Wayne County: A lake effect snow advisory is in effect from 4 PM Thursday to 1 PM Friday. Total snow accumulations are expected to range between 4 to 9 inches in areas experiencing the most persistent lake effect snow bands.

An additional 1 to 3 inches of snow is anticipated, accompanied by wind gusts reaching 45 mph. These conditions are likely to make travel difficult, especially during morning and evening commutes.

Chautauqua, Cattaraugus, and Southern Erie Counties: Residents should expect continued snowfall through 7 AM Friday, with an additional 4 to 8 inches possible.

Wind gusts could also reach up to 45 mph, increasing the risk of isolated power outages due to downed tree branches.

The National Weather Service advises motorists to exercise caution, as periods of heavy snow and strong winds can lead to rapidly changing road conditions and reduced visibility.
