This will NOT happen this time. This is a massive Nor’Easter that is blowing up massively once it joins in the southern branch of the jet stream.

The 16-20" could seem aggresive but Buffalo is basically sitting RIGHT in the firing lane of the low pressures projected path, and they want people to realize that this will be a major snow event that will severely disrupt travel plans for the majority of people.

I myself am happy. I will be one of the few out on the hill skiing, and if it dumps enough by mid-afternoon, I’m heading out to do some local “backcountry” on some of the steeper hills of the Southern Tier…
