Storm Update 7am.....

The snow had started in our area this morning well in advance of the main storm center over Kentucky. The latest weather models suggest that the heaviest snow may stay just south of the St. Lawrence River. Certainly the warnings suggest this with Winter Storm Warnings in effect from the Ohio Valley to New England including all of upstate New York. The snow that has started will continue into tomorrow morning.

Total storm accumulations are forecast to be between 5-15cm for Ottawa and Montreal with 15-20cm for North Grenville, the Seaway and 25-35cm for northern New York and New England. Winds will increase overnight tonight causing blowing and drifting snow. Travel will be slow and slippery for the next 24-36 hours. The worst weather will be this evening into the overnight period.
