2:05pm despite sounding like a broken record, once more we are talking about the firm grip of a cold air mass that has been with us since the New Year. The forecast calls for the cold air to continue as a series of weak low pressure systems comming in from central Canada will progreesively reinforce the cold air already in place. One of these weak low pressure systems will be the next weather maker over the Northeast this weekend. A clipper type system will move in to the Northeast by way of the Great Lakes on Saturday, this will initiate some Lake Enhanced Snow with accumulations ranging between 2-4 inches in Buffalo. This weak system will also produce some light snow and flurries for the rest of the region through Sunday with little to no snow accumulations expected. Behind this system a reinforcing shot of arctic air will keep our temperatures where they have been if not slightly colder. Looking ahead into next week, I am monitoring the potential for a disruptive storm system that could affect the region on Tuesday and Wednesday with a mixed bag of precipitation. It is too early to indicate the exact details of this storm's impact on the region; more information will be available as the projected time frame approaches.
