Update on Our Thanksgiving Storm

NECN snow estimate for noon on Wednesday, 11/25
The computer models have been all over the place for the past week, but at this point (just one day out, of course) there is consensus. Here's all you really need to know about the upcoming weather: there is a huge storm headed our way, which will bring us primarily RAIN from Tuesday evening after dusk through much of Wednesday. And by rain, I mean as much as 3" of torrential rain (particularly on Wednesday) with high winds, including gusts of 60 mph, along with isolated power outages. Meanwhile, 6-12 inches of snow may accumulate in western parts of New York, PA, northern New England and the Adirondacks - but the forecast is not predicting snow in Amherst and the surrounding area. Conditions will improve dramatically from late Wednesday afternoon and on. Best traveling times are Tuesday until nightfall and late in the day on Wednesday. Expect delays through much of Wednesday.
