A low pressure system will be moving across the Ohio Valley and through the Northeast. We will be seeing this system be moving pretty quickly, but accumulations will be on the increase as we see a cold front moving southeast from Canada. This front will bring cold air right up against the precipitation. Much like how a cold front ignites heavy precipitation in the summertime, snowfall will increase right up against the front. Because we don't know how much influence this front will have on the precipitation, accumulations might be a little heavier than what we have shown right now.

Hi Andrew.This matches what my local forecaters are predicting.They said it all depends how quickly the cold front can come through.
Hi Andrew. I live in central New York in New Hartford,(Just south of Utica) I was wondering what you expect for my area in terms of snow. I'm at 700 feet. Local forecasters are calling for mostly rain with maybe just a slushy inch. Your thoughtS?
Anonymous: from experience, it seems that local meteorologists are typically too conservative wih snowfall amounts. Depending on the cutoff and strength of the arctic cold front, I would say 1-5 inches. It really depends.
Thanks Andrew, love this site, keep up the good work.
