Accumulating snow likely through tonight across northwestern PA (Video)

A clipper-type storm will move through the Great Lakes today. Snow will spread eastward across the area this morning and persist through the afternoon. Most locations will pick up 2 to 4 inches of snow today, however slightly higher amounts are possible across Erie county where some lake enhancement could boost the snowfall totals. Highs today will be in the low 20s.

Stead snow will continue into this evening, then move to our east. Scattered lake effect snow showers are possible late tonight as the flow turn back to the west-northwest behind the clipper. Lows tonight will fall to the low teens.

Tuesday will be mostly cloudy in the morning with a few lingering lake effect snow showers. But, clouds will quickly fill back in by mid day as another clipper approaches from the west. More snow is expected to develop during the afternoon with additional light accumulations expected. Highs on Tuesday will be in the mid 20s.

Snow is likely Tuesday night as the clipper passes just to our north. Additional accumulation is likely. Lows will be in the upper teens.

The snow will finally wind down on Wednesday as high pressure builds across the area. High temperatures on Wednesday will climb to the mid to upper 20s.
