Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Buffalo NY
202 PM EST Thu Mar 9 2023
.SYNOPSIS...
A storm system moving out of the Ohio valley will bring at least
several inches of accumulating snow to much of the region Friday and
Friday night. Leftover snow showers will taper off on Saturday, then
mixed precipitation will move into the region Sunday afternoon
through Monday.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
A wealth of moisture trapped beneath a monster 7 deg c inversion
based near 925mb will maintain mainly cloudy skies across parts of
the Finger Lakes and Eastern Lake Ontario region for the remainder
of the afternoon. The exception to this will be where a downsloping
northerly flow will offer some thinning of the clouds near the
southern slopes of the Tug.
Meanwhile over the far western counties...enough subsidence will be
provided form a staunch 1048mb sfc high over Manitoba and associated
mid level ridge to promote an erosion of the morning cloud cover.
The result should be a partly to mostly sunny...albeit it a chilly...
afternoon.
The large sfc high nosing south from central Canada will temporarily
lose its grip on our region late tonight into the start of the
upcoming weekend...as a robust shortwave will support a
consolidating storm system that will approach from the Ohio valley.
While fair weather should persist tonight...high and eventually mid
level clouds will thicken over the western counties ahead of the
aforementioned storm system.
A potent mid level closed low will move from near central Lake
Michigan Friday morning to near the NY/PA border Friday evening
before exiting off the New Jersey shore early Saturday morning. An
associated surface low will deepen over the Ohio Valley early Friday
before moving off the east coast Friday evening, with the initial
low weakening and yielding to secondary triple point cyclogenesis
well offshore of the Mid Atlantic late Friday night.
Large scale ascent will overspread the area from west to east Friday
with strong DPVA and diffluent upper level flow ahead of the closed
low. A tightening temp gradient will support a band of H925-70
frontogenesis and deformation north of the surface low track. The
quality forcing and moisture will support widespread snow developing
from west to east across most of the area Friday, developing during
the morning and midday hours in Western NY, and in the afternoon
east of the Genesee Valley. Forecast thermal profiles suggest
precipitation type will be all snow areawide.
Friday night...the stronger large scale forcing will move east of
the area, with abundant wrap around moisture and increasing
northerly flow of modestly colder air supporting a transition to
wrap around snow, which will be enhanced by lake effect and upslope
processes. The widespread snow will taper off late Friday night,
with lingering light lake effect snow showers south of the lakes
lasting through Saturday morning.
Accumulations will be modulated not only by the track of higher QPF,
but also by elevation given the marginal temperatures during the day
Friday. Lower elevations will be at or just above freezing during
the daylight hours, with below freezing temperatures limited to the
higher terrain. The high March sun angle will also hold down
accumulations during the daylight hours, especially on paved
surfaces. Accumulations and snow:water ratios will become more
efficient after about 5PM Friday as the sun angle approaches sunset
and surface/pavement temperatures begin to drop.
Expect TOTAL accumulations from Friday through Saturday morning of 5-
8" across the higher terrain of the Southern Tier, Boston Hills, and
ridges of Wyoming County. Given the timing of the system and
location of the higher accumulations, do not feel that the impact
will be great enough to warrant an upgrade to a warning. Will thus
maintain the higher end advisory for the Southern Tier...including
Wyoming and southern Erie counties. Farther north, somewhat lower
QPF and more marginal temperatures initially should hold the Niagara
Frontier and lower Genesee Valley/western Finger Lakes in the 3-5"
range including Buffalo and Rochester. The Bristol Hills may see
local 4-6" amounts. The North Country will miss most of this event
with an inch or less across the southern portions of the eastern
Lake Ontario region, and mainly dry near the Saint Lawrence.
&&
.SHORT TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
An upper level low over New Jersey Saturday morning will move east
and off the east coast through the weekend. Northwest flow will
persist Saturday with increasing heights across the eastern Great
Lakes region. Temperatures at 850mb will be cold enough for lake
effect snow showers to continue south and southeast of the Lakes
Saturday morning. Snow showers will taper off through the day as
inversion heights lower and moisture decreases across the region.
Minor snow accumulations of 1-2 inches are possible across the
Chautauqua Ridge and western Finger Lakes region. Chilly Saturday
with high temperatures reaching the upper 20s across the higher
terrain to the low 30s elsewhere.
