AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BUFFALO NY
1234 PM EST SAT JAN 16 2016

.SYNOPSIS...
COLD AIR WILL BUILD INTO THE REGION THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK WHICH
WILL BRING A CONTINUED RISK FOR LAKE EFFECT SNOWS. LAKE SNOWS WILL
INTENSIFY NORTHEAST OF THE LAKES LATE TONIGHT AND SUNDAY...THEN
SHIFT TO THE SOUTHEAST OF THE LAKES LATE SUNDAY AND INTO NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
SURFACE COLD FRONT IS ALREADY ACROSS MOST OF THE CWA THIS
MORNING...AND THIS WILL GRADUALLY ADVECT COOLER AIR BEHIND IT TODAY.
COOLING TEMPERATURES ALOFT AND UPSLOPING HAS CAUSED SOME VERY LIGHT
PRECIPITATION ACROSS HIGHER TERRAIN IN WESTERN PORTIONS OF THE
SOUTHERN TIER...AND SHOULD ALSO HAPPEN ON THE TUG HILL. TEMPERATURES
WILL REMAIN ABOVE FREEZING FOR MUCH OF THE MORNING. THE BIGGEST
FORECAST CONCERN HERE IS THE SMALL POTENTIAL FOR PATCHY FREEZING
DRIZZLE BASED ON FORECAST THERMAL PROFILES. HOWEVER...BASED ON
UPSTREAM OBSERVATION AND MOST HIGH RESOLUTION GUIDANCE THIS ACTIVITY
SHOULD WEAKEN AND RESULT IN MAINLY DRY CONDITIONS UNTIL TEMPERATURES
ALOFT ARE COLD ENOUGH TO SUPPORT LIGHT SNOW SHOWERS LATER TODAY.

OUTSIDE OF THIS...TEMPERATURES REMAIN STEADY OR SLOWLY FALL DURING
THE DAY. SOUTHWEST WINDS WILL ALSO PICK UP BEHIND THE FRONT...GUSTING
TO 35 MPH ACROSS THE LAKE PLAINS. TEMPERATURES WILL DROP BELOW
FREEZING THIS AFTERNOON. THIS WILL PROVIDE SOME TIME FOR ROADS TO
DRY...ANY WATER THAT DOES REMAIN COULD FREEZE AND RESULT IN
A FEW SLICK SPOTS THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING.

TEMPERATURES ALOFT WILL COOL TONIGHT...WITH BUFKIT SHOWING CLOUD
TOPS COOLING ENOUGH TO SUPPORT DENDRITIC SNOW GROWTH THIS EVENING.
LAKE INDUCED INSTABILITY WILL STILL BE LIMITED...BUT EXPECT LAKE
EFFECT SNOW TO BECOME A BIT BETTER ORGANIZED. LATER TONIGHT...WINDS
SHIFT TO THE SOUTHWEST ON LAKE ERIE WHICH WILL SUPPORT A CONVERGENCE
ZONE ON THE LAKE AND PROVIDE A FOCUS FOR LAKE EFFECT SNOW. ONLY
HIGHER RESOLUTION GUIDANCE CAPTURES THIS (ARW/WRF/RGEM)...AND THIS
MAY BE A BIT FAR SOUTH WITH THE BAND DUE TO THE LIKELY FUNNELING
ALONG THE CHAUTAUQUA RIDGE. THIS COULD BRING 1 TO 3 INCHES TO THE
SOUTH TOWNS AND BOSTON HILLS THROUGH DAYBREAK SUNDAY.

OFF LAKE ONTARIO...CONSENSUS WIND FIELDS ARE LIGHTER WHICH SUGGESTS
A POOL OF LAKE EFFECT SNOW MAY DEVELOP ACROSS THE EASTERN WATERS AND
CLIP THE IMMEDIATE LAKESHORES EAST OF LAKE ONTARIO LATE TONIGHT.
HIGH RESOLUTION GUIDANCE SHOWS THIS...WITH QPF FIELDS SIMILAR TO AN
EARLY SEASON EVENT WHICH DID PRODUCE LOCALIZED HEAVY SNOWS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...
...ANOTHER SIGNIFICANT LAKE EFFECT SNOW EVENT EXPECTED SUNDAY INTO
NEXT WEEK...

