TONIGHT: A very weak system will skim by the area with very light snow - most areas well under an inch. However, *patchy freezing drizzle could also occur* (especially Wyoming Valley to Poconos-Catskills), so exercise caution if traveling overnight-early Sunday as there could be slick spots on untreated surfaces.

LOOKING AHEAD: A Winter Storm Watch has been issued for most of the area Monday-Tuesday; see our briefing by clicking on the "book" icon at https://www.weather.gov/bgm/briefingMain.

Our first stab at forecast snow and ice amounts is shown in the graphic here; being still a couple days out *expect that there will be adjustments* as things become clearer. Main period of concern is Monday night into Tuesday. See the briefing or www.weather.gov/bgm for more details.

[Posted 5:50 AM Sun 01/31/21]: A strong winter storm system will affect our area in two rounds beginning later today, as light to moderate snow spreads across Pennsylvania and into the Southern Tier of NY. Heavier snow will move into NE PA on Monday and spread northwest into parts of New York through Tuesday. The NW progress of the heavier snow band is still a little uncertain, but the heaviest snow looks to affect NE PA. This graphic shows the combined total from both "rounds".

It's a complicated scenario, and various Watches, Advisories, and Warnings are in effect. For more details, see our Event Briefing at:

For the Twin Tiers and Finger Lakes, there is still quite a bit of uncertainty as a slight shift in track could cause significant differences in snowfall totals.

Not our meme. But the message is right on point.
Slow down out there. Be safe.

Major winter storm will pound the northeast early next week dropping possibly 6-12 inches of snow. At least traffic will not be a problem. Then midweek we get another storm followed by a weekend event to pile on even more. Some spots could end up with 2 feet of snow by the end of next week!
