JRWeather WINTER STORM WARNING
     JRWeather Continues a Winter Storm Warning For All Of Vermont, and All Of Northern New York Until 11AM Monday.

     Low pressure currently over the Great Lakes region, and a developing low pressure system near the Delmarva peninsula, will result in continued moderate to heavy snow. Snow will continue to be moderate to heavy at times before tapering off by Monday morning. Total snow accumulations will range from 5-10 inches across much of the area, with 10-15 inches across the spine of the green mountains, and the Northern Adirondack mountains. Also as this storm rapidly intensifies it will bring winds in the 10-20MPH range with strong gusts up to 35MPH. These winds will aid in blowing and drifting snow, helping to reduce visibilities and cause further travel problems.

     Snow will taper off by Monday morning, Thus the Warning will end at 11AM when additional snow will be minimal if any at all. Upslope regions though will likely see continued light snow accumulations throughout the day Monday. A Winter Storm Warning means severe Winter Storm conditions are expected, in this case, significant heavy snow, and blowing snow, is highly expected or occurring. Stay tuned for further updates.
