I did not expect to do this. Not on February 25th. Even in 2017 and 2018 that had record late February temperatures and all snow gone, but back then there was still hope heading into March. Especially in 2018. From March 2 through all of March that year, below to well below average temperatures and

OK folks… the clipper is looking moderate to strong in intensity. It is just hours away and is about to crush Upstate NY in a matter of hours with moderate to heavy snow and winds of 30-50 MPH. Since this looks like a good hit, and with increased flow and lake effect especially off of

Happy Valentine’s Day! Here we are in the dead of winter. Nearly every year we have snow on the ground and riding conditions over a good part of if not all of Upstate NY. Not this year. Even in the Tug Hill and Adirondacks, we are in “ultra die hard” mode. Any riding you can

Chances of riding now through 01.22.24 – Ride however you can, whenever you can, on what you can! Chances of riding 01.23.24 through 01.29.24 – It starts to get a little more “dicey” at this point in the game. Good morning! We have Winter Weather Advisories up for most of the Central and Eastern portions

Welcome to MLK Day! We still have lake effect snow going on that had started on Saturday. I had figured, especially on yesterday morning’s update that there would not be a complete falloff of these localized heavy snowfalls downwind of Lake Erie and downwind of Lake Ontario.

Good morning! If you are looking for change from my forecast graphics, you will not find it right now in the short term. After a look at the last few short term model runs, confidence is now high on this first Lake Effect event, which should last 36 hours. Perhaps a little more. The forecast
