You may need to give yourself a little extra time to get to where you're going this morning. Snow is expected to create a slippery commute in Central New York. Anywhere from a few inches to a foot is predicted, depending on where you live.

The National Weather Service has issued a Winter Weather Advisory until 4 PM Tuesday, January 16.

Inches Not Feet

Don't worry. We won't see snow in feet but there will be enough to impact travel on the roads, especially in the morning.

Steady light snow may be moderate at times during the morning hours on Tuesday before gradually tapering off and ending in the late afternoon. Temperatures will be cold in the 20s through the event, leading to a dry, powdery snowfall.

2 to 5 inches are expected in Madison, Southern Oneida, Cortland, Chenango, Tioga, and Broome counties. And it looks like it'll be easy to shovel rather than that wet, heavy stuff we got the last time.

The chilly temperatures will move in overnight and hang around all day Wednesday with wind chills as low as -4.

Northern Oneida County will be getting a little more snow.

A Lake Effect Snow Warning is in effect in Northern Oneida County from 7 AM until 5 AM on Wednesday, January 17.

Heavy lake effect snow is expected to bring anywhere from 5 to 10 inches. The far northwestern part of the country could see up to a foot.
