Winter Weather Advisory issued February 18 at 4:11AM EST until February 19 at 1:00AM EST by NWS Buffalo NY

Niagara; Orleans; Monroe; Wayne; Northern Cayuga; Genesee Feb 18, 04:11 AM - Feb 18, 02:00 PM
Severity: Moderate Urgency: Expected

* WHAT...Mixed precipitation expected. Total snow and sleet accumulations of one inch or less. Freezing rain accumulations of a quarter to a half inch. * WHERE...Niagara, Orleans, Monroe, Wayne, Northern Cayuga, and Genesee Counties. The greatest ice accumulations will likely be across portions of Niagara, Orleans, and western Monroe counties. * WHEN...Until 1 AM EST Thursday. * IMPACTS...Power outages and tree damage are possible in some areas due to ice accretion. The wintry mix and freezing rain may result in very slick conditions on untreated surfaces. The hazardous conditions will impact the Wednesday morning and evening commutes. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Ice will more readily accumulate on elevated surfaces. Temperatures near the freezing point combined with the higher mid-February sun angle may help mitigate impacts on area roadways, limiting ice accumulation potential.

Periods of snow, sleet, or freezing rain will result in slippery surfaces and limited visibilities. Slow down and use caution while driving. Be prepared for potential power outages. Submit snow and ice reports through our website or social media.
