Rates of 2 in/hr possible. DISCUSSION...As of 21:45 UTC, regional radar showed a well-developed lake-effect snow band ongoing across the eastern shores of Lake Erie. A post-frontal arctic airmass with strong southwesterly flow is evident on the Buffalo VAD/VWP with a well-defined 60-70 kt low-level jet parallel to the lake axis. Strong convergence and warm lake temperatures will continue to support banding and heavy snow across the eastern shores through this evening. Rates of 2 in/hr will be possible within the primary band close to the lake shore where convergence and convective effects are strongest. In addition, the strong winds aloft will continue to support strong surface gusts greater than 50 mph through this evening. Localized blizzard conditions are expected along the immediate lake shore where heavy falling and blowing snow will support zero visibility. ...Lyons.. 12/23/2022 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!4l3zW1ImVRS3aagfgfDKNNC18-UZ1fy2s67YFXNN6HjO7-cYm7BWkByUqzZaIr-Pau1EdJw81= b1ABX0uxFR8O1725tE$ for graphic product...
