Winter Weather Advisory in Effect for Wayne County and Surrounding Areas

The advisory, issued early Friday morning, warns of lake effect snow with additional accumulations of up to 2 inches in areas experiencing the most persistent snowfall.

A Winter Weather Advisory remains in effect for Wayne County and several neighboring areas until 10 a.m. Friday, according to the National Weather Service (NWS) in Buffalo.

The advisory, issued early Friday morning, warns of lake effect snow with additional accumulations of up to 2 inches in areas experiencing the most persistent snowfall. The affected counties include Niagara, Orleans, Monroe, Wayne, and Northern Cayuga.

Motorists are advised to use caution while driving, as slippery, snow-covered roads could impact the morning commute. The NWS encourages residents to slow down and remain alert, particularly on stairs, sidewalks, and driveways, which may be icy and increase the risk of slips and falls.

The advisory is expected to expire by mid-morning as conditions improve. Residents should continue to monitor weather updates and allow extra travel time as needed.
