Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Buffalo NY
537 PM EDT Wed Apr 4 2018
.SYNOPSIS...
Damaging winds will continue into the early evening hours before
noticeably diminishing through the night. Weak surface high pressure
will then begin to build into the region later tonight and tomorrow,
though a few flurries of snow or light snow showers will fly to the
southeast of the Great Lakes. A weak clipper system will cross the
Eastern Great Lakes Thursday night with some light snow expected
through Friday.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH THURSDAY/...
An intense vertically stacked low near the Ontario and Quebec
border will move into southern Quebec this evening. Its impacts
will continue to diminish into this evening, but winds will
still be strong with gusts in excess of 60 mph lasting until
about sunset in western New York, and a few hours longer east of
Lake Ontario. There have been numerous reports of damage from
these strong winds through late afternoon, and we will keep all
high wind warnings in place at this time.
In addition to the winds, the combination of moisture near the
low pressure system and lake enhancement due to cooling
temperatures aloft will result in snow showers through tonight.
These will be particularly impactful east and southeast of Lake
Ontario into this evening, with the combination of snow and
winds resulting in snow squalls. Snow showers will become less
widespread by late evening as the upper low pulls away and
diminishes moisture. However, with temperatures at 850 hPa
dropping to -13 to -14C, more localized lake effect snow is
likely east and southeast of the lakes tonight. Mesoscale
guidance hints at an upstream connection to Georgian Bay which
may result in narrow bands late tonight south of Lake Ontario.
Drier air associated with approaching high pressure will limit
snow accumulations to just 1-3" across the hills of SW NYS and
the southern Tug Hill region. These snows will continue into
tomorrow southeast of the lakes weakening through the day with
the nearing surface high.
We will still remain under the upper level low tomorrow and its
influences. This will likely mean any clearing to the skies tomorrow
morning will likely end with clouds filling the sky tomorrow
morning and afternoon.
Lows tonight will drop back into the teens to mid 20s...a solid 10
degrees below normal. Highs tomorrow will be even further below
normal...some 15 to 20 degrees. Highs will only be around the
freezing mark.
&&
.SHORT TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
Thursday evening cold westerly flow may support a few scattered
light snow showers east of Lake Ontario across the Tug Hill region.
These will end overnight as warm advection begins, and inversion
heights lower.
Our attention then turns to the next synoptic system, as a mid level
trough and associated surface low move across northwest Ontario
province. Downstream of this main system, a wave of low pressure
will move from Ohio to the Southern Tier of New York late Thursday
night and Friday morning. Increasing warm advection and isentropic
upglide ahead of this system combined with DPVA will produce a
period of large scale ascent. The increasing forcing will support an
area of snow spreading into the western Southern Tier after
midnight, then spreading across the rest of Western NY before
daybreak, reaching the eastern Lake Ontario region Friday morning.
The steadier precip will then taper off from west to east during the
day Friday as the wave of low pressure moves east. The precip will
gradually mix with and change to rain on Friday in many areas as the
boundary layer warms with deeper mixing and diurnal warming as the
system moves through. Expect an inch or so of accumulation late
Thursday night and Friday morning in most areas, with up to 2 inches
possible on the hills south of Buffalo and Rochester.
It will turn quite windy later Friday afternoon and evening in the
wake of this system, with a few gusts of around 40 mph possible
across Western NY and near the lakeshores.
Another weak mid level wave and cold front will cross the area later
Friday and Friday evening, supporting a few more rain and wet snow
showers. What remains of the precip will transition to all snow
overnight as colder air surface and aloft moves back into the
region, but any accumulation will be minimal. The cold front will
exit the area Saturday morning, with any associated snow showers
coming to an end. Cold northwest flow may produce a few more snow
showers, especially in the afternoon with diurnal instability and
some increase in boundary layer moisture.
