That’s a nice Cliff notes version of what causes lake effect.

It cracks me up that the article is about record high snowfall, record LOW temperatures and they somehow managed to squeeze "Fever" into the headline. Then, at the end of the article, you find out that the lakes are a bit warmer than usual leading to heavy lake-effect snow. But
FEVER!

Averaged decadally, a 30 year period is the basis on which climatic standards are established. Twenty-five years of data is a lot of information.

The only solution is that all government offices around the world need to turn off the electricity to all government offices—forever!

COP26 (con26!) results are in. If only 399 jets had flown in instead of 400 this would never have happened.

I’m 90 minutes south of gaylord, crowflight.
Got some wet flakes Tuesday afternoon.
Not unexpected...it is quite normal/common this time of year.
And...really...Gaylord is not subject to “lake effect snows” being some 120+ miles from Lake Michigan.
Fear pron.

Yet we lived in Syracuse for
The Blizzard of 1966. On January 30, 1966, it began snowing. And when it was over, more than 42 inches fell on Syracuse. Many in Syracuse and Central New York buried under several feet of snow.
Central NY lake effect snow has always been a thing.
I remember it well because I was 14 and Dad made me shovel all of it. We had to trudge through feet of snow down to the mailbox at the outskirts of our subdivision to retrieve smokes that a friend left for Mom & Dad.

Less than 30 inches and you are required to go to work and school. And wear a mask.

Grew up in the UP during the 60’s.
We always had snow that stuck to the ground before my birthday which was the end of October.
Might only last a day or two. Real snow that stayed came before Thanksgiving.

On rare occasion, I’ve seen lake effect reach here in NH.
You can see it on the radar.
For that matter, for me there’s something about the look of lake effect that identifies it. I can’t put my finger on what it quite is that tells me, but when I see it and suspect, I check the radar to verify it.
I guess it comes from living in the snowbelt for decades.

Wait! Mowing, plowing and shoveling. Do you not have any raking in your neck of the woods? I have plenty I can share with you.
Actually, it’s almost done for the season. Come back next year if you need some good raking exercise.

Most people do not realize that when “climate scientists” talk about historic weather data they are not relying on the actual recording of data. Instead they use things like ice core samples and studying sediment layers. One theory is that certain isotopes occur in different rations depending on the temperature. They also look at things like pollen concentration, thickness of tree rings etc. The major problem with this is that it will only give a wide range of possible temps and only for that isolated area. The truth is that we only really have hard data going back a few decades and all scientific instruments are prone to error.

He made his ten year prediction in 2006 which expired in 2016, five years ago. I was counting from the date it expired.

Then there was that Superstorm of March 1993.
We lived in the snowbelt at the time, got nailed from the storm, and then the next day, as the storm pulled off the coast, got even more in addition in the form of lake effect.
