A windy low-pressure system moving into the Northeast has also brought renewed lake-effect snow squalls, with totals measured in feet in some locations over Thanksgiving weekend.

Happens now: The radar below shows where the low pressure area is currently bringing snow and gusty winds to the Great Lakes and Northeast.

The heaviest snow is in the Great Lakes snowbelts, but this morning we also saw snowfall extending as far east as the Interstate 95 corridor in New England. This includes the Boston, Hartford and Providence metropolitan areas.

Brief bursts of heavier snow have triggered intermittent snow squall warnings in parts of the Northeast this morning, including parts of Pennsylvania, New Jersey and New York.

Winter storm and blizzard warnings are in effect: The National Weather Service has issued several winter weather advisories for the Great Lakes and Interior Northeast. These warnings apply to both snow associated with the storm system itself and lake effect snow that has formed as a result of its passage.

This includes blizzard warnings issued for Erie, Pennsylvania, as well as higher elevations in the central Appalachians.

Travel to areas where these blizzard warnings are in effect, as well as other locations where winter storm warnings and lake effect snow warnings are in effect, should be avoided.

The Great Lakes snowbelts will see the heaviest additional snowfall through Friday. Below you can see how much additional snow is expected.

Strong winds are expected elsewhere today: Wind warnings have been issued for greater portions of the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic, including New York City to Philadelphia and Washington, DC

While these cities are not expected to experience significant snowfall, strong winds from this storm could gust up to 50 mph today. This could break some branches, cause sporadic power outages, or cause combat delays.

Feet snow last weekend: The first truly extensive lake snow event of the season over the holiday weekend dropped over 5 feet of snow in several locations in northeastern Ohio and northwestern Pennsylvania, parts of southwestern and northern New York state, and Ontario, Canada.

State leaders included Castorland, New York (65.9 inches); Saybrook, Ohio (61.2 inches); Girard, Pennsylvania (59.3 inches); Otsego Lake, Michigan (46.7 inches); and Echo Bay, Ontario (136 cm or 53.5 inches).

In Erie, Pennsylvania, only 0.1 inches of snow fell this season through Thanksgiving. Then, 22.6 inches of snow fell on Black Friday alone, their record heaviest snowfall in a calendar day.

Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan endured its longest wait ever for the season’s first measurable snow, arriving over a month later than average on November 25th. But then they were nearly buried by 42 inches of snow in the last six days of November, three times the monthly average.

In western New York, the highest snow totals were in southern Chautauqua and Cattaraugus counties, where two locations saw 53 to 54 inches. However, the Buffalo Metro “Southtowns” were also hit with 1 to 3 feet of snow. That included Orchard Park, where the NFL’s Buffalo Bills hosted the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday night after both parking lots and the stadium had to be cleared.
