Buffalo, N.Y. (WBEN) – “This is not the most intense snow that’s every hit the area,” meteorologist Andy Parker tells WBEN Monday afternoon as a band of lake effect snow targets the Buffalo metro and northtowns through the Monday afternoon commute.
“I think the 290 is going to be the worst as far as visibility,” Parker tells WBEN of the potential troubles for the afternoon and early evening commute.
A Winter Weather Advisoryhas now been posted for the metro Buffalo area, all of Erie, Niagara, Orleans, Genesee and Wyoming counties through early Tuesday.
“The snow rate is in the 1 to 2 inch per hour rate,” Parker tells WBEN, and he adds that the plows will be able to keep up with the snowfall.
