Saturday Night Storm Expected to Drop 1-3 Inches Over County| 04:50PM / Saturday, December 10, 2022 | |
*Update for Sunday afternoon from NWS: Snowfall rates may reach between one half and three quarters of an inch per hour by early afternoon in this area. This will increase the potential for hazardous travel conditions through early this afternoon, including snow covered roadways and poor visibilities.
Motorists are urged to use extra caution if traveling over the next few hours, as snowfall intensity increases.*
There is snow in the forecast for this Sunday, but it won't be much more than a couple inches.
Accuweather is calling the precipitation one of two "mini-storms" moving east from the midwest. The first isn't going to touch us but the second, arriving over Saturday night, will bring some snow.
"A general 1-3 inches of snow is in store over part of the interior Northeast from the storm," AccuWeather Senior Meteorologist Brett Anderson said.
The National Weather Service in Albany, N.Y., has issued a winter weather advisory for areas southwest of the Capital District and a hazardous weather outlook for much of centrel New York, the Berkshires and Southern Vermont.
Accumulating snow through Sunday night could create hazardous conditions in some areas and an updated winter weather advisory could be issued between Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning.
Our friends at Greylock Snow Day is predicting 3 to 4 inches for the Berkshires using the North American climate model, which could mean a few inches on the ground Monday morning. It could mean a messy commute and school delays, but GSD says don't bet on a snow day.
Accuweather says higher elevations, including the Berkshire range, could get 3 to 6 inches by Monday morning. Meteorologists are keeping an eye on what Accuweather calls a "monster storm" in the Midwest this week that could bring rain, snow and ice to the Northeast.
