This will be a somewhat wetter snow, thanks to warmer air above the surface and southerly winds. More accumulation is possible Saturday and Sunday as scattered snow showers continue. Snow will be light, but if lake enhanced snow bands develop later Saturday into Sunday, higher amounts of snow can accumulate. Note that there is a great deal of uncertainty regarding placement of potential banding and i it develops. Regardless, full weekend totals could range from 5-7" by the end of it.
