Areas affected...Northern New York
Concerning...Heavy snow=20
Valid 182301Z - 190300Z
SUMMARY...Periodic snow squalls will be possible in the coming hours
as a cold front approaches northern New York.
DISCUSSION...Recent regional radar composites and surface
observations show a persistent snow band moving east across
southeast Ontario. This band is primarily being driven by ascent
along a cold front - likely through a shallow layer from the surface
to around 700 mb where lapse rates are on the order of 7 C/km based
on recent RAP mesoanalyses and forecast soundings. The snow
band/cold front is expected to continue to push east into upstate NY
within the next few hours. The combination of persistent frontal
ascent, steep low-level lapse rates, and 25-30 mph wind gusts (which
have been observed across southeast Ontario with the passage of the
band/front) suggests snow squall conditions will be possible. Snow
squall potential will likely be greatest along the eastern shores of
Lake Ontario with diminishing confidence in snow squall potential
with east/southeastern extent as low-level lapse rates begin to
diminish due to the onset of nocturnal cooling.
