A quick moving system called an Alberta Clipper will come through the area.  1-3″ of snow is likely for the Upper Midwest, which is really no big deal for them.  Other areas will see additional lake effect snowfall in Western Michigan to Northern Indiana, with 3-6″ of additional snowfall on-top of what is there now being likely, with gusty wind potential for blowing snow.

Other areas of lake effect snowfall will be in Central/Northern Ohio to Northwestern Pennsylvania.  Up to 6″ of snowfall will be possible due to the lake effect influence in these areas … especially around Cleveland, OH.  This also is an area will BLIZZARD-LIKE conditions will be possible due to the strong winds along the arctic front.

If trends continue for blowing snowfall with the snow conditions across the heavier snowfall areas listed above … Blizzard Advisory/Warning products may be required …
