Snow Much for a Break! More Winter Weather on the Way in CNY

Had enough snow yet? More is on the way in Central New York.

How much? Enough for the National Weather Service to issue a Winter Weather Advisory.

Old Man Winter seems to be making up for the past several years without much of the white stuff.

The first major storm of 2025 dumped a staggering amount of snow across parts of New York. Northern Oneida County may still be digging out from more than 5 feet.

Winter Weather Advisory

This storm is affecting Onondaga, Southern Cayuga, Seneca-Tompkins-Cortland-Madison-Chenango counties.

At least most of the towns already buried are getting a bit of break.

The Winter Weather Advisory for more lake effect snow is in effect until early Thursday afternoon.

How Much Snow

Up to 3 inches of snow is expected Wednesday morning.

But wait. There's more.

Another 2 to 6 inches is expected to fall Wednesday afternoon through Thursday morning.

We’ll see a brief break from the snow later this morning and into the afternoon, giving us a little pause between the heavier snowfalls this morning and tonight.

We could get anywhere from 3 to 9 more inches of snow by Thursday morning, depending on where the snowbands set up shop.
