pulls away tonight, although cold air arriving in the wake of the
storm will lead to heavy lake effect snowfall downwind of Lakes
Erie and Ontario. Elevation snowfall is also expected in the
Appalachians through tomorrow.

The next Storm Summary will be issued by the Weather Prediction
Center at 1000 AM EST. Please refer to your local National Weather
Service office for additional information on this event.
