Some sloppy winter weather is headed our way today in Western New York, and that has led the National Weather Service to issue a Winter Weather Advisory for parts of Western New York today. We could see a mix of snow, sleet, freezing rain, and rain today as the day progresses.

Winter Weather Advisory In Place For Western New York

The National Weather Service in Buffalo has issued a Winter Weather Advisory for Chautauqua, Cattaraugus, and Allegany from 7 am until 4 pm today. There is a chance of freezing rain, with the biggest issue being ice forming on trees and power lines.
