I'm still pretty confident in 6-12" across the entire area. There is a chance at some 2" per hour rates in a few hours across WNY.
..DIFFICULT TRAVEL THIS EVENING WITH SNOW COVERED ROADS...
Snow intensity continues to slowly increase early this evening.
Recent snow rates have generally been around a half inch per
hour, but expect rates to increase to about 1 inch per hour for
several hours this evening and overnight. Many area roads are
already snow covered and slick with several accidents. Motorists
should use caution and allow extra time to reach their
destination.
Across the Southern Tier, a wintry mix will also create difficult
travel conditions before a changeover to all snow later this
evening.
