Winter Storm Warning Extended In Western New York

There is a Winter Storm Warning in place for Wyoming, Chautauqua. Cattaraugus and Southern Erie counties today, now until 10 pm. Originally, the warning was set to expire at 1 am this morning, then it was pushed back to 10 am, and now the National Weather Service in Buffalo has extended the warning until 10 pm tonight.

Most of the new snow will be in the Southern Tier and in ski country, but there could be an additional 3-5 inches of snow across the southern part of Western New York. Travel could also be impacted by the weather. Wind gusts could cause white-out conditions along roadways, and deep snow along the road could really slow things down.

Temperatures are set to increase as we head into the weekend, and we could still see some lake effect snow on Saturday and Sunday before temperatures get into the 40s next week. We could also see rain showers in the middle of next week, which could help melt some of the snow already on the ground.
