...LAKE EFFECT SNOW AND INCREASING WINDS IN BUFFALO AND AREAS JUST
SOUTH LATE THIS MORNING...
Late this morning, a plume of lake effect snow producing snowfall
rates of 1 to 2 inches per hour will be across the city of Buffalo
and areas just south, including Hamburg, West Seneca, and East
Aurora. The band will also expand further away from the lake, into
western portions of Wyoming and Genesee counties. In addition to the
snow, winds will increase late this morning and early afternoon,
with gusts to 35 mph resulting in areas of blowing snow. The band is
expected to remain nearly stationary through early afternoon.
Roadways will be snow covered, with untreated roads being very
difficult if not impossible to travel upon.
This includes Interstate 90 between exits 59 and 52, and near exit
48A.

...HEAVY SNOW LAKE EFFECT SNOW WITH GUSTY WINDS AND NEAR WHITEOUT
CONDITIONS THIS AFTERNOON...
Heavy lake effect snow will continue this afternoon, with snowfall
rates of 1 to 2 inches per hour. The heaviest snows will be south of
a Buffalo to Batavia line, extending well into Wyoming and Genesee
counties, and southward including the far south towns.
The combination of heavy snow and winds gusting to 40 mph will
result in near whiteout conditions in lake effect snow. Travel in
lake effect snow will be difficult to impossible this afternoon.
Avoid all unnecessary travel.
This includes Interstate 90 between exits 58 and 50A, and exit 49 and
near exit 48.
