It’s still snowing in the Great Lakes after more than 5 feet fell over the holiday weekend and snarled travel, stranded motorists and buried homes. A short-lived break is coming before several inches of more snow and a blast of bone-chilling air arrive.

But first, an additional 1 foot of snow is possible through Tuesday in some of the same areas of the Great Lakes already blasted over the weekend as the current lake-effect snow event continues.

Snowfall totals have surpassed 5 feet in some areas, including Castorland, Copenhagen and Barnes Corners in northern New York, which have each received 69.5 inches. Lake-effect snow warnings remain in effect for parts of northeastern Ohio, northwestern Pennsylvania and southwestern New York.
