SYNOPSIS... Lake effect snow continues across areas southeast of Lake Erie

Lake effect snow bands will move north overnight through early Wednesday,
bringing a quick burst of snow and minor accumulations to areas east and

periods of snow, blowing snow, and possibly a few snow squalls. The
greatest accumulations will be east of Lake Erie and Lake Ontario as lake