THE BIG STORY DURING THIS PERIOD IS WITH A LONG LASTING LAKE EFFECT
SNOW EVENT THAT WILL AGAIN LIKELY BRING FEET OF SNOW EAST AND
SOUTHEAST OF THE EASTERN GREAT LAKES. THIS EVENT WILL BE TRIGGERED
BY A BROAD AND DEEP -2SD 500MB TROUGH WITH EMBEDDED CUT OFF LOW THAT
IS FORECAST TO DIG ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES REGION SUNDAY INTO
TUESDAY. THE AIRMASS WITHIN THIS TROUGH WILL BE OF ARCTIC ORIGINS
WITH 850MB TEMPS AS LOW AS -20C CROSSING THE STILL WIDE OPEN LAKES.

LAKE EFFECT SNOW EAST OF THE LAKES EARLY SUNDAY WILL INTENSIFY
THROUGH MONDAY ENHANCED BY A WEAK SURFACE LOW/TROUGH AND APPROACH OF
THE CORE OF THE COLDEST AIR ALOFT. WEST WINDS SUNDAY MORNING WILL
BACK TO SOUTHWEST AHEAD OF THE SURFACE LOW LIFTING INTENSIFYING SNOW
BANDS NORTH TO ABOUT BUFFALO OFF LAKE ERIE AND JUST SOUTH OF
WATERTOWN OFF LAKE ONTARIO BY SUNDAY AFTERNOON. THE SURFACE
LOW/TROUGH WILL PASS ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA SUNDAY EVENING WITH A
WIDESPREAD LIGHT SYNOPTIC SNOW FOR ALL THEN WINDS WILL VEER TO
NORTHWEST WITH A SURGE OF ARCTIC-SOURCED AIR ARRIVING IN ITS WAKE.
THIS WILL STEER SNOW BANDS TO SOUTHEAST OFF BOTH LAKES AS THEY
INCREASE TO NEAR PEAK INTENSITY THROUGH MONDAY AS LAKE INDUCED
EQUILIBRIUM LEVELS TOP OUT NEAR 15KFT OVER BOTH LAKES. 00Z NAM
BUFKIT TIME-HEIGHT PROFILES FOR SPRINGVILLE AND FULTON SHOW STRONG
CROSSHAIR SIGNATURES OF HIGH SYNOPTIC MOISTURE AND LIFT INTERSECTING
THE SNOW GROWTH REGION ON MONDAY AS THE SNOW BANDS REACH PEAK
INTENSITY. LAKE SNOWS WILL CONTINUE INTO TUESDAY SOUTHEAST OF BOTH
LAKES BUT WILL WEAKEN SOME AND SURFACE AND MID-LEVEL RIDGING AND
WARM ADVECTION ALOFT BEGIN TO LOWER LAKE EQUILIBRIUM LEVELS TO ABOUT
5KFT.

LAKE EFFECT SNOW WATCHES HAVE BEEN ISSUED AS OUTLINED IN THE LOWER
PART OF THE DISCUSSION AS CONFIDENCE FOR THIS SIGNIFICANT LAKE
EFFECT SNOW EVENT HAS INCREASED TO THE MEDIUM TO HIGH RANGE. THE
COMBINATION OF EXCELLENT MODEL SOUNDING PROFILES AND SUPPORT FROM
CIPS ANALOGS HAS LEAD TO THIS INCREASE IN CONFIDENCE. THREE OF THE
TOP FIVE CIPS ANALOGS FOR SUNDAY EVENING MATCH PREVIOUS SIGNIFICANT
LAKE EFFECT EVENTS. SNOW TOTALS FOR THESE TOP ANALOGS FROM JAN 2-5
1995...DEC 21-24 1999 AND JAN 6-9 2004 MEASURED SEVERAL FEET EAST OF
BOTH LAKES. THE BETTER PREFORMING LAKE BAND WILL AGAIN BE OFF LAKE
ONTARIO AS A MULTI-LAKE UPSTREAM MOISTURE CONNECTION IS SHOWN IN THE
MODELS. SNOWFALL RATES WITHIN BOTH BANDS WILL ALSO LIKELY REACH 2-3
INCHES PER HOUR DURING THE PEAK OF THE EVENT MONDAY AND MONDAY
NIGHT.

