224 AM EST Thu Dec 4 2025 SYNOPSIS... The second of a pair of strong cold fronts will cross the region through this morning, bringing snow showers and bands of locally heavier lake enhanced snow. The lake snows are currently northeast of Lake Erie and Lake Ontario near Buffalo and Watertown early this morning, will then move rapidly south through the morning to areas southeast of both lakes. These bands will produce light to locally moderate snow accumulations, and gusty winds will also produce areas of blowing and drifting snow. The coldest airmass of the winter season will arrive late today through early Friday with wind chills dropping to at or below zero tonight through early Friday morning. Mainly dry weather will return by Friday as high pressure briefly builds into the eastern Great Lakes. Area Forecast Discussion
