Cutlas3391 776 #1 Posted January 2, 2016 Well the lake effect snow machine finally here and will be in the area the next few days as the band goes up and down through Western New York. For you guys dont understand what lake effect does it produced during cooler atmospheric conditions when a cold air mass moves across long expanses of warmer lake water, warming the lower layer of air which picks up water vapor from the lake, rises up through the colder air above, freezes and dumps snow that can last up to a week. Sometimes u can get 3inches up to 7 feet. As of last year when we got close to 7 feet in my area in a 2 day span. Anyways got about 6 inches today and more most likely next few days. Probably lake erie wont freeze over the rest of winter which means open lake more snow. Anyways heres a picture of the 520 snow machine. Im located South of Buffalo,NY Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
