Light snow will continue to spread over the North Country this morning with snow showers ending early this evening and a high around 25 degrees, according to the National Weather Service.

A winter weather advisory is in effect from 6 a.m. until 11 p.m. on Wednesday as three to six inches of snow is expected in St. Lawrence County, according to the National Weather Service.
