Here is Where the Snow Will Fall in Central New York and How Much You’ll Get
Anyone who has lived in Central New York for a winter season knows how finicky Lake Effect Snow can be. Some areas get a foot, others a couple of inches. And so it will with our latest Winter Storm. Here's where the snow falls thru Thursday, March 7.
Let's just say, "grab a shovel Syracuse," it's going to get deep. The National Weather Service officially has issued a Winter Storm Warning for Onondaga and Madison Counties and Winter Weather Advisory for the rest of Central New York.
The Syracuse area will see the heaviest snowfall with 1-2 inches per hour possible. Travel will be difficult for the morning commute.
Up to 18 inches of snow is possible in Syracuse while the rest of central New York could see anywhere from 3 to 8 inches.
