Areas affected...portions of far western New York

Concerning...Heavy snow=20

Valid 202239Z - 210245Z

SUMMARY...Instances of heavy lake-effect snow should continue
through the evening, with 2 inch/hour snowfall rates possible,
especially over Erie County, New York.

DISCUSSION...Deep-layer flow (especially closer to the surface) has
become more aligned with the long axis of Lake Erie over the past
couple of hours given the passing of a weak surface trough. The long
fetch of appreciable low-level moisture off of the lake waters will
support lake effect snow into the evening hours. 6-7 C/km low-level
lapse rates (evident via 22Z mesoanalysis) will support continued
heavier snowfall (as was recently observed at the DKK ASOS), with
snowfall rates potentially approaching 2 inches/hour at times.
