Snowfall rates may exceed 2 inches/hr at times, with near-zero visibility and dangerous travel conditions likely. DISCUSSION...While deep-layer flow has become more zonal with the passage of a surface lee trough, roughly unidirectional vertical wind profiles remain oriented along a long axis of Lake Ontario. This deep-layer flow paralleling Lake Ontario supports a deep fetch of moist, buoyant air, characterized by 8.5 C/km low-level lapse rates/100 J/kg SBCAPE. As such, convectively driven bursts of snow are likely to continue within the broader snow band through tonight, with snowfall rates occasionally exceeding 2 inches/hr, as also suggested by the 00Z HREF ensemble guidance consensus. The heaviest snowfall rates may reduce visibility to near zero and promote overall dangerous travel conditions. ...Squitieri.. 11/19/2022 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!7nWnDqYO1iV9neQb8z8zT6H54xg3Eb6WvgbobfqOfV3tB0KL-_FiQ-OpuowyKPDM7lAa1oxpV= QkSi5Fq_bXjtMOSUH0$ for graphic product...
