Local Update...
   Heavy Snow For The Region Overnight...
     National Weather Service Doppler radar has indicated a line of rain snow mix, rapidly changing to heavy snow across Northeastern New York. This area of snow will moves east-southeast, and into Northwestern between 11:30PM and 12:30AM. Precipitation may briefly start as plain rain across the Champlain Valley, as temperatures are well above freezing. Any rain will rapidly change to a brief period of heavy snow. Visibilities will likely fall to under a quarter mile for up to 30 Minutes. Total snow accumulations will be a Dusting - 2 inches. This line of heavy snow will move into the Western Slopes of the Green Mountains between 12:30AM and 2AM, and into Eastern Vermont between 2AM and 4AM. Accumulations in these area will also be in the Dusting - 2 inch range, with locally higher amounts along the western slopes of the green mountains. If your out traveling prepare for rapidly changing road conditions. Temperatures will be falling rapidly behind this snow, which is associated with an arctic front. Temperatures will begin to plummet after the snow moves through, flash freezing will likely occur, making the roads extremely slick. Of additional concern is brief wind gusts of up to 40MPH will follow the precipitation, making the snow blow around, and help aid in dropping temperatures rapidly. Stay tuned for any further updates.
