Ice Storm Alert

Happy Vacation, all you public school folks. You made it.

Unfortunately, we have bad news to kick off the week. We have a Winter Weather Advisory in place for Saturday afternoon and throughout the day on Sunday. There is a chance for up to half an inch of sleet plus an extra layer of freezing rain on top. That's sounds awful.

The good news is that the NWS errs on the side of caution with these kinds of storms, and they miss more often than they hit. Still, it's worth being very aware that driving conditions could be hazardous for a twenty-four period starting tomorrow afternoon. Even if we don't get the ice, we're in store for many hours of cold rain.

Thanks, NWS Albany. This may not look bad, but it could get worse.

Saturday night sounds like a good time to get to that Netflix series you've been holding off on as the roads might not be a lot of fun to drive on.

Hopefully, this mess will miss us, but your radar should be up for slick travel conditions Saturday night and during the day on Sunday.

We'll have more if the forecast takes a turn for the worst.
