A spring storm could dump three-six inches of wet snow on the Rochester area beginning early Friday.
During this time forecasters say the roads could become severely snow covered with low visibility, and the weight of the snow could lead to downed branches, trees and possible power outages.
Forecasters say the precipitation will begin as rain around 3 a.m. on Friday, but won't turn over to snow till around 11 p.m. when temps will hover in the mid-30s.
The snow event is only expected to last a few hours before it pauses and turns to all rain around 4 a.m. on Saturday. The rain will continue through the mid-morning. The rest of the day will remain cloudy and cool with a high of 51.
Sunday will be drier but still cool with a high of 56.
Accuweather maps show Rochester right on the edge of the snow/rain line, however it's best to over rather than under prepared.
