URGENT - WINTER WEATHER MESSAGE
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BUFFALO NY
648 PM EDT THU OCT 12 2006
...HEAVY WET SNOW TO CAUSE WIDESPREAD TREE DAMAGE AND BRING DOWN
POWER LINES TONIGHT...
.A WESTERLY FLOW OF UNSEASONABLY COLD AIR CIRCULATING AROUND A
VERY INTENSE STORM UP OVER LAKE SUPERIOR WILL CONTINUE TO POUR
INTO WESTERN NEW YORK TONIGHT. THIS COLD AIR CROSSING THE 60
DEGREE WATERS OF LAKE ERIE WILL CONTINUE TO PRODUCE BANDS OF
INTENSE LAKE EFFECT PRECIPITATION.
HEAVY WET SNOW WILL OCCASIONALLY MIX WITH SLEET THIS EVENING AND
TONIGHT. MOST OF THIS AREA COULD EASILY SEE 3 INCHES OF HEAVY WET
SNOW WITH ISOLATED AMOUNTS OF 6 INCHES OR MORE NOT OUT OF THE
QUESTION. THE MAIN IMPACT FROM THIS SNOWFALL WILL BE TO BRING DOWN
TREE LIMBS AND POWER LINES. AREA ROADS WILL BE SLUSHY...BUT THE
RELATIVE WARMTH OF THE GROUND WILL HELP TO KEEP ACCUMULATIONS DOWN
ON ROADWAYS.
HEAVY SNOW IN THE BUFFALO METRO AREA THIS EARLY IS
UNPRECEDENTED...AND UNIQUE CONDITIONS MUST EXIST. THERE STILL IS
SOME DOUBT AS TO THE SNOWFALL ACCUMULATION AS THE GROUND AND LAKE
ARE VERY WARM.
CONDITIONS SHOULD IMPROVE QUICKLY FRIDAY MORNING AS THE LAKE
EFFECT ACTIVITY MOVES EVEN FURTHER NORTH AND BECOMES MAINLY RAIN
ONCE AGAIN.

HEAVY SNOW IN NARROW BANDS TO CLEAR SKIES JUST A FEW MILES AWAY.
