OFFICIAL NWS ALERTS: NONE

While today will feel less harsh compared to the past few days, you still should dress warmly! Highs will be in the upper 30s, but feeling closer to 30 degrees at times and it will not be nearly as windy as the past several days, too.

Light snow showers will arrive after midnight tonight and can bring up to around one inch of snow to the lower Hudson Valley through mid-morning tomorrow. Please use caution driving and walking around outside with slippery conditions possible. Midday Saturday should be better and definitely drier, but there will be some refreezing of any standing water tomorrow night that will once again cause patchy areas of black ice into Sunday morning.

Next week looks mostly dry at this point with high temperatures close to 40 degrees Sunday and Monday before it gets colder for the middle of next week again.

FORECAST:

TODAY: FEELING LESS HARSH - Increasing clouds, but dry. Not feeling as harsh as the past few days, but still cold. It is still breezy, but the wind is only gusting up to around 20 mph today. Highs around 38 degrees will feel like near 30 degrees.

TONIGHT: Cloudy with scattered light snow and flurries arriving after midnight. Lows around 26 degrees.

SATURDAY: STORM WATCH (EARLY AM) - Minor impacts, but cloudy with a period of light snow showers, mostly before 8 a.m. as a storm passes well to the southeast. Snow totals will range from just a trace to around one inch. Slippery conditions will still be possible as any coating of snow can cause scattered issues like we saw this past Monday. Some breaks in the clouds possible late in the afternoon. Highs around 35 degrees. Lows around 26 degrees.
