.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.
