BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) - A sprawling winter storm that canceled flights and coated roads across much of the country was expected to dump up to a foot of snow on parts of New York state starting Saturday.
Snow was falling from Buffalo to New York City on Saturday afternoon as the storm tracked across the state.
Parts of northern New York directly east of Lake Ontario were forecast to get up to a foot of snow by Monday morning, as were some towns near Lake Erie, south of Buffalo, according to the National Weather Service.
Forecasters say the New York City area could end up with several inches of snow.
Areas north in the Hudson Valley could get 6 inches of snow.
