What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this small craft advisory went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Buffalo, NY wrote its last area forecast discussion before this small craft advisory went out at Dec 16, 1:29 PM EST, 1 hour 18 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Dec 16, 1:29 PM EST, 1 hour 18 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Buffalo NY 129 PM EST Sun Dec 16 2018 .SYNOPSIS... Low pressure moving along the southern New England coast will continue to produce a mix of rain and wet snow through early this evening. A cold front will then cross the eastern Great Lakes early Monday morning with a few snow showers. Some limited lake effect will develop southeast of the lakes later Monday and Monday night with spotty minor accumulations. Temperatures will be seasonable through Tuesday before a significant warming trend arrives later in the week. && .NEAR TERM /THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/... Radar imagery showing the most persistent precip from Southern Erie and Wyoming counties eastward across the Genesee Valley to points southeast of Lake Ontario as of early afternoon. Surface obs show most of this is falling as rain, although a few wet snowflakes may be mixing in at times. Scattered sprinkles and light showers also extend into portions of the Niagara Frontier and western Southern Tier. A mid level closed low will continue to move off the Mid Atlantic coast this afternoon and evening before moving to east of Cape Cod by Monday morning, with a surface low taking a similar track. Our region will remain on the northwest periphery of this system, with mainly light precipitation tapering off from west to east later this afternoon and evening. Temperatures aloft will continue to cool in the northwest quadrant of the mid level low, and this will allow the rain to mix with, or change to wet snow this afternoon from the interior Southern Tier through the Finger Lakes to the southern Tug Hill region. Any snow accumulation will be slushy and minor, with less than an inch in a few spots. Precipitation will end by early evening from the Genesee Valley eastward, and by mid evening east of Lake Ontario. Once the precipitation with the east coast low exits, the remainder of tonight will be dry. There may be a few breaks in the clouds briefly, but low level moisture will increase again late tonight with low clouds moving back into the area. Lows will be in the lower 30s on the lake plains with upper 20s across higher terrain. A sharp mid level trough will dig into Quebec and northern New England Monday, with an attendant cold front crossing the eastern Great Lakes early in the morning. The cold front will produce a few scattered snow showers of little consequence. The airmass will grow cold enough by late morning or midday for some lake response. Lake induced equilibrium levels will rise to around 8K feet Monday afternoon and evening, before steadily dropping later Monday night. Deeper moisture and better synoptic scale support will be found over Lake Ontario, with less favorable conditions off Lake Erie. Off Lake Ontario... Northwest flow will become established by late Monday morning behind the cold front, supporting relatively weak multiple band structure along much of the south shore from the Niagara Frontier eastward across Rochester to Oswego County, and down through the Finger Lakes. The flow direction, and mesoscale model guidance such as the 3KM NAM, ARW, and NMM support the Georgian Bay connection setting up to the southwest of Rochester late Monday and Monday night. The exact placement of these upstream connections is difficult to forecast, but it may produce slightly higher snow amounts from Niagara/Orleans/Genesee counties into the western Finger Lakes. The lake response will peak Monday afternoon and evening before slowly tapering off later Monday night as inversion heights lower. Expect a dusting to an inch or two in most areas, with a few spotty amounts of up to 3 inches across Wayne, N.Cayuga, Oswego counties and possibly near the Georgian Bay band to the southwest of Rochester if it materializes. Off Lake Erie... More shallow synoptic scale moisture and short northwest fetch will limit lake effect potential. Most of the snow will focus across the higher terrain from the Chautauqua Ridge into the Hills of southern Erie and western Wyoming counties with an added boost from upslope flow. The wind direction looks to place the better Lake Huron connection over northwest PA if it materializes. Expect the upslope snow to develop Monday morning and continue through Monday evening before slowly tapering off later Monday night. Accumulations will be limited to a dusting to an inch or two across the higher terrain. Temperatures will be seasonable Monday, with highs in the mid 30s on the lake plains and around 30 across higher terrain. Lows Monday night will be low to mid 20s in most areas, with teens east of Lake Ontario where some clearing may develop overnight. && .SHORT TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/... Snow showers will be rapidly diminishing on weakening northwesterly flow early in the day on Tuesday. Ridging will summarily build in fairly quickly, dropping inversion heights and decimating the moist layer below it. High pressure will continue to build in through midweek, which will result in rapidly moderating then warming conditions Wednesday into Thursday. As high pressure starts to emerge to the east by the second half of the work week, warm advection will kick into high gear with isentropic ascent ahead of a very deep and increasingly negatively- tilted system that arrives by Thursday night. With warm air in place, widespread rain will result as even low temperatures stay well above freezing by that juncture. && .LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/... Lingering wraparound moisture and cyclonic flow on the backside of the system for the end of the work week should keep at least a chance of rain and snow showers around on Saturday...with upsloping possibly helping to enhance these a bit east of the lakes. With regard to temperatures...these should remain mild through Friday with highs in the mid 40s to around 50...before these settle back into the mid to upper 30s for Saturday. && .AVIATION /19Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/... Low pressure moving northeast just off the eastern seaboard will continue to produce a mix of rain and wet snow this afternoon. Most of the precipitation will be light, with areas of rain seeing VFR VSBY while areas that change to wet snow may briefly drop to MVFR or IFR. CIGS will be mainly VFR with some patchy MVFR across higher terrain. The precipitation will end from west to east later this afternoon and evening. A cold front will cross the area early Monday morning. The cold front may produce a few scattered light snow showers. Lake effect snow showers will develop southeast of the lakes later Monday morning through the afternoon with areas of MVFR CIGS and IFR VSBY. Outlook... Monday night...VFR/MVFR with a chance of snow showers. Lake effect snow showers likely southeast of the lakes with local IFR. Tuesday...MVFR CIGS possible early, otherwise VFR. Wednesday...Mainly VFR. Thursday...Mainly VFR with a chance of rain showers late. Friday...MVFR/IFR with rain likely. && .MARINE... Northeast winds will continue to produce choppy conditions along the south shores of Lakes Ontario and Erie today before diminishing this evening. Conditions will remain below Small Craft Advisory levels through this evening. A cold front will cross the eastern Great Lakes early Monday morning. Westerly winds will increase just ahead of the front, then become northwest and increase further Monday afternoon and night. This will produce high end Small Craft Advisory conditions on both lakes. && .BUF WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... NY...None.
