TMAWhat forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this blizzard warning 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 blizzard warning went out at Jan 30, 10:22 AM EST, 1 hour 50 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jan 30, 10:22 AM EST, 1 hour 50 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Buffalo NY
1022 AM EST Wed Jan 30 2019
.SYNOPSIS...
Frigid arctic air will pour across our forecast area today and
Thursday...and this will not only help to generate significant lake
effect snow east and northeast of the lakes...but will support
dangerously low wind chill values THROUGHOUT the region. High
pressure passing across the Mid Atlantic region late in the week
will then bring an end to the glacial weather...as day to day
temperatures will steadily climb during the upcoming weekend into
early next week.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
...Significant Lake Snows and Dangerously Low Wind Chill Values...
An arctic cold front will quickly sweep across our forecast area
early this morning with a reinforcing shot of frigid air in its
wake. While the core of the polar airmass will be over the Mid
Western states this morning...the deep cyclonic flow over the Great
Lakes region will circulate the bitter cold across Ohio into our
region for the afternoon and tonight. As a result...todays max
temperatures will occur during the first part of the morning with
falling mercury readings throughout the remainder of the day. In
fact...some parts of the Southern Tier may not climb above zero.
Before we get into the details about temperatures and the brutal
wind chill values...lets address the potentially paralyzing lake
snows.
As of 15z...the arctic cold front has moved east of Rochester
and Wellsville, NY. West winds have started to gust to 35 mph
at Niagara Falls Airport and will do soon at Buffalo Airport.
The front will continue to move east this morning with strong
winds spreading eastward through the morning hours. The front
has caused the lake band off Lake Erie to become disorganized
and move very slowly southward this morning. The band is
consolidating across the Southtowns, from Silver Creek to Elma
and East Aurora with rates of 1 to 2 inches per hour. The band
is still fairly wide and the Northtowns and city of Buffalo are
still experiencing heavy snow at times. Overall the trend
continues to show the band slowly moving southward into the
afternoon hours. Snowfall rates of one to two inches an hour
will accompany the band...with rates of 3 inches an hour
possible. If this were a November or December band...rates could
even be higher due to stronger convergence over an even warmer
lake. While the convective depth will be over 10k feet by
midday... the extent of the frigid air will actually limit snow
accumulations. Rather than having large dendrites like the band
had overnight...the shrinking dendritic growth zone will lead to
more plates and columns...which are more dense and accumulate
at a somewhat slower rate. Nevertheless...daytime snow
accumulations will approach a foot near the Buffalo metro area
and points just south and east. The new snow will combine with
wind gusts to 40 mph so that significant blowing and drifting
will be likely. In other words...near blizzard conditions can be
expected at times.
As is usually the case...the whole scenario will be delayed by a few
hours on Lake Ontario. The environment at 12z include a convective
depth of about 8k ft...but as the frigid air deepens behind the yet
to pass arctic front for that region...the cap is forecast to rise
to more than 12k ft. Again...this may sound impressive for lake
snows at this time of year...but the arctic air will push the
dendritic growth zone to under a thousand feet. This will promote
more plates and columns...a small consolation given that multiple
feet of snow will still be likely.
The lake snows off Lake Ontario will initially be aimed at the
Thousand Islands region as a 220 flow will be in place. Once the
arctic front has passed that area (14z)...the flow will veer to
around 240. This will help to focus an more organized band over the
Watertown or points just south and east...where it may persist for
much of the day. Snowfall rates of 1 to 2 inches an hour will be
common with up to 3 inch rates possible.
Tonight...well defined plumes of moderate to heavy lake snow will
still be found east of both lakes. The flow is expected to veer to
250-260...so the bands are forecast to push just south of both the
Buffalo and Watertown metro areas into the more typical lake effect
snowbelts. Snowfall rates of 1-2 inches an hour will be common with
up to 3 inch rates possible for areas near the Tug Hill. Nighttime
snowfall amounts will be in the range of 6 to 8 inches in the heart
of the Lake Erie band over southern Erie county to about a foot on
in the area between Watertown and the Tug Hill.
Our other main concern is the intense cold that will be experienced.
As mentioned...temperatures today will be at their highest during
the morning with highs ranging from around zero across much of the
Southern Tier to about 10 near the Lake Ontario lake shore. As we
push through the late morning and afternoon though...the mercury
fall even further. This will be accompanied by wind gusts of 35 to
40 mph that will generate wind chill values of 15 to 30 BELOW.
Tonight...the arctic air will allow temperatures to fall to between
5 and 15 below zero with wind chill values bottoming out to between
25 and 35 below.
&&
.SHORT TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
We will remain in moist cyclonic flow aloft Thursday, with the
center of the upper level low over southern Quebec. This position of
the upper level closed low will favor lake effect snow to fall due
east of the lakes. At the surface, high pressure will advance across
the Ohio Valley and towards the Virginias. As the surface high
pressure slides by to our south, the pressure gradient will increase
some which will increase the wind gusts through the day, but also
support increased convergence within a westerly flow across Lake
Ontario. Deeper moisture rotation around the low pressure system to
our northeast will cross Lake Ontario. The deeper moisture within
increased convergence over Lake Ontario, combined with still very
favorable lake effect snow parameters will promote additional feet
of snow to fall east of Lake Ontario Thursday and Thursday night.
The west flow will center the band of snow Thursday upon the Tug
Hill region, and then as the upper level low lifts northeastward a
subtle shift in winds at the surface to WNW will bring the snowband
southward some Thursday night, with snow pushing deeper across
Oswego County and towards southern Lewis and the southern Tug Hill.
