The Frankish Reich Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 On 11/14/2022 at 3:37 PM, Big Turk said: Ehh...Northtowns and into Niagara County have the best of it...they only get 40-60 inches on average. Buffalo itself gets almost 100 inches and is the snowiest largish city in the US. Have also won the National Golden SnowGlobe 2 of the last 3 years for most snowfall which includes all cities over 100K population(including Alaska). Still hold the record for most snowfall in a season of any city with over 100K population as well with 199.2 inches. But yes, in general the Southtowns gets more snow. However, the snow isn't the worst of it. the worst are the endless cloudy days where you may not see the sun for 2+ weeks at a time and routinely go 7-10 days without seeing it. That and the wind which is brutal, especially as you get closer to the lake...they have lines strung up downtown for people to hold onto when crossing the street for a reason... This Buffalo you speak of sounds like a lovely place. I really must plan a vacation there. Maybe next November. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Turk Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 Man this is wild already...started around 7:30ish and already have 6 inches at the airport before 10pm...it's snowing sideways right now very angrily. Interested to see what it looks like when I wake up tomorrow morning. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rusty shackleford Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 It’s starting to shape up to what they said it could be. I’m in Hamburg. Thought this one might hit the north towns harder (and maybe it is) but the last 5 hours we’ve been getting hammered in the south towns.

It stopped while I was in there and hasn't snowed since. That was last night at 11. So far the snow has been a major disappointment in the city of buffalo 1 hour ago, rusty shackleford said: It’s starting to shape up to what they said it could be. I’m in Hamburg.

Well in that case that is more on NBC than weather forecasters since other maps show to peaks - Buffalo and Watertown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snow models had the heaviest north of Buffalo I thought. Maybe it’s still going to move up at some point. Hopefully it does for Southtown’s sake.

Was supposed to but it appears the heaviest will be in South Buffalo through Lancaster. Northtowns will still get a good amount tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
