Winter storm could drop up to a foot of snow
Despite temperatures on Monday that reached into the 40s, it appears that winter isn’t about to leave central New York quietly.
The National Weather Service in Binghamton issued a winter storm warning for Chenango, Cortland and Otsego counties effective this morning through 6 p.m. Wednesday.
Caused by a low pressure system moving up from Pennsylvania, the storm is expected to bring periods of heavy snow and cold, blustery weather to the region. Temperatures could rise to the mid 30s by this afternoon, causing slushy accumulations and limiting the total measurable snow accumulations.
Colder temperatures will return overnight and the snow will become heavier. The National Weather Service expects the worst part of the storm to occur from Tuesday evening through Wednesday morning. Total accumulations could range from eight to 12 inches. Strong winds are also expected to cause considerable drifting and at times, may cause hazardous white-out conditions.
The snow should to taper off by Wednesday afternoon, with some areas seeing lake effect snow developing into Thursday.
Drivers are advised to use caution on the roadways.
