Shue, the live radar shows snow squall activity along the south east shore of lakes Erie and Ontario. You best have some California snow tires on the truck.

Gary, I live on Irondequoit Bay at the north end. McMillan's is about 9 miles south of me on the south end of the bay.

Hate to tell you this, I woke up to 4 inches of new snow this morning. You're going to need more than a windbreaker. I'm looking out at Lake Ontario right now as I type this - more squall clouds out there. Stop by Walmart and buy some boots!!! Actually the ground isn't quite cold enough for this stuff to stick around too long. We'll get 2-5 inches every day for the next few days (all lake flakes) and by the time you get here, it may all be melted or just an an inch or so on the ground. Here on the Southeast side of Lake Ontario, we pretty much don't see the grass from Nov-March.

I will be down at McMillan this weekend picking up my jetski - when do yout think you'll be in town?

Be careful coming through the Lake Erie/Lake Ontario corridor (between Erie PA and Buffalo) - when the winds are right, the lake flakes can drop 1 foot/hour......I recommend not coming through there at night over the next couple of days - the winds are right across the lakes....

Good luck.

Schue - still squalling here.

This is the shot out my back window today - typically we're looking right at Lake Ontario.

Today, the gray/white is all snow & squall clouds.
