The wind fetch over Lake Ontario with westerly winds shifting to northwesterly is IDEAL for Oswego, NY to get blasted by heavy lake effect. The @Windycom app is a great tool for short term lake effect snow plume prediction. Up to two feet additional snow possible today pic.twitter.com/oa94IGtlZP

Jeff Masters indicated that the climate window for these lake-effect snow events is get shorter each year, and it will eventually become lake-effect rain.
