Dear Emergency Managers and other partners,

A slow-developing storm system will bring a mix of snow, sleet and freezing rain to much of the area Monday into Tuesday.

• Snow with a possible a wintry mix expected north of I-90 Monday into Tuesday, with as much as 5 to 11 inches of snow possible in the western/southern Adirondacks and western Mohawk Valley.

• South of I-90 accumulations of snow and/or ice will be lighter, but falling temperatures with wintry precipitation could cause hazardous travel conditions for the Tuesday morning commute.

Winter Storm Warning issued for northern Herkimer, Hamilton, and northern Warren Counties from 1 PM Monday to Noon Tuesday.

Winter Storm Watch now includes southern Herkimer, northern Fulton and northern Washington Counties from Monday afternoon through Tuesday morning.

A Winter Weather Advisory may be needed for much of the rest of the eastern New York, southern Vermont, western Massachusetts, and possibly northwest Connecticut.

In addition, temperatures will fall late Monday night and Tuesday, so that moisture on area roadways could freeze, causing slippery conditions regardless of snowfall amounts.

A small shift in the expected track of this storm will shift the rain, snow and ice areas, so stay tuned for further updates.
