At the same time it will be pretty quiet in Syracuse we're also tracking some minor lake effect snow up in the Tug Hill region. There is a minor weather alert for lake snow but really only impacting travel up on the highest part of the Tug while the rest of the highlighted counties will see little to no impact from snow on travel.

Lake-effect snow is most common near the Great Lakes, but while rare in North Texas, it can happen here too. Lake-effect snow was expected to be possible in areas south and southeast of the larger North Texas lakes, such as Lake Lewisville or Lake Ray Hubbard.

Some of the snow we saw on Wednesday morning was lake-effect snow. Moisture from area lakes met with the cold air and formed bands of snow. We saw lake-effect snow form off of Lewisville, Grapevine and Eagle Mountain Lake.