Temperatures will remain well below average, with highs on Friday in
the lower 40s in most areas, and upper 30s on the hills. Highs
Saturday will be even colder, with highs in the mid 30s at lower
elevations and around 30 on the hills. Lows Thursday night and
Friday night will be in the 20s.
&&
.LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
Below normal temperatures will continue through most of next week as
a deep longwave trough continues to dominate the eastern half of
North America.
Saturday night through Sunday a deep trough will swing east across
Quebec, maintaining cold northwest flow across our region. This will
support scattered snow showers at times, from lake effect Saturday
night and early Sunday morning, transitioning to diurnal snow
showers Sunday afternoon. Temperatures will remain well below
average, with lows in the 20s Saturday night, and highs in the 30s
Sunday.
By early next week some timing differences begin to show in model
guidance, with the GFS almost a full day faster than the ECMWF with
the next system. Both models show a similar evolution however, with
low pressure moving out of the Upper Midwest and into the Great
Lakes, eventually yielding to secondary cyclogenesis off the
southern New England coast. Warm advection ahead of this system will
spread increasing chances of precipitation into our region Monday or
Monday night. Tuesday and Tuesday night chances for precipitation
will continue as the base of the mid level trough and wrap around
moisture crosses the area. Precipitation type will likely be snow
much of the time, with some rain possibly mixing in across lower
elevations during the daytime. A few lake effect snow showers may
continue southeast of the lakes Wednesday in the wake of this
system. Temperatures will remain well below normal through the
middle of next week.
&&
.AVIATION /22Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
Strong gusty winds will diminish through this evening, with a
significant decrease in winds expected around sunset.
Otherwise, expect mainly VFR conditions outside of snow showers
and squalls which may briefly result in much lower conditions.
These will be most widespread east and southeast of the lakes
which will mainly impact JHW. Winds will continue to diminishing
and snow showers will taper off after 03Z tonight.
Tomorrow a few scattered lake effect snow showers will fall
southeast of the lakes, with any impacts most likely to KJHW,
and possibly KROC. With high pressure building towards the
region winds will be much weaker than today.
Outlook...
Friday night...MVFR with a chance of rain and snow showers.
Saturday...VFR, except local IFR in lake effect snow showers
southeast of the lakes.
Sunday...mainly VFR.
Monday...MVFR/VFR with a chance rain and snow.
&&
.MARINE...
Gale force winds will continue through the evening hours on the
lakes. As a storm system over southern Canada pushes farther
northeastward, and surface high pressure over the Central Plains
pushes eastward the surface pressure gradient will relax with
winds diminishing and later waves heights. Wave heights will
likely not subside to under Small craft Advisory levels until
Thursday evening southeast of Lake Ontario.
Another strong low will pass just north of our region Friday, and
may bring another round of gales to the eastern Great Lakes.
&&
.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
Deepening low pressure tracking just to the northwest of the
area today will bring a period of strong westerly winds to Lake
Ontario, which will result in an elevated risk of lake shore
flooding and erosion along the Lake Ontario shoreline from Wayne
to Jefferson counties. For this reason, a Lakeshore Flood
Warning remains in effect for these areas.
Levels on Lake Erie will continue to drop as winds diminish.
However, high levels did result in some ice flowing down the
Niagara River. As a result, there is a risk of ice jam flooding
until this ice filters down the river. The coastal flood warning
along Lake Erie was allowed to expire.

...SNOW SQUALLS WILL AFFECT SOUTHERN LEWIS...CAYUGA AND OSWEGO
COUNTIES...
Snow squalls will result in bursts of heavy snow which will lower
visibility to below a quarter mile at times across portions of
Oswego, Southern Lewis, and Northern Cayuga counties. In addition,
winds gusting to 60 mph will result in areas of blowing snow.
Although accumulation will generally be an inch or less, this still
will result in rapidly changing visibility and slippery roadways
through this evening. Motorists should exercise caution.
This includes Interstate 81 between exits 32 and 36.
