Snow Ice National Weather Service Forecasts 01132017

The map above shows the extent of Winter Storm Watches as well as Flood Watches that are up as of 2pm today. Since this is a big travel holiday weekend and a lot of you may be headed to ski country, bear in mind that Friday night into Saturday travel will be difficult between the rain over us and the snow and ice as you head north and west or north and east.

SNOW ICE FORECAST THROUGH 7PM SATURDAY

You will be running into increasing icing later Friday night and early Saturday as you go northward so bear this in mind when planning travel times. Also temperatures will be at their warmest Friday into Friday night and then fall rapidly on Saturday into Sunday morning. Temperatures this weekend will be very cold across upstate NY and New England.

With regards to any local icing issues, it appears that the greatest risk would be for Northwest New Jersey and the Hudson Valley and Connecticut north of Route 84 during the early morning hours before daybreak. There may not be enough time to cause anything significant but ice is ice and beware that this could cause slippery travel Also any standing moisture will freeze in these areas during the day Saturday as temperatures fall through the 30s and into the 20s rather quickly.