Surface high pressure will move into the eastern Great Lakes region
Saturday night. An upper level ridge will also be overhead and dry
conditons are expected. Low temperatures will fall to the teens to
low 20s across the region.
Dry and quiet weather expected the first half of Sunday, as the
upper level ridge moves east of the eastern Great Lakes region. A
shortwave trough will approach the region from the Ohio Valley and
rain and snow showers will enter the western Southern Tier Sunday
afternoon. Surface temperatures will likely be in the mid to upper
30s and limited snow accumulation expected through Sunday. Dry
weather expected from the western Finger Lakes to the North Country
through Sunday. The pattern becomes more complex from the Great
Lakes region to the southeastern US Sunday night through Monday. A
northern stream trough will deepen across the Great Lakes region
while surface low pressure develops across the Lower Lakes. This
weak area of low pressure will move into the eastern Great Lakes
region and rain and snow showers are likely. Lift will increase on
the north and eastern side of the low by Monday with rain and snow
showers intensity increasing across the North Country. As the low
pulls away to the northeast, cold air advection will move into the
region and lake enhanced snow showers are likely across western NY.
Minor accumulations are possible through Monday. Expect temperatures
to reach the mid to upper 30s Monday.
&&
.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
Monday night the northern stream trough will phase with a southern
stream shortwave trough, which will deepen the strengthening surface
low along the southern New England shoreline. This being said, there
continues to be differences within the model guidance runs regarding
the timing and development of the upper level phasing and therefore
resulting in uncertainty in the forecast. Despite this, cold air
will wrap in across the area under northwest flow and support an all
snow forecast. However as mentioned previously the placement of the
nor'easter will greatly dictate how impactful this system is. A
westward track will result in the precipitation shield lying across
the eastern half of the forecast area, whereas an eastward track
will support some lake enhancement under the north-northwest flow
while the main precipitation shield is east of the area.
Cold northerly flow will continue Wednesday, this combined with
lingering moisture will support lake and upslope enhanced snow
showers.
Upper level ridging and surface high pressure will advance east and
southeast across the Great Lakes and Ohio Valley Wednesday night
into Thursday.
Otherwise temperatures will remain below normal throughout much of
the start of the work week. Temperatures will become near normal by
Thursday.
Below normal temperatures will continue through the middle of next
week, before a modest warming trend begins late in the week.

.AVIATION /19Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
MVFR CIGS have scattered out significantly across areas west of the
Genesee Valley/western Finger Lakes, with just some residual FEW/SCT
lower decks leaving behind VFR flight conditions over these areas.
The western edge of the MVFR CIGS should erode a bit more east to
around the Finger Lakes by mid to late afternoon with KROC possibly
seeing a period of VFR conditions from around mid afternoon through
mid evening. Otherwise solid MVFR will likely persist from the
Finger Lakes east/northeast through the remainder of the day, with
IFR CIGS across the higher terrain east of Lake Ontario.
MVFR/higher terrain IFR CIGS from the Finger Lakes eastward will
remain in place tonight, while western NY sees MVFR/higher terrain
IFR CIGS redevelop tonight as low level moisture begins to pool
beneath a low level inversion ahead of a storm system approaching
from the west. Otherwise, expect an increase in mid and upper level
decks through the overnight as well.
Widespread MVFR/higher terrain IFR CIGS to start Friday morning will
only slowly further deteriorate through the day with widespread IFR
CIGS developing across all areas south of Lake Ontario Friday
afternoon. Otherwise, widespread light to moderate snow will develop
from southwest to northeast across areas south of Lake Ontario from
late Friday morning through the afternoon. Expect IFR VSBYs once the
steadier snow arrives. In addition, northeasterly winds will
strengthen some across far western NY late Friday morning into the
afternoon with gusts in the 25-30 knot range.
Outlook...
Friday afternoon/Friday night...MVFR/IFR with snow.
Saturday...IFR/MVFR in diminishing light snow.
Sunday...Mainly VFR.
Monday...MVFR with mixed precipitation.
Tuesday...IFR/MVFR with snow showers likely.
&&
.MARINE...
A light northerly flow on the Lakes today as strong surface high
pressure noses southward from Canada.
Winds will become easterly Thursday night ahead of a warm front and
surface low pressure. These winds on the west end of Lake Ontario
will approach high end SCA thresholds late Thursday night and
possibly reach northeast gale force gusts Friday everywhere on Lake
Ontario. Closer to the surface low the winds on Lake Erie Friday
will be slightly weaker.
