156 AM EST Sat Dec 13 2025 SYNOPSIS... Impactful lake snows off Lake Ontario will slowly lift north and then weaken in the process tonight. Lake effect snow will redevelop late tonight across Niagara County out ahead of a strong cold front...with the front then rapidly pushing the lake snows back southward and bringing a few quick inches of snow to areas northeast and east of Lakes Erie and Ontario during Saturday. Much colder air pouring across the region in the wake of the frontal passage will then help to generate locally heavy lake snows east and southeast of the lakes Saturday night through Sunday night.
