Western New York to get blasted by first significant multiday lake-effect snowstorm of season
NY Post ^ | 11/27/2023 | Steven Yablonski

Lake-Effect Snow Warnings have been issued along the eastern shores of Lakes Erie and Ontario as the region braces for the first significant multiday lake-effect snowstorm of the season that will kick into high gear starting Monday.

The gloomy winter weather comes on the heels of a powerful storm that brought several inches of snow from the Plains states to the Great Lakes region and slowed travel over the Thanksgiving weekend, leaving at least three people dead as a result.

The FOX Forecast Center says cold air being pulled in from Canada will flow over the unfrozen and still relatively warm Great Lakes, resulting in lake-effect snow that will likely last until at least Wednesday.

That places parts of western New York and the Erie, Pennsylvania, area at risk of seeing well over a foot of snow.

Everyone knows that because of man made global warming, this is just plain impossible.

Do the Great Lakes normally freeze over in winter?

I wonder how many of the illegals there will regret their plan to jump the boarder

When they scream for shelter, etc., and when the blockhead mayor of NY is unable to meet the ‘crisis’...will the finger-pointing begin in ernest?

I wonder WHO will be first to scramble forward for media face time to express their humanitarian indignation ... AS IF they have been blindsided by the patently obvious!

Only Lake Erie because it's so shallow.

The other lakes are too deep and have too much heat reserve.

Once Lake Erie freezes over, it essentially shuts down the lake effect snow machine for western NY.

This time of year is particularly rough for lake snow events. The warmer the lake water, the more snow is produced so early season events like this can dump a LOT of heavy, wet snow and cause a lot of problems.

I wonder (not really) how their tents would hold up in this kind of weather. Or in NYC when the first good nor’easter blows through.

In December 1976 Lake Erie froze over the earliest on record. a lot of lite snow built up on the lake ice over the next month. Then around the middle end/of January 1977 a blizzard hit. We had 75 MPH winds. In Orchard Park we got over 3’ of snow. Schools were all closed for a week. I was 14 at the time. The drifts were huge because of the wind. It blew all that snow off the lake east towards Buffalo and the south suburbs.

They asked anyone with a snowmobile to report to their local fire stations. A couple of my buddies delivered food to elderly people. A lot of the roads were impassable. Even the main roads. I remember being on the back of a buddies snowmobile going down the main north/south road in town. We hit a bump. I looked back and we had driven right over a stuck car.

A couple months after that we had an ice storm in March. everyone lost power. Broken trees/limbs down everywhere. Again, another week of no school. I think we had to go to school until almost July that year to make up for all the snow/ice days.

In the early 70s I did an Army Reserve “summer camp” at what was then Camp Drum,NY. While there I got talking to a regular Army 1LT who had “wintered over” the previous winter.He told me that there were many parts of the camp where they didn’t bother to plow and said that buildings in those areas were completely buried in snow.

Lots of finger pointing ahead....as if no one anticipated this. I'm sure the liberals will waste no time making it out to be OUR fault! It will certainly be an indelible black eye for NY and for Biden.

Anyway...the illegals will for sure regret their ill considered decision to go north
