Kemptville yesterday in 10cm of snow

Lake Snows slide south


The heavy lake effect snows that had closed the 401 yesterday and gave over 10cm (4 inches) of snow to Kemptville, have slipped south of the border and are centered over southern Jefferson and northern Oswego Counties. The band, according to National Weather Service spotters, has dumped over 2 feet of snow on Redfield and other towns in the county today alone. Totals will reach over 3 feet under the most persistent bands. Travel is not advised within the band area including Interstate 81 south of Watertown and north of Syracuse. Warnings are out for the entire Lake Ontario shoreline on the US side.
