Weather: Lake effect snow warning through midnight tomorrow

By Howard B. Owens

Between six to 12 inches of snow could fall on Genesee County over the next 30 hours, the National Weather Service reports.

But the Buffalo office has issued a lake effect snow warning that covers Genesee, Niagara and Orleans counties.

Winds are expected to blow at 15 to 30 mph.

In places, visibility will be cut to a half mile at times.

Difficult driving conditions are expected with blowing and drifting snow.

This evening, highway workers have been heard on the radio discussing the possibility of roadways icing over quickly as the sun sets.

LOL Isnt there like 3 cemetaries abutting each other there? Looks like Batavia has itself a little necropolis going. If my historical inquires have been accurate the cemetary that used to be out by West Main, behind the Wilson Farms Express there was even incorporated into this complex because of flooding issues, and being so close to the Tonowanda Crk.

That one pic with the shed w blue paint job is a bit striking, having the little splash of bright color in the almost monochromatic color of cemetaries in winter.
