Give yourself some extra time if you're heading out
A brief but intense snowfall is hitting the southern tier.
The band of lake effect snow originating from Lake Erie is dumping snowfall amounts as much as 2 cm per hour causing reduced visibilities below 1 km at times on area highways including the 406 through Welland and the QEW between Niagara Falls and Fort Erie.
Total snowfall accumulations up to 5 cm are expected before the snow moves out this morning.
