Lake Effect snow coming off of Lake Ontario is going to start hitting Northern Genesee County shortly, according to the National Weather Service out of Buffalo.
Wind gusts of up to 25 mph combined with a snowfall rate of 1 to 2 inches per hour could create whiteout conditions and caution when traveling is advised.
South of the lake effect region, expect scattered snow showers with about an inches accumulation.
UPDATE 9:24 p.m.: The winter storm advisory for Batavia is canceled. We now have a lake effect storm warning in place until 6 p.m. tomorrow. Expect accumulations of 3 to 6 inches tonight. Travel conditions could be difficult.
A good poll question: Do you
A good poll question:
Do you shovel during the storm to keep ahead of it, or do you wait until it has passed and do it all at once?
This is a good day to stay home and watch the games in TV.
Depends...sometimes I shovel
Depends...sometimes I shovel to keep ahead of it, but mostly I just don't shovel at all.
I just cant wait to get
I just cant wait to get outside and shovel the walk, clean fresh air and a fresh coat of snow. If needed I have a trusty snow blower to do driveway and main sidewalk, this has its advantages, why just this morning I shook the hand of a good neighbor that I havent seen in ages.
I guess my answer would be, all of the above to snow clearing, its my duty.
