Dear Emergency Managers and other partners,

With a storm system impacting the region, some spotty light freezing rain
and sleet will continue this morning until temperatures fully rise above
freezing by 7 to 10 AM.  Until then, some locally slick travel and
hazardous walking conditions can be expected due to a thin glaze of ice.

Additionally, strong to damaging winds are expected this evening into
Monday evening across much of the region.  A High Wind Warning is in effect
for all of eastern New York & western New England from 7 this evening until
7 PM Monday.  Wind gusts up to 65 mph will result in downed trees &
scattered to widespread power outages.

Also, lake effect snow and blowing snow will impact the western Adirondacks
tonight into Monday.  3 to 5 inches of new snow is expected for this area
and the reduced visibility & snow covered roadways will make for hazardous
travel.

Please refer to attached briefing for more details.
