Heavy snow to hit Orleans this afternoon
The National Weather Service has issued a special weather statement for Orleans, Genesee, Niagara and northern Erie counties, saying a lake-effect snow band will dump very heavy snow this afternoon.
In Orleans the area effect will be mostly in the Medina and Lyndonville areas of western Orleans, and could spread to Albion.
“This lake effect snow band is producing heavy snow at the rate of 1 to 2 inches per hour,” the Weather Service said. “These snowfall rates will increase to 2 to 3 inches per hour by 4 p.m.”
The Alabama Full Gospel Fellowship in Medina announced it is canceling its youth and adult services for tonight.
Yates Town Court will not be holding court tonight. Anyone who was scheduled for court will receive notice of a new court date.
