Process Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 (edited) 1-2 feet of lake effect snow. Get your shovels ready. Edit: Based on some comments from others below, looks like this could end up being a monster storm.

BillsPride12 Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 (edited) Just great, fantastic! As if there isn't enough Misery in Western New York right now. Edited November 14, 2022 by BillsPride12 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Turk Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 (edited) I promise you we will be getting more than that. "Snowvember" started out as 12-18" forecast and ended with over 7 feet in some places. A watch issued this early in the week is Bad News Bears and whenever you hear "significant", "long duration event" and "multiple periods of heavy snow" all being bandied about we are about to be f**ked. Ironically November has huge potential for big snow events because the lake is relatively warmer and when colder air blows over it, it tends to pick up more moisture.

Steptide Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 (edited) Just what the bills need, a game where throwing is difficult and they need a good run game 🙄 Edited November 14, 2022 by Steptide 2 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was wild. In Amherst we got less than an inch of snow if I remember correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awwufelloff Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 Yea it looks like this could be a very big storm for Metro Buffalo and surrounding suburbs. Some of the models are spitting out 4-5" of QPF in the form of snow. Most Lake effect snow ratios are 1:20. Has big dog potential and expect it to last into Sunday.

Yea it sounds like it's going to be bad. I wonder if there is potential for the game to have to be moved? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All 4 global models are showing 4-5 feet + of snow this weekend. Will be interesting to see if the higher res guidance agrees the next few days. A watch issued this early is very rare and something to be taken seriously. Lake Erie is at a record high temp due to the warm weather last few weeks.

Unless it is very windy, throwing the ball is highly effective as the WRs have the advantage of knowing where they are going and potential for big plays due to slipping and falling. We had quite a few snow games with the Kelly era Bills that were air raids. The wildcard playoff game against Miami for one.

Greg S Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 It looks like it will stop sometime Sunday. I wonder if the league would move it to MNF. They have done it before with the Jets - Bills from a few years ago. Gives the area a chance to clear the roads and for people to clear their driveways.

Didn't a game get moved to Detroit once due to significant snowfall that filled the stadium? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really wish I would have known I was in a "downlow" lake effect zone in the Eastern suburbs past Walden and Transit before I moved here...we tend to get buried when the wind shifts a little further North and the bands go over Lackawanna, just south of Downtown Buffalo, barely miss the airport and hit us with a direct bullseye on their way to Batavia.

GottaRun Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 Called my mechanic to get the winter tires put on my car, he said he's booked up for 3 weeks, I said I'm going to Buffalo on Sunday, he said come in tomorrow. 4 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup...against Sexy Rexy and the Jets and we destroyed them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
