00:00I want to take a zoomed in look at radar and clouds to start things off because one thing I
00:03want to point out that might have been a little hard to see on the big map, we have some areas
00:07of darker blue here. That indicates some heavier snowfall. Snow squalls are a concern and snowfall
00:14rates that are going to be pretty impressive. That could impact some things as well at times.
00:20So overall, tonight is the main event for the snow squall risk. Those of you in the darkest blue
00:24buffalo down through eastern portions of the Cleveland metro and down into West Virginia,
00:29that's where the biggest risk is. So especially if you are traveling in this area, driving especially,
00:35if you don't have to be on the roads, don't. But if you absolutely have to, just be prepared
00:40for those rapid drops in visibility. It's certainly possible with the wind that we're talking about.
00:46Anywhere from 35 to up to 60 mile per hour gusts. One thing to keep in mind with this map also along
00:51the east coast, it really is tomorrow that you get the action from the wind. And even if you don't have
00:57snow squalls, this is the kind of wind that causes other problems. One, airport delays. We are
01:02expecting a lot of them, especially high traffic airports along the east coast. It's going to cause
01:07some headaches. But then also, wind like this, with the kind of temperatures we're talking about,
01:12it knocks your acupuncture, the real food temperatures way down. And of course, wind is
01:15not the only factor that goes into that equation, but it certainly is going to be one of the
01:20higher factors as far as the impact for this weekend on the temperatures. We'll talk about that in a
01:27details about the snow first. Futurator, we're pressing play here. We've continued to work our
01:34way into the northeast. Somewhere like New York, we're going to see the snow falling by the time
01:37we get to 1030. It starts before that, but you're really in it by 1030. Boston, we've seen already
01:42some ocean effect snow, kind of like lake effect, but the body of water nearest Boston is the ocean
01:48rather than a lake. That is not the main event. That's just kind of your precursor to
01:53the heavier snow that's going to move in overnight. And really, as we go through the day Saturday,
01:59it's New England that continues to see the snow. Yes, at 5 a.m. it's still working its way out of
02:03New York, but throughout the afternoon, I mean, Massachusetts, you're going to be one of the
02:08highlights here for the biggest impact. Though, the kind of snow that you just saw in that video,
02:13that's not what we're talking about. It's not crazy snow totals, but it's still enough that it can cause
02:19some issues. The snow squall is the main one, but still slick spots on roads. We always end up seeing
02:25crashes, even when it's one to three inches of snow. So, just your reminder, take it slow. There
02:30could still be slick spots. Here's the details. I mentioned the one to three. That's what most of
02:34us are getting, but there are a few areas in darker blue, downwind of the lakes, into West Virginia,
02:39some portions of Ohio where we've already had the four-plus-inch reports, and then over into
02:44Massachusetts. That's where we're looking at three to six, up to our accurate local storm max
02:47of 10 inches of snow. Boston itself, we have you down for one to three. However, when we look at
02:53the snowfall amount probabilities, 24 percent, three to six, that means it is not out of the question.
02:59Who's most likely to see that, though? Well, zoom in on the map here, and it's suburbs of Boston's
03:04areas a little further south and along the coast.
