Winter Weather Watch: Winter Storm Boreas

By: Tom Niziol, 11/27/2013

Northeast

Marginal snow will occur from Upstate New York through northern New England Wednesday on the cold side of Boreas. Most of the precipitation associated with Boreas will be off the New England coast by Thanksgiving morning, allowing for much easier travel conditions.  Only 1 to 3 inches of additional snow is likely.

Great Lakes/Appalachians

North to northwest winds will set up localized lake-effect snows near South Bend, Erie, and Syracuse Wednesday through Thursday. As much as 4 to 8 inches of snow is likely and could impact travel in narrow 10 to 15 mile wide bands along the I-80/90 and I-94 corridor off Lake Michigan near South Bend, the I-90 corridor off Lake Erie between Cleveland and Erie and the I-90/I-81 corridor off Lake Ontario near Syracuse.  We will also see snow on the northwest slopes of the Central Appalachians Wednesday through Wednesday night with 3 to 5 inches likely at higher elevations.
