146 PM EST Thu Nov 13 2025

.DISCUSSION...
Lake effect rain/snow showers and cool temperatures
continue today and Friday, although lake effect precipitation will
not be as widespread on Friday. Drier weather briefly returns
Saturday, but a low pressure system tracking to our north will bring
valley rain and high-elevation wintry mix changing to rain Saturday
night and Sunday. Additional lake effect snow showers will be
possible behind this storm early next week with another cold
airmass moving over the region.
