS WILL EVENTUALLY BECOME SIGNIFICANT BY
THE END OF THE PERIOD. THE 60-72 HOUR CIPS ANALOGS SUGGESTING THE
POTENTIAL FOR SEVERAL FEET OF SNOW OFF BOTH LAKES...WITH THE MOST
SIGNIFICANT TOTALS SOUTH OF BUFFALO AND WATERTOWN. THIS EVENT HAS
THE POTENTIAL TO VERY DISRUPTIVE TO TRAVEL WITH POSSIBLE CLOSURES OF
MAJOR HIGHWAYS...INCLUDING THE NEW YORK STATE THRUWAY AND INTERSTATE
81.

AS FOR THE LAKE EFFECT SPECIFICS...

OFF LAKE ERIE...LOW LEVEL FLOW BACKING TO SOUTH SOUTHWEST WILL FOCUS
LAKE ENHANCED SNOWFALL INITIALLY NORTH OF THE BUFFALO AREA. VEERING
FLOW BEHIND THE SHORTWAVE WILL FOCUS A SIGNIFICANT LAKE BAND ON A
SOUTHWEST FLOW INTO THE BUFFALO METRO AREA BY DAYBREAK FRIDAY
MORNING...AS OVER-LAKE INSTABILITY SHARPLY INCREASING WITH
EQUILIBRIUM LEVELS NEARING 10K FEET. COMBINATION OF SNOWFALL RATES
IN EXCESS OF 2 INCHES PER HOUR AND WIND GUSTS OVER 30 MPH WILL MAKE
FOR EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TRAVEL CONDITIONS DURING THE FRIDAY MORNING
COMMUTE. THE BAND WILL LIKELY SWING THROUGH FAIRLY QUICKLY AS THE
FLOW CONTINUES TO VEER TO A MORE WEST SOUTHWEST ORIENTATION BY MID
DAY WITH A SIGNIFICANT LAKE BAND SETTING UP ACROSS THE DISTANT
BUFFALO SOUTHTOWNS AND NORTHERN PORTIONS OF THE SOUTHERN
TIER...REMAINING THERE WELL INTO SATURDAY. ONCE THE LAKE BAND SETS
UP...THE OVER-LAKE INSTABILITY BECOMES EXTREME WITH LAKE INDUCED
CAPES OVER 500 J/KG AND EQUILIBRIUM LEVELS NEAR 12K FEET. THESE
INSTABILITY FIELDS WOULD SUGGEST THE POTENTIAL FOR INTENSE SNOWFALL
RATES IN EXCESS OF 3 INCHES PER HOUR. WINDS GUSTING TO NEAR 30 MPH
WILL RESULT IN SIGNIFICANT BLOWING AND DRIFTING SNOW WITH NEAR
WHITEOUT CONDITIONS. A LAKE EFFECT SNOW WATCH HAS BEEN ISSUED
ACCORDINGLY FOR AREAS EAST OF LAKE ERIE...INCLUDING THE METRO
BUFFALO ALTHOUGH IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT THE MOST SIGNIFICANT SNOWS
AREA LIKELY ACROSS THE DISTANT BUFFALO SOUTHTOWNS INTO THE WESTERN
SOUTHERN TIER.

OFF LAKE ONTARIO...LOW LEVEL FLOW BACKING TO SOUTH SOUTHWEST WILL
FOCUS LAKE ENHANCED SNOWFALL WELL NORTH OF WATERTOWN ACROSS THE
SAINT LAWRENCE VALLEY. VEERING FLOW BEHIND THE SHORTWAVE WILL FOCUS
A SIGNIFICANT LAKE BAND ON A SOUTHWEST FLOW INTO THE WATERTOWN AREA
BY MIDDAY FRIDAY...AS OVER-LAKE INSTABILITY SHARPLY INCREASING WITH
EQUILIBRIUM LEVELS NEARING 12K FEET. THE FLOW WILL CONTINUE TO VEER
TO A MORE WESTERLY ORIENTATION BY LATE FRIDAY AND FRIDAY NIGHT WITH
A SIGNIFICANT LAKE BAND SETTING UP ACROSS THE TUG HILL REGION
...REMAINING THERE WELL INTO SATURDAY. ONCE THE LAKE BAND SETS
UP...THE OVER-LAKE INSTABILITY BECOME EXTREME WITH LAKE INDUCED
CAPES OVER 1000 J/KG AND EQUILIBRIUM LEVELS NEAR 14K FEET. THESE
INSTABILITY FIELDS WOULD SUGGEST THE POTENTIAL FOR INTENSE SNOWFALL
RATES OF 3 TO 5 INCHES OR MORE PER HOUR. WINDS GUSTING TO NEAR 30
MPH WILL RESULT IN SIGNIFICANT BLOWING AND DRIFTING SNOW WITH NEAR
WHITEOUT CONDITIONS. A LAKE EFFECT SNOW WATCH HAS BEEN ISSUED
ACCORDINGLY FOR AREAS EAST OF LAKE ONTARIO...INCLUDING THE WATERTOWN
AREA ALTHOUGH IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT THE MOST SIGNIFICANT SNOWS
WILL OCCUR ACROSS THE TUG HILL REGION.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
THE FLOW PATTERN BECOMES MORE ZONAL ALOFT SUNDAY INTO EARLY NEXT
WEEK...WITH 850 MB TEMPERATURES MODERATING. THIS WILL ALLOW OUR
TEMPERATURES TO APPROACHING VALUES THAT WILL BE CLOSER TO NORMAL.
INSTABILITY OVER THE LAKES WILL END EFFECTIVELY TAKING LAKE EFFECT
SNOW TAKEN OUT OF PLAY. THERE COULD BE SOME LINGERING SCATTERED SOW
SHOWERS SUNDAY AND MONDAY...BUT SNOWFALL SHOULD BE QUITE MINOR. HIGH
PRESSURE AND DRY AIR LOOK TO SETTLE ACROSS THE REGION TUESDAY AND
WEDNESDAY WITH DRY WEATHER FORECAST DURING THIS TIMEFRAME.

