...SNOW SHOWERS AND SQUALLS LIKELY TO IMPACT TRAVEL TODAY...
An arctic cold front will push through the area from north to
south later this morning and into the afternoon hours. Along and
behind this cold front numerous snow showers and snow squalls are
likely to develop. Visibilities may briefly drop to one-quarter
mile or less in near whiteout conditions as these squalls move
through. Roadways could initially become wet or slushy, but will
then quickly freeze, becoming icy and snow covered. The best chance
to see these heavier snow showers and squalls will be from about
10 AM to 3 PM today. Total daytime snow accumulations of 1 to 3
inches are expected. Please stay advised of the latest weather
conditions and forecasts if traveling today. Motorists should
exercise caution and be prepared to encounter changeable
conditions.
Northwest winds will also increase between 15-25 mph with gusts
up to 40 mph, creating areas of blowing snow and hazardous
conditions for high profile vehicles. Temperatures fall into the
20s by late afternoon.

...Snow Squalls Expected Today Across The North Country...
Snow squalls are expected across northern New York during the mid
to late morning hours today and from midday to mid afternoon
across much of Vermont. Affected locations will see rapidly
changing weather and road conditions...with brief heavy snow and
gusty winds. A quick snow accumulation of 1 or 2 inches is
possible along with near zero visibilities.
Precautionary/Preparedness Actions...
Be prepared for areas of blowing and drifting snow. This could lead
to temporary whiteout conditions and the potential for dangerous
driving conditions. Icy roads are also expected. If you are
traveling and encounter adverse winter driving conditions...reduce
speed and make sure headlights are on.

...A FEW VERY LOCALIZED SNOW SQUALLS ARE POSSIBLE BETWEEN 3 AND 8
PM THIS EVENING...
Patches of black ice may continue to result in slippery spots
early this morning...so motorists are urged to drive with extra
caution.
The main concern will turn to the potential for a few snow squalls
across southern New England roughly between 3 and 8 pm this
evening. The greatest threat will be along the east slopes of the
Berkshires...but very localized snow squalls are possible across
the entire region. Any snow squall that is able to develop will
bring the potential for very brief heavy snow, whiteout
conditions, strong winds, and slippery roads.
While snow squalls are not expected to be widespread across our
region...they have the potential to result in very localized
hazardous travel so motorists should be prepared.
