    Areas affected...2 Eastern New York

    Concerning...Heavy snow=20

    Valid 152313Z - 160315Z

    SUMMARY...A band of moderate to heavy snow across central New York
    will likely spread east into eastern New York over the next few
    hours.

    DISCUSSION...Over the past 1-2 hours, a fairly well organized snow
    band has become established over central NY state based on composite reflectivity and water-vapor trends. Although recent CAMs have
    depicted the evolution of this band, the overall intensity appears
    to be stronger than initially suggested by CAM output when compared
    to observed visibility reductions (1/2 to 1/4 mile from Syracuse to
    Utica, NY) and regional web cams. Pockets of snowfall rates
    approaching 1 inch/hour appear probable within the band based on
    these observations, and should persist for the next 1-3 hours as the
    band spreads across eastern NY. After around 02 UTC, the persistence
    and intensity of this band becomes less certain as frontogenesis
    within the 850-700 mb layer abates. However, persistent ascent
    within the left-exit region of an approaching mid-level jet
    overlapped with a broad warm frontal zone may allow for pockets of
    moderate to heavy snowfall rates to persist after 02 UTC into the
    New England region.
