Lake Effect Snow Warning

 LAKE EFFECT SNOW WARNING IN EFFECT FROM 1 PM WEDNESDAY TO 4 PM EST SATURDAY...

* WHAT...Heavy lake effect snow expected. Total snow accumulations
between 6 and 12 inches with locally higher amounts beneath the
most persistent snow bands. Winds gusting as high as 40 mph.

* WHERE...Hamilton and Herkimer Counties.

* WHEN...From 1 PM Wednesday to 4 PM EST Saturday.

* IMPACTS...Roads will become slick and hazardous. Visibilities may
drop below 1/4 mile due to falling and blowing snow.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Snow Wednesday afternoon will transition to a
multi-day lake-effect snow event Wednesday night into this
weekend. The band will likely oscillate between the Mohawk Valley
and Adirondacks during this time bringing periods of heavy snow
and gusty winds resulting in blowing and drifting snow.

Cross your fingers the lake effect bands stay in our area more than anywhere else.  Won't be the first time things have changed overnight.  We aren't starting from zip, but we do need a good amount of snow to get out riding again.

    2. It is Lake Effect in narrow concentrated bands on a northwest wind. Wrong direction for OF! All the snow is on the southern end of the tug hill south to the thruway and west to the lake shore. Some areas are getting hit just as the warning is stating 1 to 2+ feet. Finally get to ride from home and leave the trailer parked in the yard! Sorry Steve we finally have more than you :) but there are 3 months to go so you will still get your share and some awesome riding that has eluded us for the last 3 years.
