Syracuse, New York
As you can see, this is not an Off the Grid. Unfortunately the series is no more. Instead, we will continue with a forecast for Syracuse today and a road trip from Pensacola to Syracuse. So let's forecast.
At 1154AM, ET, Syracuse was reporting snow, fog and a temperature of 21 degrees. Streams of snow were banding off of Lake Ontario through Syracuse and south towards Ithaca and Binghamton. This is all associated with a broad area of low pressure over the Maritimes of Canada which is directing northwesterly flow over the still comparably warm Great Lakes.
This snowy flow is expected to continue through most of the day tomorrow when some ridging will be able to work it to a southerly flow or perhaps no overriding flow at all, which will cut off the flurry activity on Friday. Southerly flow will surely pick up eventually over Syracuse, as a fairly strong clipper will develop over the Great Lakes and begin drifting east. Some snow will likely pick up again late in the day for Syracuse, though it will by based on the synoptics of the system, rather than the lakes, which should allay snow fall totals early in the weekend.

The models are in disagreement on the temperatures, but almost everybody had the same thinking on the highs, trending towards warmer guidance. Here is a look at the radar and the flurries across the area.
