REPORT: Buffalo Is Expected To Get One To Three Feet Of Snow Ahead Of Chiefs-Bills Playoff Game

For the second straight week, the weather could have an impact on the Buffalo Bills home playoff game.

A lake effect snow warning is in place for Erie County through Thursday evening and the area is expected to get one to three feet of snow. The treacherous weather has forced the state of New York to issue a travel ban in Orchard Park, which is the home of Highmark Stadium.

Here are updated forecast snowfall amounts.

This is the additional snowfall that is expected from 1 pm this afternoon through 7 pm Thursday.

This does *not* include what has already occurred.
