More Snow for New York - Winter Storm Coming?
12:30 am Friday - It's a go! All of the golden snowball cities are in the target zone for this coming storm which will be hitting all the areas sometime this morning hopefully after the morning rush hour. I hope for the kids sakes that the schools aren't going to make them get up and go to school for a couple of hours just to send them home around noon or so. Save the gas for the school buses and enjoy a 3 day weekend. JMO of course but I'll be pulling for the kids to have a snow day come morning ;)
SNOW MEANS SLOW - Stay safe all and buckle up!
1:30 PM Thurs - It looks like Buffalo and Rochester strike first as far as the WARNINGS go! NOAA (the national weather service) in Buffalo just issued a winter storm warning for both Buffalo and Rochester from around 6am Friday morning until around 10PM Friday night. Keep checking the weather links below for current updates!
Early Morning Update - Just a another heads up to keep an eye on the forecast for your area beginning late Thursday night and possible right thru a good part of Friday. Kids, you may be getting a 3 day weekend ;) You can keep checking the latest storm warnings and watches at the links below.
Watches and Warnings for the Syracuse, Binghamton and other areas
Current Watches and Snow Storm Warnings for the Buffalo, Rochester and Surrounding Areas
Current Snow Storm Warnings and Watches for Albany and Eastern New York State
A good part of New York State is under a winter storm watch right now and most likely could change to warnings for many of the cities in NY. Drive Careful or better yet if the storm does indeed hit stay off the roads because it looks like some windy weather may also be around to blow the snow around. More to come as the storm gets closer. Have a Super Day All!

As an ex-Rochester resident who now resides in the Southern California high desert, I've missed the snow. BUT, we just had a once-in-20-year storm and have 13 inches of the white fluffy stuff on the ground. :) The desert is beautiful with a blanket of snow.
Anyway, go Rochester!
Anon, I can't even imagine how strange it must seem to see all that snow for people not use to it not to mention how awesome it must look ;) Maybe Rochester will manage to slide into first with the storm coming our way early tomorrow :)
Hey patrick! I hear you there...schools should close! I'm thinking about getting my kid when I go to read for her class.. Thing is I'm 8 months pregnant and I dont need to get into any fender-benders or slip and fall.. I'd just assume to stay home. But If they make me go out, I will bring her home with me.
Anyways, happy storm tracking to you.
sabresfan, I don't blame you about not wanting to go out and take a chance. I'm in the same spot :( My mother (78) has a Dr's. appointment at 1:00 that should be kept but I don't want to take a risk with her in the car.
Hopefully all will work out OK and the kids will get home before the heavy stuff starts unless it has already started where you are. Good luck with the soon to be new baby BTW. Big sister must be excited :)
PS - Sorry about the edit but I didn't understand it and PLEASE let me know if there is a link here leading to what you mnetioned.
