Rain switches to snow as gusty winds usher in colder temperatures towards Friday morning, any standing water may create black ice. Little accumulation to start the day but as winds continue to gust, driving within any lake snow will have lowered visibility with blowing and drifting snow. Wind chills will be in the teens and low 20s through the day. Accumulating snows will be across the higher terrain of the Chautauqua Ridge and Cattaraugus county. Areas outside of lake effect won't pick up much snow, including the Metro area, likely receiving only an inch or two. Flakes end on Saturday with chilly temperatures in the lower 30s. A general snow for WNY approaches for Sunday.
