    Areas affected...portions of far western New York

    Concerning...Heavy snow=20

    Valid 210416Z - 210815Z

    SUMMARY...Heavy lake-effect snow should continue into the early
    morning hours, with 3 inch/hour intermittent snowfall rates likely.

    DISCUSSION...The lake-effect snow-band has taken a more
    southwest-to-northeast orientation over the past hour or so, with
    heavy snow recently reported as far south as the Dunkirk Airport.
    04Z mesoanalysis shows increased boundary-layer convergence and
    moistening along a northern Chautaugua to Erie County line, which
    will support continued heavy snowfall rates within the main band.
    Snowfall accumulations over very short time periods via reports
    suggest that near 3 inch/hour snowfall rates may be occurring with
    this snow band. With the 04Z mesoanalysis showing 7.5 C/km 0-3 km
    lapse rates present over water (where a long moisture fetch is in
    place), 2-3 inch/hour snowfall rates may continue into the early
    morning hours, as also suggested by latest high-resolution guidance
    consensus.
