Wintry Mix Into Monday, Then Warmer Temps on Tap

Print Story | Email Story
Mother Nature couldn't quite decide what to gift us with this weekend, so she decided to give us a little bit of everything: freezing rain, sleet, snow. 
 
The National Weather Service has posted a winter weather advisory for Sunday and into Monday morning. 
 
This mixed precipitation will be coming down over the Berkshires on Sunday afternoon and then switching over to snow, mainly in the upper regions. Total snow and sleet accumulations of one to two inches are expected, except 2 to 4 inches are possible over the Berkshires, Northern Taconics, and eastern Catskills. Ice accumulations of a coating to around one-10th of an inch. Some slightly higher ice accumulations are possible at elevations greater than 1,500 feet such as the eastern Catskills.
 
When will it end? Right now, it's looking to finish up by 4 a.m. on Monday but that could still mean a slippery drive in the morning. Roads may be hazardous, especially early in the morning. 
 
Accuweather is predicting temperatures will remain in the 30s, though they may hover around freezing, into Monday. We could see a few snow showers on Monday and then a dip into the 20s on Tuesday. 


Then it looks like we're on track for another week of relative quiet weather. We had a white Thanksgiving, but as Christmas approaches, it doesn't look good for a white one of those. Weather.com defines a "white Christmas" as "1 inch of snow on the ground on the morning of Dec. 25" and they think our chances are in the "possible" range. 

The long-range forecast? Snow showers from Dec. 23-27. We shall see!
