Alerts

Winter weather alerts are in place from Lake Superior to Lake Ontario.

Forecast

The cold front that has passed over the region and this will allow the cold air from Canada to keep generating heavy lake effect snow.  Here is a look at the timing across the northern and eastern Great Lakes.
