New York – Rain taps steadily across Binghamton this morning, while fog clings to hillsides and reduces visibility to about 4 miles along I-81 and Route 17. Wet pavement is already slowing traffic, and conditions may shift quickly as colder air moves in behind the rain.
According to the National Weather Service, showers continue through midday with precipitation chances near 80%, followed by a transition to scattered rain and even snow showers late tonight into early Monday. While accumulation stays light, brief bursts of snow could mix in, especially in higher elevations, adding a slick edge to overnight travel.
Roads across Broome, Tioga, and Chenango counties will remain damp through the day. Drivers should expect reduced traction and occasional low visibility. Plan extra time, particularly on elevated roadways where conditions change fastest.
By Monday, temperatures struggle to reach 41°F as scattered rain and snow showers linger into midday. The bigger concern arrives Monday night, when skies clear and temperatures plunge to around 22°F. Any leftover moisture could freeze quickly, creating patchy black ice on bridges and untreated roads — a classic flash-freeze setup.
Tuesday brings a sharp turnaround with sunshine and highs near 53°F, melting early ice and improving travel conditions. A steady warm-up follows, with Wednesday reaching the low 60s under partly sunny skies before another round of showers returns.
