Overview
- - The National Weather Service issued special weather statements Tuesday morning for Herkimer, Hamilton and Fulton as a band of moderate to locally heavy snow moved into the western Adirondacks and the western Mohawk Valley.
- - A follow-up statement extended coverage to Saratoga, Warren, Washington, Schoharie, Schenectady, Albany and Rensselaer as the band shifted into the Hudson Valley, the Helderbergs and the northern Catskills.
- - Forecasters said brief drops in visibility and a quick coating on untreated pavement are possible where temperatures sit near freezing, with the greatest impact in hill towns and other higher terrain.
- - Drivers were urged to slow down and leave extra space because conditions can switch from wet to slick within minutes when the band passes.
- - MassLive reported Berkshire County in western Massachusetts under a similar statement as the snow band tracked east, highlighting that impacts are localized and short-lived rather than part of a larger storm.
