00:00 Winter has worked its way on through

00:02 it continuing to hang on rather as

00:04 the snow has been falling today

00:07 across so many locations like

00:09 upstate New York and parts of

00:11 Pennsylvania there and the storm

00:13 will continue to bring accumulating

00:15 snow in the northern Plains

00:16 tonight and into tomorrow.

00:18 So a lot to talk about as we work

00:21 our way all around the northern

00:23 tier of the nation.

00:24 It has been some very intense

00:26 snow in some areas as we've moved

00:29 through the past couple of hours,

00:31 so we're continuing to find that.

00:32 In a few spots,

00:33 especially east of the Great Lakes,

00:35 that's where we've had the most

00:37 snowfall at this point in time,

00:38 and just to show you some of those snowy views.

00:41 How about we take you into Cain,

00:43 Pennsylvania?

00:44 Here it is snow on the side and all around.

00:47 Stop there at the light with the streets.

00:49 A little bit wet as you can tell

00:51 that's from the view from Cain.

00:53 Thankfully not much accumulation

00:54 sticking to the ground there,

00:56 but just keep in mind that there

00:58 could be some icy spots as we

01:00 continue to try to drop those

01:02 numbers through the rest of the night.

01:04 There's plenty of cold air working

01:06 its way on in radar scan showing

01:08 us those showers, those snow showers,

01:10 still streaming their way on East

01:11 and and some locations like you

01:13 can see with this warning we're

01:15 dealing with snow squall warnings,

01:17 so we do have some very intense

01:19 snow coming down in a couple of

01:21 spots and that has led to some

01:23 notable accumulations.

01:24 We've got that on the board.

01:26 Especially as you work your way

01:28 outside off the edge of Lake on

01:30 Lake Erie in Lake Ontario,

01:31 7 plus inches of snow there in a few spots.

01:35 We also have more of that snow

01:37 piling up as you can see through

01:39 some of upstate New York and inch

01:41 and a half there and a 6 1/2 inches.

01:44 So half a foot of snowfall in a few

01:46 locations as we talk about this

01:48 continuing to work its way on through.

01:50 So what happens with those snow

01:52 showers next couple of hours as

01:54 this cold air continues to pull

01:56 and continues to punch its way on in?

01:58 We do get a little bit of banding

02:00 coming in off the Great Lakes,

02:02 but most of the snow lifts

02:03 into the state of Maine,

02:05 so that's where we'll be dealing

02:06 with the most intense snowfall.

02:08 As a storm departs temperatures,

02:09 they continue to topple 27 right now.

02:11 Buffalo 34 in Chicago,

02:12 29 in Minneapolis and 24 in Fargo.

02:14 As we head through tonight,

02:16 you can see more of that snow

02:18 continuing Burlington going down to 2222.

02:20 In Pittsburgh and 23 in Buffalo

02:21 with those snow showers continuing

02:23 where accumulations were at.

02:24 You with a real feel values with those

02:27 strong winds that we've had out there.

02:29 They dip down into the single digits,

02:31 if not teens in a few locations,

02:33 so it's certainly going to feel quite cold.

02:35 If you locations even the single digits

02:37 below zero once you get into the

02:40 higher elevations of the Northeast.

02:41 The afternoon we rebound a bit.

02:43 You'll find that in Buffalo snow

02:45 showers temperatures in the lower 30s.

02:47 We make it to the mid 40s in New York City,

02:50 but look at this off towards the West 37.

02:53 The high in Minneapolis with snow coming in.

02:55 There's a whole new storm system on the board,

02:58 and this one is going to create that snow

03:01 for places like Minneapolis that haven't

03:03 seen much of it this winter 3 to 6 inches.

03:06 There's that 6 to 12 inch band as you

03:08 work your way between Madison and

03:10 Janesville in Southern Wisconsin.

03:12 So watching the storm unfold takes

03:13 some time to organize and it does so

03:16 tomorrow throughout the day into tomorrow night.

03:18 That's when we'll be dealing with that snow,

03:20 then sliding into the Northeast

03:22 and ultimately it'll push into

03:23 the Northeast for Saturday.

03:25 So the weekend will be talking about

03:26 more of that snow as it departs Friday.

03:29 It pushes in with rain and just to

03:31 show you some of those snowfall totals.

03:33 Friday night into Saturday night.

03:35 So this is a Saturday event.

03:36 It'll have some impacts on the state of

03:39 Maine as far as the heaviest snowfall.
