I don't know how to post a link to NOAA for Lewis County, NY. but here's some of the verbage.

SNOWFALL WILL BEGIN AFTER MIDNIGHT SATURDAY NIGHT AND INTENSIFY BY
SUNDAY MORNING ACROSS THE REGION. DURING SUNDAY SNOW WILL
CONTINUE AND BECOME HEAVY AT TIMES WITH SNOWFALL RATES OF 2 INCHES
AN HOUR LIKELY. SUNDAY NIGHT SNOW WILL CONTINUE AND BY MONDAY
MORNING THE STORM TOTAL SNOWFALL FROM THIS EVENT COULD RANGE
BETWEEN 18 AND 30 INCHES.

I really hope that they are right sbout this one!!!....i would love a good 30" of snow that would make my year!

i've been watching all the weather channels this morning and it looks like unless we get a major warm up, were going to get dumped on!!!! happy birthday to me!

Better check those weather reports again before you start counting chickens fellas.

why? still looks good from what i've been reading. something we don't know?

The accumulation predictions are going down in a hurry.. In my area (Albany, NY) the prediction has gone from 12+ to 10, and now 3-6 inches...In the tug, it looks like they will be LUCKY to get 8, and the Sacandaga area will be lucky to get 6...

I don't know why I get my hopes up..All the hi-tech garbage the forecasters have makes them NO more accurate than they were 20 years ago..

HYPE HYPE HYPE, thats all this storm may turn out to be...

noaa and accuweather are still predicting up to 20" total on lowville and parish areas. snow fall predictions are very difficult to determine and probaby will never be completely accurate, especially lake effect situations.

It all depends on the location and strength of the secondary low when it develops off the coast and how much sleet/freezing rain mixes in. Warmer air is expected to mix in at midlevels.
I'm still hearing of the possibility of over a foot or more.
There is also a chance that a lake effect event will occur after the passage of the low.

Fathertucker= the brains of a dog

Guess we won't know for sure until it moves past us....but I am keeping my fingers crossed

We'll see...It'd be a good base to start the sledding season on the 19th.

I'll tell you how much after it happens is what the weather man should say.

Just need gas and Im riden sunday field hopping !!!!!!!

Let's wait and see clembob.

Your one of those guys I'd love to buy for what your worth and sell you for what you think your worth. Pennies on the millions.

mine went from 10-20 total now its about 1-2 feet by tomorrow...then we still have the lake effect on mon morning to worry about...this is a pic i took driving home tonight from the gf's house it was about 11pm on 12/15/07....

And you my friend........would be a peter puffer. Whad ya have for breakfast today? Gay mans special....a big plate of sausage I bet.

Wazzaaaa madder tuff gay having abd nihgt? Philly called and wanted there village idiot back foem OF.

don't gaff the thread with your banter you 2!!!

I'm in rochester and it's about 5am 16th and we are right in the middle of the split in the storm... so we only have about 5 inches now. But a good portion of the storm is still heading for us and it's moving about 10-15 miles an hour. So if it hits us going that slow then we could see another 1-12 by the end on the 16th and monday we WILL be getting some lake affect off the cold shot coming down from alberta. So I'm outta fingernails.... just biting stumps now until I get out of work and go play.

Bottom line.... 8 inches is enough for the 670

well considering we only got about 5-6" and it's been sleeting or doing nothing this am, i think i'll chalk one up to fathertucker. the storm's not over yet however. regardless, we have enough to ride on this am so no bitching here. ride safe everybody.

Not sure where you live in NY but you're just in a dry slot now. Tons of precip moving up from central Pa. You should get several hours of mod-heavy snow later this afternoon....which should almost double what you already have gotten and that would make the original forecast pretty much spot on.

Even if it stays as sleet and you did not get anymore accumulation......the 5 or 6 inches of dense snow that has fallen is much better than having 3 times that amount of lake effect fluff.
Enjoy your riding!

for sure. rode the other week in somewhat deep LE and it sucked. bottomed out, snow flying up over the hood so i couldn't see, etc. this stuff and what we had the last two days is great. i'm seeing snow snow mixed in with sleet now. i'm about 20 minutes sw of syracuse, finger lake area.

I was about to say the same thing. Fired up the snowblower this morning. Was all pissed because the weather man is an idiot. Then I come in for an hour, look out the window and cant see much other than the white gold falling form the sky. MAN I LOVE THIS WEATHER!!!

viper was right. we got nailed all day, probably about 15-18", and it's still coming down. put on about 75 miles. how sweet it is.

well.... I got out of work this morning and threw the topend back on and went out for a ride.... Sucked! fluff and wind blown fields, grass showing. The snow was crap and had a covering of about 2 inches of ice chips. I did about 15 miles and went home. Hardly worth being awake for 2 - 12 hr shifts without sleep between. I wish we had some more of the wet stuff that we got a week ago.

I'd say all in all we got about 8 inches of crappy fluff here in rochester. I'll wait until it starts thickening up before I go back out.

Maybe we will see another good storm before new years.

all together today we got about 8-12 inches of snow/sleet on top of our 8-10 last night so all in all we have a descent amount of snow...here is a pic of where i almost got stuck in the driveway coming home tonight..and i was the only one that broke a trail down 2 miles of snow ocvered roads...not fun when the snow is coming over the hood and cant see the telephone poles or anything else for that matter.

WE GOT 14" ON SINCLAIR RD AT THE CAMP FROM SAT NIGHT INTO THIS MORNING, PLUS HAD ABOUT 8" FROM LAST WEEK........

ICE IS ALITTLE THIN FOR ME YET

A little over a foot here in Lockport.Trails looking good,lets hope it sticks until the 19th!!!

we got about 15-18" here in cicero. rode the central square area yesterday. they got about 12" on top of what they already had, and it snowed all night. it's a great start to the season!

A foot of snow in Barneveld

sounds like you got more lake effect than the nor'easter stuff, which was wet and heavy. the stuff we got overnight up until about 10:00 this morning was lake effect and probably accounted for the top 6" of the 24" piles we had in some areas. it's going to be some good riding in our area for awhile.
