Oswego County is bracing for significant snowfall as the National Weather Service has issued a Lake Effect Snow Warning, effective until Tuesday (February 11) at 4 a.m. Residents should prepare for challenging travel conditions, with the heaviest snow expected tonight, potentially affecting the evening commute.
The warning predicts that Oswego County could see snow accumulations ranging from eight to 16 inches before the storm system moves out. According to Syracuse.com, the weather service has warned of difficult travel conditions due to snow-covered roads and poor visibility.
