Clear skies will continue through the overnight hours with seasonably cold overnight lows in the lower to middle 20's across much of the area. Tomorrow will start off very similarly before clouds begin increasing after lunchtime ahead of a low pressure system currently over the Midwest. This system may bring some scattered, light rainfall to the region going through Saturday night into Sunday. During the day Saturday and Sunday temperatures will get up into the 50's; except closer to the lake where it may stay a bit cooler. Stay tuned to forecast updates through the weekend for the latest information!

March 30th and 31st, 2013 Forecast

Forecast Discussion: We are finally seeing our first taste of spring across the central New York region today. This more pleasant weather will be continuing through tomorrow making everyone's Easter weekend travels a little easier. However, as we head overnight Saturday into Sunday we will be watching an area of low pressure strengthening to our north. This system will be ushering in light to moderate rain through the afternoon and evening hours on Sunday with cooler air wrapping into our area behind the cold front which will come through Sunday evening. Breezy and cool conditions will be the theme as we start next week across our area. Stay tuned for updates on coming rain as we move through this weekend!

March 23rd and 24th, 2013 Forecast

Forecast Discussion: Persistent lake effect snows will continue overnight through early tomorrow on top of the 2-3 feet which some locations in sections of the Tug Hill region have already received over the last couple of days. We will finally see this snow shower trend come to an end by tomorrow evening as high pressure temporarily moves in ahead of a developing coastal storm well to the southeast of the central New York region. Through the weekend temperatures will continue being chilly with overnight lows in the 20's so make sure you bundle up as you head out for dinner or wherever you may be headed for potential weekend travels. Stay tuned for updates on potential impacts of the aforementioned winter storm latest this weekend as we get closer to yet another winter storm here across the Northeast region!

March 2nd and 3rd, 2013 Forecast

Forecast Discussion: Across the area we have had a few scattered flurries through the day.

February 16th and 17th, 2013 Forecast

Forecast Discussion: As we enter the latter half of the winter, expect to see somewhat moderating trends with less frequent/severe cold-air outbreaks. For the coming week, we will not see that just yet as a number of low pressure systems will make their way into our area. For Monday, we are looking at a possibility of some lingering lake effect snow showers or flurries around. By Tuesday, we are monitoring the potential for a storm to bring a wintry mix of rain/snow into the area. Behind this departing system, Wednesday will feature the chance for possible lake effect snow east of Lake Ontario with seasonably chilly temperatures in the 20s. Looking ahead to Thursday, we clear out nicely with just a few flurries around before we see yet another opportunity for more wintry weather to arrive on Friday.

February 9th and 10th, 2013 Forecast

Forecast Discussion: Through the overnight hours and into the first part of tomorrow morning Winter Storm Nemo will continue impacting our region. Light to moderate snowfall will continue accumulating to generally between 5-10 inches just the south and east of Lake Ontario. It is important to note that locally higher amounts will be possible in any heavier banding which sets up through the remainder of this event. After it clears by midday tomorrow the clean-up begins with just a few possible leftover flurries and then clearer conditions in place through all of Sunday. By Sunday night clouds will re-thicken as another storm approaches the region from the Midwest. This will likely usher in more precipitation in the form of freezing rain changing to rain later that day. Stay tuned through the weekend for updates and send us your snow totals from Nemo! Have a great weekend and stay safe!

February 2nd and 3rd, 2013 Forecast

Forecast Discussion: Most of central New York continues to feel the wrath of winter's bitter chill with lake effect snow thrown into the mix more recently. Looking to Super Bowl weekend it looks to be more of the same with lingering lake effect snow showers through the day tomorrow which should taper off by tomorrow evening. Temperatures through the weekend look to be well below freezing during the day and very cold during the overnight hours so be sure to dress in layers. As we go into early next week there could be even more snowfall on the horizon believe it or not. Stay tuned for updates through the weekend on updates as we close out the first weekend of February!

January 26th and 27th, 2013 Forecast

Forecast Discussion: As much of the central New York region remains under the influence of a frigid and snowy pattern over the last few days some want an end and some cannot get enough snow. Going through this weekend we will be seeing additional snowfall across our area as a weak low pressure system comes through overnight tonight through early tomorrow giving us an inch or two of possible accumulation come Saturday morning. Looking towards Sunday we finally will witness the beginnings of a warming trend as highs will get into the upper 20's and lower 30's which is more seasonable compared to the single digits we have had to become accustomed to more recently. Looking towards next week we could easily get into the low-mid 40's by Tuesday before we cool back down towards the middle and latter part of the week. Check back for updates through the weekend!

January 19th and 20th, 2013 Forecast

Forecast Discussion: This coming weekend will bring a continued snowy trend as a low pressure which passed to our southeast has kicked up a decent lake response off of Lake Ontario giving parts of central New York some snowfall today. This will be the case for Saturday night through Sunday as well with more snow courtesy of a weak clipper system that will pass through dropping anywhere from a trace to a few inches of new snowfall. This coming week will bring a substantial change from what we have called the norm for this winter. A number of weak clipper systems will be coming down from Canada and ride through our area giving us bursts of snow with possible lake effect snow events in between anywhere from Monday through Wednesday evening. Each of these weak storms may give the central New York region anywhere from a dusting to a few inches of snow with some lake effect snowfall adding on to that. The other main theme for this week will be the Arctic air surging in behind each of these aforementioned clipper systems; holding temperatures below the 20 degree mark Monday through Thursday which even for this time of year is still 10-15 degrees below normal. Be sure to dress in layers as you head out to school and work! Heading towards the end of the week we are closely monitoring the potential for a Nor'easter to develop well south and east of our area which may bring additional snowfall to the area. Stay tuned for updates through the weekend and the coming week!

