#sunset over Lake Erie

Late night fun up at Niagara Falls! The fog and mist picks up the light illumination perfectly!

Niagara River hike out into Lake Erie to check in on the ice cover! #NYwx

The clouds cleared just in time for the sun to put on a show tonight over Lake Erie. Shifting wind directions shoved fresh ice chunks back onto shore today. These nights of fire over ice are dwindling as our big ice cube continues to melt away and winter nears it end. #NYwx

Post your best sunset photos…

Really looks like the ice wants out! Hamburg Beach Monday night. Smaller ice flows moving between larger ice fields as winds shift offshore.

Flashback to 10 years ago when the south side of the Buffalo Metro area was getting clobbered by a historic lake effect snow band. Rates exceeded 6”/hr and upwards of 65” of snow was observed during the first 24 hours of the storm. #NYwx #WXsky #SkyWX

Flashback to 10 years ago today. The Buffalo area was in the midst of an intense lake effect snow event that dumped up to 65” of snow in the first 24 hours of the storm. #NYwx

Starting to get that chill in the air… who else is ready for some cold and snow?
