Lake Effect Storm Cherokee - 12/21-12/24 1999
Remote Sensing Views

Unfortunately, the Montague radar at the east end of Lake Ontario was inoperable during most of this event.  There is however limited data from early in the event.  The Buffalo radar data was from Wednesday, the first day of the event,  and we have provided a 9-hour radar loop to show how the snowband became stronger and better organized as the day progressed.  The loop will take a bit longer to load.   There are also a couple of visible satellite images which show the cloudbands associated with the lake effect snow over the east end of each lake.  Click on each image to get a full view.
