.DISCUSSION...
Low pressure passing north of the region will continue to bring
scattered rain showers to much of the area through this evening,
with wet snow mixing in across higher terrain. More persistent lower
elevation rain and higher terrain wet snow will continue east of
Lake Ontario with minor accumulations across the Tug Hill Plateau.
High pressure will build back into the eastern Great Lakes Monday
with a return to dry weather and partial sunshine. The next low
pressure system will bring rain by Tuesday, with a strong cold front
late Wednesday ushering in gusty winds and a return to localized
lake effect snow east of the lakes Wednesday night through the end
of the week.
