“This is by no means widespread snow, but where the lake-effect snow belt continues, we could soon see a few inches of snow from Saturday night through early Sunday,” said Matt, senior meteorologist at 3News. Wintz explains.
Motorists should plan for slippery road conditions and poor visibility during advisories. The National Weather Service adds that a maximum snowfall rate of 1 inch per hour is expected, especially from Saturday evening through Sunday morning before dawn.