&&

.AVIATION /06Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
NORTHWEST FLOW WILL CONTINUE TO PRODUCE A WIDE AREA OF NARROW
MULTIPLE BANDS OF LAKE EFFECT SNOW SOUTHEAST OF THE LAKES. THE VERY
COLD AIR IS PROMOTING LOW VISIBILITIES EVEN IN LIGHT SNOW...WITH
WIDESPREAD IFR TONIGHT SOUTHEAST OF THE LAKES INCLUDING KJHW AND
KROC. LATE TONIGHT AND EARLY THURSDAY BOUNDARY LAYER WINDS WILL BACK
TO THE WEST AND EVENTUALLY SOUTHWEST. THIS WILL ALLOW LAKE EFFECT TO
CONSOLIDATE INTO SMALLER AREAS EAST OF THE LAKES. THE LAKE ERIE BAND
WILL BE WEAKENING ON ITS WAY NORTH...BUT STILL MAY PRODUCE A FEW
HOURS OF IFR VSBY AT KBUF FROM MID TO LATE MORNING THROUGH MID
AFTERNOON. EAST OF LAKE ONTARIO THE BAND SHOULD REMAIN STRONGER...
WITH SNOW MOVING INTO KART BY MID MORNING AND CONTINUING THROUGH THE
AFTERNOON WITH IFR CONDITIONS.

WIDESPREAD MVFR CIGS TONIGHT SOUTHEAST OF THE LAKES WITH LOCAL IFR
CIGS ACROSS HIGHER TERRAIN AND IN HEAVIER SNOW BANDS. THE LOWER CIGS
WILL THEN CONTRACT INTO THE SMALLER SINGLE BANDS OF LAKE EFFECT SNOW
THURSDAY MORNING WITH AREAS OUTSIDE OF THESE BANDS IMPROVING TO VFR.

THURSDAY EVENING A GENERAL LIGHT TO MODERATE SNOW WILL OVERSPREAD
THE REGION QUICKLY FROM WEST TO EAST AS LOW PRESSURE MOVES BY JUST
NORTH OF THE LAKES AND AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE ENTERS THE REGION.
EXPECT WIDESPREAD IFR VSBY TO DEVELOP AROUND 02Z IN THE
WEST...SPREADING INTO CENTRAL NY AND THE NORTH COUNTRY BY AROUND 05Z.

OUTLOOK...
FRIDAY...IFR WITH HEAVY LAKE EFFECT SNOW EAST OF THE LAKES AND SOME
LIGHTER SNOW LIKELY ELSEWHERE.
SATURDAY...HEAVY LAKE EFFECT SNOW EAST OF THE LAKES WITH IFR...VFR
ELSEWHERE.
SUNDAY...MAINLY VFR WITH A CHANCE OF SNOW SHOWERS EAST OF LAKE
ONTARIO AND LOCAL MVFR.
MONDAY...MVFR WITH A CHANCE OF SNOW SHOWERS.

&&

.MARINE...
HIGH END ADVISORY LEVEL WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO CONTINUE ACROSS LAKES
ERIE AND ONTARIO THROUGH AT LEAST SATURDAY...AND THUS A SMALL CRAFT
ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT. WINDS WILL BE NEAR-GALE AT TIMES /UP TO
30 KTS/ HOWEVER ARE EXPECTED TO STAY JUST BELOW THE GALE THRESHOLD.
BITTER COLD TEMPERATURES WILL COMBINE WITH THESE WINDS TO PRODUCE A
SIGNIFICANT ICING THREAT ON BOTH LAKES THROUGH WEDNESDAY
EVENING...THUS A HEAVY FREEZING SPRAY WARNING WILL REMAIN IN EFFECT.

&&
