.DISCUSSION...
Snow showers from a clipper disturbance today continues this
afternoon with lake effect and upslope enhancements in the
western/southern Adirondacks and southern Greens leading to
light snow accumulations this afternoon into tonight. We trend
milder tomorrow through Wednesday with rain showers Tuesday
afternoon into Wednesday before a more potent cold front marches
through Wednesday evening. This will result in colder and
windier conditions for the Thanksgiving holiday into the
weekend along with increasing confidence for accumulating lake
effect and upslope snow Thursday into Friday night.
