lake effect snow

We lucked out for the most part... It's cold, it's snowy, but we've dealt with a LOT worse. And we're not getting buried in snowfall, like some places in NY.

The new "Lake Effect Snow Speed Limit" is being closely guarded by New York State Troopers.

The National Weather Service has issued a Winter Weather Advisory for parts of Central New York, with several areas under a winter storm warning.

A winter storm could bring as much as 10 inches of Lake Effect Snow to CNY. The National Weather Service has issued Winter Storm Warnings/Watches for the area.

And just like that, lake effect snow has arrived in Upstate New York. Are you ready for winter to really get started?

The National Weather Service has issued a Hazardous Weather Outlook in anticipation of icy roadways and lake effect squalls.

Nobody likes to step outside and feel frigid temperatures freezing their nose. Now, a new study suggests extreme CNY weather might be making you miserable.

Just when you think you've figured out the difference between a warning and a watch, the National Weather Service is making some changes in CNY. Buh-bye, Lake Effect Snow Watch.

UPDATE: A Lake Effect Snow Advisory has also been put into effect for Central and Southern Oneida County. The National Weather Service has issued an extended Lake Effect Snow Warning for Northern Central New York. It will begin at midnight on Friday.

The National Weather Service of Binghamton has issued a Lake Effect Snow Warning for most of Central New York. The warning is currently underway, and will go until at least Saturday morning.

I don't know the exact ratio break down, so let's just say some CNYer's are going to be happy, while others will be frowning.  Our 1st Lake Effect Snow Warning of the season is officially here.

This photo from the New York State Police truly tells the story of today's historic (and that's not hyperbole) lake effect snow event. The Buffalo suburb of Cheektowaga recieved over 50 inches of snow. The massive snowfall caused the New York State Thruway to be closed through all of Western New York past Rochester.
