| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | Heavy lake effect snow squalls began on the evening of the 3rd. Off Lake Erie, the band slowly drifted south over the Niagara Frontier and Western Southern Tier during the next two days. Total snowfall from the 48 hour event was fairly consistent across the region due to the slow southerly drift of the snowband. The entire region had over a foot of snow with slightly higher amounts over the northern and southern suburbs of Buffalo where the band stalled somewhat. In Buffalo, amounts ranged from 13" downtown to 17" north and 20" south. Other reports included 17" in Amherst and 23" in West Seneca. Off Lake Ontario, intense snowbands developed over the St. Lawrence Valley during the predawn Monday the 4th and dropped 6-10" before moving south. Totals in the area ranged from 12-18" over much of Jefferson and Oswego counties and 6-12" over Lewis County. |
