*A Lake-Effect Snow Warning is in effect through 7 a.m. Wednesday for southern Erie, Wyoming, Cattaraugus and Chautauqua counties.*
While snow will stay in the Southern Tier for the first part of the day, expect some lake-effect to impact Buffalo and spots north during the afternoon. This will lead to slick spots and several inches of accumulation.
Regardless if you see snow or not, plan on wind chills in the single digits and teens through early Wednesday.
