Band of heavy lake effect snow headed into Genesee County, weather service says

By Howard B. Owens

A band of lake effect snow is continuing to gradually drift northward, bringing more heavy snow to Genesee County.

The snowfall rate in this band is one to two inches per hour or more. Snow will accumulate on roadways very quickly, according to the National Weather Service.

The lake effect warning is in effect through this evening.

We've been notified of one weather-related cancellation in the county. Pembroke High School's play schedule for tonight is cancelled. A second show may be added for Saturday.

John Kennedy School, closed for the past two days because of power issues and heating issues, will be open again tomorrow.

Please send any extra blankets to Port Charlotte!! It's dipping to 53-degrees this morning. Glad this isn't a touch-screen I'm typing this with - otherwise, you'd see how much I'm shivering! :) :)
