A complex storm system will cause light snow later today and during
the first part of the night. Stronger snow showers and some heavy
squalls are expected in the second half of the night. Then, lake
effect snow bands will kick in on Thursday. A break in snowfall
accumulations could occur Thursday morning for areas south of
Interstate 80, but the snow will pick back up again later in the
day. The lake effect will continue through Friday night across for
the northern Alleghenies.

between 6 and 15 inches. Winds gusting as high as 50 mph.

* WHERE…Cameron, Elk, McKean, Potter, and Warren Counties.

* WHEN…From 4 PM this afternoon to 8 PM EST Friday.

* IMPACTS…Whiteout conditions are expected at times and will make