Additional snow Thursday and Thursday night within the heart of the
snowband will near 2.0 to 2.5 feet.
Given the impressive omega field that will form within the wind
convergence over Lake Ontario a heavy band of snow, with snowfall
rates of at least 3 inches per hour are expected. The one thing
holding back on higher snowfall rates will be the near surface snow
dendritic growth zone...which will likely promote a finer snowflake.
Westerly flow over Lake Erie, combined with a drier profile, and a
lake that is increasing with ice coverage will make for not as
impressive snowfall totals as Lake Ontario. Snowfall Thursday of 6
to 8 inches will be focused upon the northern Chautauqua shoreline,
Southern Erie and towards western Wyoming County. As the surface
high slides by our south, it will ridge northward towards Lake Erie,
briefly backing winds such as to return a 240 flow over Lake Erie
and bring the snowband back up towards the City of Buffalo and the
airport late in the day. This northward movement should be
temporary, with the band of snow dipping back towards the southtowns
by Thursday evening. The surface high pressure will also bring drier
air northward over Lake Erie to further weaken the snowband. A
lighter wind field Thursday night will draw the snowband closer to
the Lake Erie shoreline Thursday night, where it will taper down to
flurries and scattered light snow showers by the end of the night.
Additional snow Thursday night will still be several
inches...possibly 4-5 across the Boston Hills.
Friday the core of the cold air aloft will push eastward, which will
weaken lake effect snow...now primarily to the east of Lake Ontario.
The falling inversion heights will make for lighter lake effect
snow, though the snowflake size may become bigger owing to a deeper
snow dendritic growth zone returning. A compact shortwave will bring
a storm system across the Midwest and towards the Virginias Friday.
This system may brush by our southern tier, but largely will miss us
to the south. Friday night the airmass will be dry enough to promote
a mainly dry night, with perhaps just a few snow flurries or light
snow showers early near the eastern Lake Ontario shoreline.
In addition to snow, the cold temperatures and still gusty wind will
bring the impact of wind chills during the day Thursday. The slight
uptick in winds Thursday will promote wind chill values still -25 to
-30F across the region. By Thursday night winds will be weaker and
our airmass not as cold such that the still cold wind chills will
likely fall into advisory range.
Highs Thursday in the single digits for most will become mid teens
Friday as the core of the cold air is now to our east, and a
moderating trend commences.
&&
.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
A mid level ridge will build into the region over the weekend, and
sharpen on Monday ahead of an area of low pressure approaching from
the midwest. Warm advection starts to ramp up, as 850 mb
temperatures climb to near +2C toward Sunday afternoon. Temperatures
for Saturday will be a bit below normal, but temperatures will be
above normal Sunday through Tuesday. Chances for precipitation will
be on the increase as the warm front will push through the region
Sunday and Monday. The surface low will then track across or to the
north of our region, with a trough and cold front likely to bring
some rain showers Monday night. Colder air will build in behind the
system late Tuesday, with some rain or snow showers possible.
Hydrologic impacts could become a concern with the upcoming warm up
and potential for rain. This period will need to be monitored.
&&
.AVIATION /15Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
LES band ongoing northeast of Lake Erie impacting KBUF airfield this
morning with heavy snow resulting in VLIFR conditons which is
expected to continue into this afternoon. The other area of concern
will be the KROC airfield where reduced VSBYS/CIGS will be possible
as the LES band will extend northeast into Monroe County. The snow
and blowing snow will produce a mixture of MVFR/IFR conditions to
the KROC airfield today at times.
Off lake Ontario, several disorganized bands of lake snow in the
Thousand Islands region will gradually consolidate in the vicinity
of KART. Conditions will deteriorate at KART to LIFR as heavy snow
will become established near midday and continue into this
afternoon.
Elsewhere, a mixture of VFR/MVFR conditions will be possible at the
remaining sites today, although the vast majority of the time will
be VFR.
Additionally, strong southwest winds will gust to 35 to 40 kts for
most of the sites will begin today through tonight. These winds will
produce blowing snow and may bring back reduced VSBYS to airfields
at times that have received snow the past 24 hours.
Heavy snow near KBUF and KART this evening is forecast to push
far enough south overnight to allow for improving conditions at
both sites. VFR weather will be found elsewhere.
Outlook...
Thursday through Friday...Areas of IFR with lake effect snow
and blowing snow east and northeast of Lakes Erie and
Ontario...diminishing from west to east later Thursday night and
Friday.
Saturday...A chance of snow showers/MVFR southeast of Lake
Ontario otherwise VFR.
Sunday...VFR/MVFR with a chance of rain and snow showers.
&&
.MARINE...
An areas of low pressure will deepen and slowly lift northeastward
across Quebec Province through Thursday. This will bring an extended
period of high end Small Craft Advisory to Gale Force conditions to
both Lakes Erie and Ontario. The strongest winds (Gales) will be
likely Wednesday afternoon and Wednesday night, with heavy freezing
spray also developing given the very cold temperatures.
&&
.HYDROLOGY...
A seiche on Lake Erie last night created a temporary ice jam between
the Power Authority Intake and Cayuga Island. While the jam has
cleared...the potential for additional seiches to occur today
and tonight is enough to warrant a flash flood watch for parts
of northern Erie county and southwestern Niagara County through
1030 pm. Areas susceptible to ice jam flooding will include
Grand Island, Cayuga Island in Niagara Falls, and the river
shoreline between North Tonawanda and Niagara Falls.
&&
