A brief period of sleet and or freezing rain will be possible for areas north and west of the Capital District Friday morning, with a light glaze of ice possible. If the confidence in freezing rain increases, then A Winter Weather Advisory will be issued.  

In addition, a period of freezing rain is possible early Sunday morning between midnight and 7AM, over northeastern Hamilton, northern Warren and northern Washington Counties.  
A strong storm system is expected to produce a widespread moderate to locally heavy rainfall event across the region Friday into Sunday. The heaviest rainfall is expected across the southern Adirondacks, Mohawk Valley and Lake George Saratoga regions. There is potential for river flooding in these areas due to the combination of snowmelt and heavy rainfall.  Also, a line of showers, with some thunderstorms possible, will cross the area Sunday morning. These showers may bring a brief period of heavy rainfall and damaging wind gusts. These heavier showers may cause some localized urban and poor drainage flooding on Sunday morning.