OUTSIDE OF THE MAIN LAKE EFFECT BANDS...EXPECT JUST SCATTERED LIGHT
SNOW SHOWERS AT TIMES WITH SOME BREAKS OF SUN POSSIBLE. BLOWING SNOW
WILL BE POSSIBLE ON MONDAY AS WINDS BECOME GUSTY WITH THE ARCTIC
PUSH. OTHERWISE...TEMPERATURES ON SUNDAY AND TUESDAY WILL ONLY TOP
OUT IN THE LOW TO MID 20S WITH THE COLDEST DAY BEING MONDAY WHERE
TEMPS WILL STRUGGLE TO BREAK INTO THE UPPER TEENS WITH THE ARCTIC
SOURCED AIRMASS OVERHEAD. OVERNIGHT LOWS ON SUNDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT
WILL BOTTOM OUT IN THE LOW TO MID TEENS AND EVEN SINGLE DIGITS
ACROSS THE NORTH COUNTY. MONDAY NIGHT WILL BE THE COLDEST AS NEARLY
ALL LOCATIONS DROP INTO THE SINGLE DIGITS WITH SOME BELOW
ZERO READINGS ACROSS THE NORTH COUNTY.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
MODEST HIGH PRESSURE AND INCREASING SHEAR SHOULD RESULT IN THE LAKE
SNOWS WEAKENING ON WEDNESDAY WHILE SHIFTING TO THE SOUTHERN
LAKESHORES AS MULTI-BANDS THEN FINALLY DIMINISHING THURSDAY.
THE NEXT WEAK LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM CROSSING THE GREAT LAKES THEN
CONTINUES TO LOOK TO BRING A GENERAL CHANCE OF SNOW SHOWERS TO THE
AREA ON FRIDAY. OTHERWISE TEMPERATURES SHOULD EXHIBIT A SLOW UPWARD
TREND...WITH MERCURY LEVELS RISING INTO THE UPPER 20S BY FRIDAY.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
THIS AFTERNOON...MVFR/IFR CIGS WILL PERSIST WITH CONSIDERABLE LOW
LEVEL MOISTURE IN PLACE. INCREASING SW WINDS WILL GUST TO NEAR 30
KNOTS. JHW SHOULD REMAIN IFR/LIFR DUE TO UPSLOPING WESTERLY FLOW.

TONIGHT...LAKE EFFECT SNOWS WILL BE THE MAIN ISSUE...WITH THESE
LIKELY TO DEVELOP NORTHEAST OF THE LAKES LATE TONIGHT WHICH MAY
IMPACT BUF TOWARD DAYBREAK. ELSEWHERE RESTRICTIONS SHOULD MAINLY
STEM FROM LOW CIGS...MAINLY IN THE MVFR CATEGORY EXCEPT LOWER AT JHW.

OUTLOOK...

SUNDAY...IFR IN LAKE EFFECT SNOW NORTHEAST OF THE LAKES...OTHERWISE
MVFR IN CHANCE OF SNOW SHOWERS.
MONDAY AND TUESDAY...IFR IN LAKE EFFECT SNOW SOUTHEAST OF THE
LAKES...MVFR/VFR WITH A CHANCE OF SNOW SHOWERS ELSEWHERE.
WEDNESDAY...MVFR/IFR IN DIMINISHING LAKE EFFECT SNOWS SOUTHEAST OF
THE LAKES.
THURSDAY...MVFR/VFR IN CHANCE OF LAKE EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS
SOUTHEAST OF THE LAKES.

&&

.MARINE...
THERE WILL BE AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF WINDY CONDITIONS ON THE LAKES DUE
TO A SERIES OF DISTURBANCES AND A COLD AIR ADVECTION FLOW WHICH WILL
HELP MIX WINDS ALOFT TO THE SURFACE. EXPECT 925MB WINDS TO SERVE AS
A GOOD PROXY FOR SURFACE WINDS DUE TO THIS MIXING.

WINDS WILL BRIEFLY DIMINISH LATE TONIGHT AND SUNDAY MORNING...BUT
PICK UP AGAIN BEHIND THE NEXT SHORTWAVE LATE SUNDAY. DUE TO THE
BRIEF NATURE OF THIS DECLINE AND CONTINUED WAVE ACTION THE SMALL
CRAFT ADVISORIES HAVE BEEN EXTENDED INTO TUESDAY FOR ALL OF THE
LAKES.

WINDS MAY BRIEFLY APPROACH GALE ON LAKE ONTARIO THIS AFTERNOON...AND
AGAIN ON MONDAY WHEN WINDS INCREASE WITH THE PASSAGE OF SHORTWAVES.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
CAZENOVIA CREEK AT EBENEZER HAS RISEN TO ACTION STAGE. THIS IS
LIKELY DUE TO AN ICE JAM RATHER THAN HIGH FLOWS. ICE JAMS ARE
DIFFICULT TO PREDICT...HOWEVER DUE TO ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES
THE ICE SHOULD NOT BE VERY THICK. AS A RESULT...IT IS MORE LIKELY
THAN NOT THAT THE JAM WILL BREAK UP RATHER EASILY AND NOT RESULT
IN ANY FLOODING. BUFFALO AREA CREEKS TYPICALLY PRONE TO ICE JAMS
WILL BE MONITORED TODAY.
