New York — Rain soaked pavement, falling temperatures and the possibility of wet snow could reshape travel across Binghamton and Broome County heading into the weekend.
The Southern Tier faces a notable weather transition, with temperatures dropping from near 60 degrees Thursday to around freezing Thursday night. Snow chances then extend into Saturday.
According to the National Weather Service, Binghamton could reach 58 degrees Wednesday before rain becomes the dominant weather concern. Thursday brings a 100% chance of precipitation, followed by colder air and possible snow.
Thursday Brings Rain Before Temperatures Tumble Thursday, November 12, looks especially wet across the Binghamton area.
Rain chances reach 100%, with temperatures climbing near 60 degrees. Between a quarter inch and half inch of additional precipitation is possible.
Drivers along Interstate 81, Interstate 88 and Route 17 should prepare for wet pavement and reduced visibility during steadier rainfall.
By Thursday evening, conditions begin changing.
Temperatures fall toward 32 degrees as rain transitions toward snow, potentially mixing with rain before ending.
The National Weather Service indicates less than half an inch of new snow accumulation is possible Thursday night.
Friday Snow Chances Increase as Cold Air Arrives Friday, November 13, brings another noticeable change.
Temperatures struggle to reach 42 degrees, nearly 18 degrees below Thursday's expected high.
Snow is likely early, possibly mixing with rain before 1 p.m. A chance of rain follows, with precipitation probabilities reaching 60%.
Northwest winds of 7 to 9 mph could add a biting chill.
Friday night temperatures fall near 30 degrees, with a 50% chance of snow.
That combination raises concerns about slick surfaces, particularly where standing water remains after Thursday's rainfall.
Refreezing could create isolated icy patches on bridges, untreated roads and shaded surfaces. However, widespread flash freezing is not explicitly predicted.
Saturday Keeps Snow Chances Alive Saturday, November 14, remains chilly, with highs near 42 degrees.
Snow chances continue before 1 p.m., although precipitation probabilities decrease to 40%.
Saturday night turns mostly cloudy, with temperatures around 32 degrees.
Sunday offers some improvement, with mostly cloudy skies and highs approaching 45 degrees.
The broader national pattern supports this colder transition. The Weather Prediction Center is tracking a significant polar air intrusion across the eastern United States.
No specific tornado threat is identified for Binghamton in the supplied outlook.
