Heavy snow will fall in relatively narrow bands. If traveling, be

Submit snow reports through our website or social media.

During lake effect snow, the weather can vary from bands of locally
heavy snow with greatly reduced visibilities to dry conditions just
a few miles away. Be prepared for rapid changes in weather,
visibility, and road conditions.

Consider delaying travel. If you must travel, drive with extreme
caution. Leave plenty of room between you and the motorist ahead of
you, and allow extra time to reach your destination. Avoid sudden
braking or acceleration, and be especially cautious on hills or when
making turns.
