Dear Emergency Managers and other partners,

As a storm system approaches the region, light snow will develop very late tonight through around sunrise Sunday.  The precipitation will change to sleet and freezing rain Sunday morning after sunrise, before ending as plain rain showers during the day on Sunday afternoon.  Areas north of I-90 may see a wintry mix linger into the evening hours, especially over the higher terrain.  The combination of snow, sleet, and freezing rain will lead to hazardous travel conditions.  A Winter Weather Advisory has been expanded to all of eastern New York and western New England.

In addition, southeasterly winds will gust to around 50 mph Sunday morning into the afternoon over portions of the southern Greens, northern/central Taconics, Berkshires, and western Adirondacks.  These winds may bring down trees, limbs, and powerlines, leading to isolated power outages.  A Wind Advisory has been issued for these areas.
