A Winter Weather Advisory is in effect until 1 p.m. today in Orleans County, the National Weather Service in Buffalo announced.

There will be more lake-effect snow with 1 to 2 more inches in the most persistent lake snows, the Weather Service said.

“Plan on slippery road conditions,” the Weather Service said. “Areas of blowing snow could also reduce visibility. If traveling, be prepared for rapidly changing road conditions and

visibilities.”

Today will reach a high of 20 degrees with an overnight low of 17. On Sunday it will be mostly cloudy with a high near 27.
