Description By 1900 UTC, cloud to ground lightning strikes were noted on the National Lightning Detection Network (NLDN) and reported by NWS Buffalo snow spotters during a Lake Effect Snow Storm occurring on the 12 to 13th of October 2006 over the Buffalo (NY) area. While thundersnows themselves are very uncommon (Curran, 1971), those that do occur typically only last up to 5 hours (Market, 2001). The NLDN depicted an average of fifteen cloud to ground strikes per hour between 0000 and 0900 UTC on Oct 13 with fourteen non- consecutive hours of lightning being reported. Here is the 0100 UTC KBUF WSR-88D weather radar composite reflectivity image and National Lightning Detection Network one-hour lightning display : + and - are the lightning strikes, the colors are the snow intensities.