January 12th and 13th, 2013 Forecast

Forecast Discussion: Across the central New York region we have seen clouds around of late with no accumulating snowfall in our most recent memory. Over the next several days we will see everything from rain during the second half of this weekend to possible lake effect snowfall later this coming week as we watch another cold spell take hold of our area. The main story before the middle of next week will mainly be the unseasonably warm temperatures which have been in place of late. However, do not your guard down since it is looking like we will be seeing daytime highs in the lower 30's and overnight lows in the low-mid teens as we get into the middle of next week! Keep your rain and winter jackets on standby and stay tuned for updates later this weekend right here at cnyweather.blogspot.com!

January 5th and 6th, 2013 Forecast

Forecast Discussion: Across parts of central New York (mainly east of Lake Ontario) lake effect snow showers have persisted through much of today and will remain overnight. Heading through the overnight and into the morning commute the lake effect machine will taper off to flurries with the cold winds coming across the lake weakening. Heading through tomorrow, we are watching a weak low pressure system which will likely bring increasing clouds through the afternoon with a resurgence of mainly light snowfall to our area. With this quick moving system we are anticipating a general 1-3" inches in most spots with locally higher amounts possible in any heavier banding which sets up. Going into the day on Sunday, snow continues through much of day before tapering off to flurries in the evening. Through the weekend we are looking seasonable conditions; highs in the upper 20's to lower 30's and overnight lows in lower 20's. As we turn our attention to next week we are awaiting a much-awaited thaw from all of this bitterly cold weather with 40's making a return to our region. Stay tuned with us right here for updates through the weekend!

December 29th and 30th, 2012 Forecast

Forecast Discussion: Across the central New York we have been waking up to a winter wonderland courtesy of the big Post-Christmas Nor'easter which delivered a foot plus of snowfall to our area. The scattered snow showers we saw today were from a very weak area of low pressure which will then be followed up during the day tomorrow by a somewhat stronger storm passing well to the southeast of our neck of the woods. Nonetheless, we can certainly anticipate on seeing a solid 1-3" of additional snowfall on top of what we already have on the ground now. As we move overnight into Sunday, snow showers will likely linger through the day giving an additional inch possibly. Through this period we can expect fairly seasonable temperatures with daytime temperatures in the upper 20's while the average temperature is 33. Stick with us through the weekend on updates on the possible snow going into the first week of 2013. From all of us here at cnyweather.blogspot.com we continue to wish everyone a very happy and healthy holiday season!

December 22nd and 23rd, 2012 Forecast

Forecast Discussion: The powerful storm which completely blanketed the Midwest over the last few days will be departing our area overnight tonight. In doing so, this will set the stage for a formidable lake-effect snow event to get underway from late tonight and likely not ending until late Sunday or early Monday morning. New snowfall accumulations could likely range anywhere from a few inches to well over a foot of snow depending on your location. There is the potential for locally heavy snowfall leading to whiteout conditions in the most intense bands that develop south and east of Lake Ontario. Through this period, temperatures will remain well below average with highs in the mid to upper 20's and lows in the upper teens to lower 20's. Looking beyond the weekend, it seems that a White Christmas will be in the cards for our area as we will also be seeing snow during Christmas Day as a weak area of low pressure brings a chance for additional snowfall on top of the lake-effect. Further down the road, things seem to remain unsettled towards the middle and latter part of next week. Stay tuned for updates through the week as we get closer to Christmas and beyond! Happy Holidays from all of us here at cnyweather.blogspot.com! :)

December 8th and 9th, 2012 Forecast

Forecast Discussion: Over the course of this weekend we will see a combination of rain and snow across central New York. Beyond the weekend we will be seeing snow and rain chances continue through Monday and a good portion of Tuesday as consecutive areas of low pressure continue to traverse the region. By Wednesday, we expect high pressure to build back in to the region and staying with us through at least Friday of this coming week. Stay tuned for updates as we move through the weekend!

December 1st and 2nd, 2012 Forecast

Forecast Discussion: Light snow starting off the weekend will give way to clearing during Saturday before a weak low approaches the region on Sunday bringing showers. Behind the low there will be a fairly strong southerly flow allowing for possibly near-record warmth across parts of central New York. By Wednesday afternoon/evening there will likely be a front approaching after the rain pushes through bringing in cooler and more seasonable conditions to the region. Stay with us right here at cnyweather.blogspot.com for updates later this weekend on your forecast for the next week!

November 24th and 25th, 2012 Forecast

Forecast Discussion: A cold front passing through the Northeast overnight tonight will be ushering much colder air into the central New York region. This cold blast will be triggering lake effect snow off of Lake Ontario as well as Lake Erie tonight through Tuesday. Some areas could see up to or over 6" of new snowfall; particularly over the Tug Hill plateau in the north country of CNY. Wednesday seems to contain the possibility of additional snowfall with a weak low pressure system possibly giving us some additional snowfall. By Thursday through next weekend we are anticipating clearing. Stay tuned for updates with us right here at cnyweather.blogspot.com on this upcoming lake effect event!
