• Q: What is Lake Effect Snow?.
• This snow, known as "lake-effect snow," is generated from the temperature contrast between the cold arctic air moving over the relatively warm waters of the Great Lakes (or other large body of water). Unlike most winter storms, lake effect snows do not build their foundation upon strong areas of low pressure. ... So while other parts of the northeastern United States are clearing up after a recent cold frontal passage, communities near the Great Lakes wait for the lake effect snow machine to fire up!

Lake effect snows yielding as much as 193 cm (76 inches) of light-density snow in 24 hours and fall rates as high as 15 cm (6 inches) per hour have been reported. Furthermore, because winds accompanying arctic air masses generally originate from a southwest to northwest direction, lake effect snow typically falls on the east or southeast sides of the lakes. In general, lake effect snowfall contributes between 30 and 60 percent of the annual winter snowfall on the eastern and southern shores of the Great Lakes. ...

• Intensity: Lake effect snow may take the form of a single strong snow band or several weaker snow bands. ...
• Variables Contributing to Lake Effect Snow .
• The distribution of lake effect snow is dependent upon several factors—many are associated with the prevailing meteorological situation, while others are a function of the physical geography of the land and water in the immediate area: .
• Temperature Difference Between Lake Surface and Overlaying Air: The temperature difference between the lake surface and overlying air promotes "convective instability " that provides the basic energy source for lake effect snow. ...
