Then what’s up with the Jason Garret interview…you blue balled me man!!!

lol he’s part of the SNF studio crew… and fills in for Collinsworth occasionally (like on Thursday during the MIA-GB match)

No, everything is suppose to tapper off by game time and all the heavy stuff is happening tonight.  They will get it cleaned up by tomorrow night.

 

Barely a dusting right now at highmark.

 

 

Nice

This is fake news. I read it up

thread that the lake effect snow band never moves and is locked in one place. Otherwise: politics. 

Who said that?  The bands definitely meander in all cases (less that 5 degrees) but large accumulations generally occur with little movement.  The longer the band sits in one spot the more snow they get.  Large shifts in the gradient flow associated with short wave troughs (lol) like @Big Turk would severely inhibit snow development.   Lake effect is associated with cold air on the front side of a high moving across the Great Lakes.  Lake enhanced is when a trough or front moves through the area and destabilizes as it moves over warmer waters and dumps snow over the region.  Buffalo is south of a large low pressure system which is causing west-south west winds, the same orientation as Lake Erie to orchard park and Lake Ontario to water town.  Before talking smack about something you know nothing about, in an attempt to get a few chuckles at some else’s expense, maybe educate yourself first.

I knew nothing about this. Thanks for posting. I feel so bad for them.

Heaviest snow is supposed to fall overnight tonight and early morning tomorrow...and yikes, they just upped the amounts to 16-22" overnight.

 

Yep, take a look at Tuesday.  Good potential for another big snow event.  High presses up into the Ohio River Valley creating that SW gradient flow across Erie.  Tis the season.

I'm guessing these meteorologists who wrote this article published in the American Meteorological Society Journal based on a study of nearly 700 lake effect events don't know what they are talking about either?

 

Do better.

 

"The interaction of short-wave troughs with lake-effect snow can further complicate forecasting as each trough has the ability to change the intensity and location of preexisting lake-effect snowbands."

The internet was the death of actually having to know what the F you are talking about. It's just about who is loudest now.

Yes and apparently this time potentially favoring the Buffalo Metro area and Eastern suburbs based on initial discussion. 😐

I'm pretty sure I heard Garret compare Tua to Magic Johnson on Thanksgiving.  I'm good with Collinsworth.  Lol.

8.5 inches is a little more than a dusting.

Lake Michigan featured the highest number of concurrent events, and Lake Erie featured the fewest. It is evident that short-wave troughs are a ubiquitous feature near the Great Lakes during the cold season and have the potential to impart substantial impacts on lake-effect snowbands.  Figured I’d post the entirety of the paragraph not the cherry picked section you posted.  


This article is referencing upper-tropospheric short waves which would deepen or fill the long wave pattern (jet stream).  The jet dictates the path Highs and Lows take which would impact fetch at the surface.  This is much different than short waves in the lower portions of the atmosphere which decrease stability over the region, even more so as they move across warm waters and create large snow events (I.e. lake enhanced snow).

 

What’s is your forecasting experience?

Let’s stop arguing about the weather. I don’t want anyone getting pepper sprayed…. We’re not Michigan Wolverines let’s be better 😝

 

I would agree that this is not the thread for it.
