Feet of lake-effect snow to bury some areas downwind of the Great Lakes

 By Alex Sosnowski, AccuWeather senior meteorologist

Published Nov. 30, 2020 11:47 AM Updated Nov. 30, 2020 3:17 PM




An intense round of lake-effect snowfall is expected to follow a multi-faceted storm that was blasting portions of the Midwest and East on Monday. Snowfall will be measured in feet in the hardest-hit areas by the middle of the week, including areas that have been experiencing way less snow than normal so far this season. Forecasters warned that the wintry weather could cause dangerously low visibility and road closures.

Rather than be spread across the entire swath of the Great Lakes region, the core of lake-effect snowfall is expected to bury areas downwind of lakes Huron and Erie. A shorter duration of lake-effect snow is anticipated off Lake Michigan in northwestern Indiana and off Lake Ontario in northern New York state.

As just enough cold air will pour in on the backside of a departing storm and blow across open waters of the Great Lakes, forecasters expect areas from northeastern Ohio to northwestern Pennsylvania, western New York state and southern Ontario to be clobbered by heavy lake-effect snow into the middle of this week with narrow zones expected to pick up 12-18 inches (30-45 centimeters) of snow.

Where the bands of snow persist, a couple of feet (25 cm each) of snow will fall on top of the general snowfall from the storm that was still cranking up and just producing rain in many areas as of Monday midday.

"When it is all said and done, an AccuWeather StormMax™ of 36 inches of snow can be on the ground when combining snow from the general part of the storm and the lake-effect bands of snow and snow squalls that follow into midweek," AccuWeather Meteorologist Derek Witt said.

"The location of the heaviest area of snowfall will depend on the exact track that the storm takes and how long lake-effect snow bands can linger or repeat over any given spot," Witt said.

In many cases, the snow from the main part of the storm and lake effect may blend together.

The storm is predicted to unload wet snow that will partially melt on some roads and create slushy conditions, but the intense rate of snow during the squalls and lake-effect snow bands can quickly overwhelm warm road surfaces and cause the snow to pile up quickly.

Meteorologists warned motorists who plan to travel along stretches of Interstates 70, 76, 79, 80 and 90 in western Pennsylvania, as well as I-80 and 90 in northeastern Ohio and I-86 and i-90 in western New York to be prepared for rapidly deteriorating weather conditions. The snow could accumulate fast enough to shut down stretches of highway, creating extremely dangerous driving conditions from Monday night to Wednesday. A couple of snow squalls may extend as far to the east as the central counties of Pennsylvania and New York state.

Buffalo, New York, is likely to avoid the heaviest snow from the storm and the lake effect that follows, but cities farther southwest, such as Jamestown, New YorkErie, Pennsylvania; and Cleveland are expected to be in the thick of the snow with accumulations heavy enough to keep shovelers and road crews busy.

Snowfall has been pacing behind normal in the areas that are expected to bear the brunt of the lake-effect snowfall. Just over an inch of snow has fallen in Erie so far this season, which is only 13% of the normal 8.2 inches that falls from the start of autumn through Nov. 30. Cleveland has picked up only 0.2 of an inch of snow so far this season, a mere 5% of the normal snowfall through November.

A blast of lake-effect snow pounded the Buffalo, N.Y. area, for a third day that month piling more misery on a city already buried by an epic amount of snow. South Cheektowaga ended up with 65 inches of snow from the lake-effect event. (AP Photo/Mike Groll)

Beyond Wednesday, the storm is forecast to pivot far enough to the north to allow milder air to flow eastward from the Plains and Midwest. This should shut off the lake-effect snowfall and allow some of the snow to melt during Thursday and Friday.

Forecasters noted that even after the wintry weather ends areas of ice could develop during the nighttime and morning as temperatures will dip below freezing.
