Parts of New York are forecasted to get several feet of snow over the weekend.
Parts of New York were hit by a lake-effect snowstorm on Friday, causing white-out conditions for drivers in one of the busiest driving weeks of the year.
Thanksgiving week brought cold temperatures to much of the United States, with areas including the Midwest, parts of the South and New York receiving cold weather and snow amid one of the most highly traveled weeks of the year as winter inches closer.
In New York, a snowstorm struck parts of the northern and western parts of the state near the Great Lakes on Friday, causing potentially hazardous conditions for drivers the day after Thanksgiving, according to local news reports.
The National Weather Service (NWS) wrote in a post on X, formerly Twitter, that “heavy lake-effect snow bands and snow showers have developed downwind of the Great Lakes” and will continue into next week, making travel difficult in some areas.
