Dear Emergency Managers and other partners,

Mild temperatures and periods of rain are expected late Sunday night into
Tuesday.  The rain may begin as a wintry mix of sleet and freezing rain for
the southern Adirondacks Sunday night, with ice accretion less than a tenth
of an inch expected (see graphic below).  Roads may briefly become
slippery.  Temperatures are expected to rise above freezing by Monday
morning.

Around 0.50 to 1.50" rain is expected across eastern New York and western
New England Sunday night into Tuesday (see expected rainfall graphic
below).  The rain and mild temperatures will likely result in some melting
of the snowpack and runoff, which will result in river rises.  Widespread
flooding is not expected at this time, but some rivers may reach action
stage and approach minor flood stage.  Some nuisance flooding is possible
in urban and flood prone areas, especially where snow banks block storm
drains.
