The National Weather Service issued an updated lake effect snow warning for Oswego County on Tuesday at 10:10 p.m., which is in place until Wednesday at 1 p.m.
“Heavy lake effect snow,” the weather service remarks. The most persistent lake snows accumulate an additional 6 to 12 inches of snow. Parts of Interstate 81 will be affected, and travel could occasionally be difficult or impossible.
“With extremely poor visibility and heavy snow cover on the roadways, travel will be extremely challenging. There will be occasions when travel, including parts of Interstate 81, is difficult to impossible,” the weather agency adds. “Think about postponing your trip. If you have to travel, drive very carefully. Give yourself more time to get to your destination and give yourself plenty of space between you and the car in front of you. Steer clear of abrupt acceleration or braking, and exercise extra caution when turning or going up slopes. Until the weather improves, you should remain inside. Wear layers if you must go outside. A bulky coat won’t keep you as warm as multiple layers of clothing. To lower the risk of hypothermia or frostbite, cover any exposed skin. Wearing a hat, scarf, and gloves will prevent you from losing body heat.
