HAPPY VETERANS DAY TO ALL THOSE WHO SERVED! WE SALUTE YOU AND APPRECIATE YOU! AND TO ALL OF YOU IN UPSTATE NY, AT LEAST IN MOST OF IT, WELCOME TO WINTER! YOUR FIRST ACCUMULATING SNOWS FOR MANY OF YOU HAVE ALREADY FALLEN! IF NOT, YOURS WILL LIKELY COME ABOUT LATER TODAY, TONIGHT, OR TOMORROW MORNING

I have updated the snowfall amounts and the totals across Upstate NY. Some of those numbers in a few areas did go down, however most of the numbers WENT UP. The lake effect snow is looking solid on all of the models, we are in the short range, high resolution models, and all are in

We have predicted this first true blast of “winter” for most of Upstate NY for several days now. We have waited, some would argue longer than we needed to, but we now feel comfortable with the forecast. Basically the closer you are to the Canadian Border, the better chance you will see accumulating snows tomorrow

This is a rare evening post. But I am doing it for a couple of reasons: 1) The weather is definitely acting “November like” out there. Not all the time but some of the time. And when it does, it’s best if you pay attention. There have been big storms in November that have caught

Welcome back! And welcome to the FIRST 2025-26 SNOWFALL MAP! It is not much, but at least it is something! We have the best shot at our first snows of the season on Halloween Night and into Saturday morning the 1st of November. Hmmm. I remember another much bigger storm at that exact time period.

The rain showers have been around Upstate NY for the better part of 24 hours now as of this writing (830 AM Thursday 10/23). It is still way too warm to talk about snow, even in the higher elevations of the Adirondacks. Unless you are talking “high peaks” territory. But things will change as we

The storm is over us. It will be getting gradually colder over the next 36-60 hours. Will it get cold enough to change rain to SNOW across the Adirondacks, especially above 1500′ to 2000′? It is still looking possible but it’s by a thread. It is literally by a borderline. We had planned to put
