The National Weather Service (NWS) confirmed that the lake effect snow, which has coated parts of Wayne, Cayuga, and Onondaga counties, will diminish by this afternoon. After it does—focus will shift to an areawide snowfall, which is expected to impact the Finger Lakes beginning Wednesday night into Thursday.
