Syracuse Prepared for Major Snowstorm as Winter Weather Moves In

Syracuse Braces for Snowy Weather Ahead!

Hey there, Syracuse! Get ready to bundle up because some *serious* winter weather is on its way. After a whirlwind of weather patterns, it looks like lake effect snow will be hitting our lovely city and the surrounding areas from now through Tuesday. So, grab your snow boots and prepare for slippery roads!

What’s Causing This Snowstorm?

Put simply, the chilly air sweeping across all five of the Great Lakes is what we like to call the perfect recipe for lake effect snow. This phenomenon happens when colder air moves over warmer lake waters, creating clouds that can drop a substantial amount of snow in just a short period. And boy, are we in for a treat because the forecasts show that this will be impacting Central New York, especially Syracuse!

Road Conditions Alert!

As snowflakes start to fall, the roads will become snow-covered and slippery. Expect to navigate carefully around Onondaga County, along with Wayne and Cayuga counties. The experts say that conditions could turn tricky as we move into these next couple of days. So whether you’re headed to work, school, or just out for a snack, keep your eyes on the road!

Snowfall Predictions

Now, let’s break down what we can expect! Between 10 PM on Sunday and 7 AM on Monday, we might see some fresh snowfall accumulating. Ooh, isn’t that exciting? And during the day on Monday, from 7 AM to 7 PM, keep an eye out for new snow totals as well. It looks like we’re in for a few inches, so stay tuned for those specific numbers!

What Comes After the Snow?

Thinking ahead? After Tuesday, there will be *off and on* light snowfall expected. While the snow may taper off, don’t tuck your winter gear away just yet because it appears that this week will continue to present us with chilly temperatures and gusty winds. Stay cozy and keep that hot cocoa handy!

What Should You Do?

As winter weather takes a firm grip on the area, it’s a great time to prepare. Don’t forget to:

• Have a reliable snow shovel or a snowblower ready.
• Stock up on essential items from the grocery store, just in case you can’t venture out.
• If you use a car, make sure it’s stocked with winter safety kits and that your tires are winter-ready!
