We’ll begin Friday with temperatures in the 30s and a mostly cloudy sky. Our northern areas will wake up to some valley rain and mountain snow coming off Lake Ontario. Those lake effect showers are possible all day and in the northern mountain ranges we could see a couple inches of snow add up by the end of the day. For the rest of us a few light rain showers lower down are possible but many of us will manage to stay dry and mild. Highs will be in the mid 40s with a south wind around 10 to 15 mph and a mostly cloudy sky.Then, all eyes turn to the weekend for a snowstorm. There are still a lot of uncertainties with this next system, even just a day away. While there is little confidence in the exact track of this storm, we can count on at least parts of our area having some impacts. Right now it seems like those furthest east will come away with the most snow. 3 or more inches is possible east of the Green Mountains. If the low swings wide and further out to the Atlantic it’ll be less. If it hugs closer to the coast it will be more and the snow will reach further west into our area.The cut off to who will get a lot of snow to who will get just a little is very tight, adding to the complicated nature of forecasting for this storm. We will be bringing you the latest updates as the next two days progress. For now be ready for anything, including the possibility of heavy snow in the case this storm decides to track closer to us.Snow showers are expected to linger throughout Sunday morning as colder air comes in. You’ll notice the drop in temperatures too, with highs Sunday only in the low 30s. Snow will end by the end of the day and it’ll just be some lingering clouds and the cooler air for the start of the work week on Monday. It’ll be chilly through at least Wednesday before more seasonable temperatures in the upper 30s return for the end of next week.Follow the weather team on Facebook: Tom Messner | Caitlin Napoleoni | Tyler Jankoski | Ben Frechette
