.DISCUSSION...
As strengthening low pressure tracks from northern New England
into the Canadian Maritimes today, a cold northwest flow will
develop resulting in some lake effect and upslope snow showers.
Winds will become gusty today through Friday. Aside from some
lingering lake effect snow well north and west of Albany, dry
conditions should prevail Friday through Friday night with
continued below normal temperatures. A disturbance may bring
some light snow Saturday into Saturday night.
