The ground is warm, allowing most of the snow to melt on-contact on paved roads.

For many, the lake-effect snowfall was the first measurable wintry precipitation of the fall.

Skies are partly cloudy Tuesday with highs in the upper 30s, and some more flurries flying around in some areas.

Temperatures will gradually increase and reach the low 50s by the weekend.
