.AVIATION /06Z TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
The snow shield has pushed through much of the region, with RME
holding onto steady snow until around 07z. Scattered lake effect
snow showers will work their way in from the west tonight, with
ELM/ITH/SYR having a chance to see brief MVFR/Fuel Alt
restrictions. Confidence in heavy showers impacting a terminal 
is too low to include IFR in the TAFs. Conditions should become
prevailing VFR at all terminals tonight with winds picking up 
around sunrise, with 25-30kt gusts expected through the day. A 
band of lake effect snow will slide into the Mohawk Valley, 
where SYR and RME should see restrictions starting this 
afternoon and lasting into the overnight hours. Currently, MVFR 
restrictions are forecast but could fall to IFR and lower if 
heavier snow showers set up over the terminals, but confidence 
is too low at this time to include IFR in the TAFs.


Outlook:

Tuesday afternoon through Tuesday Night...Snow showers become 
more localized as lake effect snow over SYR and RME late on 
Tuesday. With winds staying gusty, blowing snow will also be 
possible.

Wednesday...Mainly VFR.

Thursday and Friday...Mainly VFR; a low chance for spotty 
rain/snow showers.

Friday night into Saturday...A chance for additional rain/snow
showers as a clipper moves through the region; low confidence on
timing.
