Snow has become more widespread across Upstate New York and into New England today. As trough of low pressure moves through the region into Saturday, more cold air will wrap into the system allowing for more wintry precipitation.

TIMING

A warm front moving north will continue to cause enough lift on the cool side of the system to push mixed precip across New England through Friday evening. a line from Syracuse to Hartford will see rain mixing with snow and ice. Higher elevations and locations north of Boston and Albany will see all snow.

The heaviest accumulations will happen into the early morning hours of Saturday, before tapering off by late morning. However, the low pressure system will continue to become wrapped up in itself and limit its movement. That means light snow along the surface trough will linger in the Great Lakes and New England through the day on Saturday.

Once this system clears, a coastal low will deepen just off the southeast coast. As it traces north along the northeast coastline, it could bring major snow, wind and coastal impacts into early next week. Stay with WeatherNation for more details on this potential Nor'Easter.

TOTALS

Snow totals will reach 6-8" across the Winter Storm Warning areas, with some isolated higher spots up to a foot. Dangerous driving conditions will stick around through Saturday, so avoid the roads if you can.

Lower elevations will be closer to 1-3", including cities like Boston. However, we could see sleet and freezing rain mixing in and adding to issues here. Icing totals will be around a tenth of an inch in some spots, so be careful for slick roadways. Locations in orange could see sleet, which will accumulate more like snow.

TEMPERATURES

Highs will remain in the 30s through the event and as the next coastal low moves in. This will mean another potential for wintry mix Sunday and early next weeek.
