NWS Albany - Light icing in the southern Adirondacks Sunday night then rain and snow melt Monday and Tuesday - 430 PM Sunday, December 8
by ALB Stormreport - NOAA Service Account 08 Dec '19

08 Dec '19

**** The information in this email pertains to the following areas only:**** *- In Connecticut: Litchfield County* *- In Massachusetts: Berkshire County* *- In Vermont: Bennington & Windham Counties* *- In New York: Albany, Columbia, Dutchess, Fulton, Hamilton, Herkimer, Montgomery, Greene, Rensselaer, Saratoga, Schenectady, Schoharie, Ulster, Warren and Washington Counties* Dear Emergency Managers and Other Partners, A change in the weather pattern will bring a period of milder, wet weather to our area tonight through Tuesday. Some precipitation in the form of light freezing rain or sleet will cause light icing over the southern Adirondacks tonight into early Monday morning. Temperatures will rise into the mid 40s to mid 50s in most areas Monday afternoon through Monday night with periods of rain likely. Rainfall totals across the area will vary from around 0.25 inches to 1.5 inches by Tuesday afternoon. The warmer weather and rain will cause the existing snow pack to partially melt by early Tuesday. The rain and melting snow will cause minor flooding in areas of poor drainage, and will also result in significant rises on area rivers. The most likely outcome along the rivers will be for many locations to approach minor flood stage by Tuesday afternoon, with a few locations possibly reaching minor flood stage. The extent of flooding will depend on how much rain falls and how rapidly the snow melts and this will need to be monitored closely over the next 48 hours. Colder air will arrive late Tuesday and Tuesday night, possibly changing the rain over to a period of light snow before ending. Some light accumulations and a rapid freeze-up may occur Tuesday evening resulting in areas of hazardous travel. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us via: 1.

NWS Albany - Widespread Rain Tonight into Tuesday and Southern Adirondack Freezing Rain Monday Morning - 600 AM Sunday, December 8
by ALB Stormreport - NOAA Service Account 08 Dec '19

08 Dec '19

**** The information in this email pertains to the following areas only:**** *- In Connecticut: Litchfield County* *- In Massachusetts: Berkshire County* *- In Vermont: Bennington & Windham Counties* *- In New York: Albany, Columbia, Dutchess, Fulton, Hamilton, Herkimer, Montgomery, Greene, Rensselaer, Saratoga, Schenectady, Schoharie, Ulster, Warren and Washington Counties* Dear Emergency Managers and Other Partners, Mild temperatures and periods of rain are expected late tonight into Tuesday. The rain may begin as a wintry mix of sleet and freezing rain/drizzle for the southern Adirondacks tonight, with ice accretion less than a tenth of an inch expected (see ice graphic below). Roads may briefly become slippery Monday morning there. Temperatures are expected to rise above freezing later Monday morning. Around 0.50 to 1.70" rain is expected across eastern New York and western New England Sunday night into Tuesday (see expected rainfall graphic below). Wind and mild temperatures will likely result in some melting of the snowpack and runoff, which combined with runoff from the rainfall, will result in river rises. Widespread flooding is not expected at this time, but some rivers may reach flood stage. Some nuisance flooding is possible in urban and flood prone areas, especially where snow banks block storm drains. Rain is forecast to change back to snow Tuesday evening and some snow accumulation is expected Tuesday night. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us via: 1.
