112 AM EST Sun Dec 14 2025 SYNOPSIS... Heavy lake effect snow east of Lake Ontario and Lake Erie will continue this morning, then break up into more widespread, but weaker multiple bands of snow showers this afternoon through tonight south of the lakes as winds turn northerly. A very cold airmass and a breeze will produce wind chills near or a little below zero at times through Monday morning. Another clipper system will then cross the eastern Great Lakes Monday through early Tuesday, with another period of lake enhanced snow east of the lakes with additional accumulations, heaviest east of Lake Ontario. Lake effect snow will end on Tuesday, and this will be followed by a notable warming trend through the middle of the week. Area Forecast Discussion
