    Just a quick hit of wintry weather today and then it’s back to the unseasonably warm pattern that we have been into lately. Lingering lake effect snow showers start to taper this afternoon with increasing sunshine regionally for the afternoon. It’s a beautiful finish to the week Friday with rebounding temperatures. The Saturday weather has been slipping over the past few days. The clouds win out, with a few rain showers from Buffalo northward, and greater coverage to the rain south and east.

Have been tracking these storms from radar and cameras on the NY side of Lake Erie while Matt was seeing the fury close up from Crystal Beach, Ontario. These were moving at around 45 mph with 60+mph gust potential. Not a friendly day on the lake. #News4Buffalo #4WarnWX https://t.co/8JeySDxzc6

Saw the final segment of the #IceBoom towed away today, though there was something leftover from the winter that had been pushed into it, one of the channel markers outside Buffalo. It shows up better in this ReportIt photo from this past Friday. #News4Buffalo #4WarnWX https://t.co/1a3fHetd8D
