Several rounds of accumulating snow will impact travel across the Northeast and Great Lakes through the weekend.

Several weather disturbances are forecast to bring bursts of snow to the Northeast and Midwest, with accumulations ranging from a dusting to up to three inches in some areas. Motorists are advised to exercise caution, especially on bridges and overpasses, due to the potential for slick conditions.

Snowfall is expected from Friday afternoon through the weekend, affecting regions including the Great Lakes, northern Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and extending into New England states such as Connecticut, Rhode Island, and Massachusetts. Lake effect snow is also anticipated in western Michigan, the Upper Peninsula, and areas around Buffalo, with continued chances of snow along the Northeast seacoast.

As these several disturbances come with it, that means bursts of snow here and there. Some of you could get obviously more than others in other locations. Maybe just, you know, a dusting to two to three inches, but just be careful on the roads. Make sure you know that obviously bridges overpasses freeze first, and things could get very slick out there. We're in the Friday afternoon to Friday evening time frame here, with more up and around the Great Lakes, kind of pushing across this stretch of northern Indiana. And Ohio and even parts of Pennsylvania as well. A chunk of it does come down into parts of Appalachia, and we can maybe see some of that trying to traverse across Pennsylvania. I don't think it's going to be much, but something to watch. That's for sure. Some of these bands with the cold air, they can drift and ultimately bring novelty flakes to some areas, which could hopefully make the kids happy. And then look what's happening as we head into Saturday afternoon to Saturday evening for Connecticut, for Rhode Island, for parts of Massachusetts, whether in West or all the way out towards Boston. We can kind of see that cold air trying to push into Boston a little bit, so that'll be on Saturday going into Sunday. And then for your Sunday time frame, it's just the lake effect spots. Western Michigan, parts of the Upper Peninsula. Here around you know the Tuck Hill Plateau or in round Buffalo. So we'll kind of keep an eye on that. Meanwhile, the seacoast of the Northeast could continue to see some snow there.
