RocCityRoller Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 (edited) I know this isn't considered Lake Effect snow, but crazy how the Lakes effect our weather. I am an hour east in the Rochester metro, 1 mile south of Lake Ontario and I might have no excuse for not cutting my lawn! It's bright and sunny and our inch or so of snow has melted!

Big Turk Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 (edited) Lake Effect Snow Warning for Southern Erie County expiring at 1AM tomorrow morning but now another Lake Effect Snow Watch has been issued for 7pm Saturday to 1pm Sunday for an additional 9+ inches. So there actually MIGHT have been snow during the game unlike some were saying... Edited November 18, 2022 by Big Turk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like you are not too far from Webster. I was living in Webster during the winter of 1998-1999. On a single day in the winter (don't remember when) we got 24" of snow in 24 hours (in Webster, downtown Rochester, Henrietta, Pittsford, the whole metro area). At that time, it was the single heaviest dropping of snow for a 24 hour period of time in history--for Rochester. I live in SE FL. If it makes everyone feel better, it is a cloudy day down here and a bit cold. Only about 74 degrees out, and I decided to skip my daily walk at the beach. We are all dealing with weather in our own ways. 😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Process Posted November 19, 2022 Author Share Posted November 19, 2022 On 11/14/2022 at 3:15 PM, Big Turk said: 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. You were spot on regarding severity from the beginning. So will this end up being worse than Snowvember? Or was that more snow just over a longer period of time?

I've seen it a few times...it's pretty wild when you go from clear roads and visibility to the "whoosh" of entering it and immediately go to snow covered roads and not able to see hardly at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saturday Night: Chance of precipitation is 80%. Sunday: Chance of precipitation is 50%. I don't get the melodrama. I'm not seeing forecasts of four feet of snow. It snows Thursday, you clean it up Friday. Then it snows Friday and you clean it up Saturday. You get half an inch on Saturday and you do clean up work. Each day taken on it's own is a very do-able street cleanup. Maybe we've grown soft, or maybe this is a media ratings driven crisis that we'll all be laughing about Sunday afternoon while we bemoan loss of our home game to Detroit. I got roughly 4 feet in my driveway... wanna come do a little clean up work for me tomorrow? Edited November 19, 2022 by Scott7975 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are 66 inches in OP and scheduled to get another 9+ tonight. Now do you get it? Lake effect forecasts are subject to change DURING the event. A slight change in wind direction or it staying over an area for longer than expected can lead to wildly different amounts of snow. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

November is actually the worst of it from a lake effect snow amount perspective because of the warm lake. temps and wind, another story 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
