BINGHAMTON, N.Y. – After a quiet start to the weekend, rain and gusty winds are set to return across the Southern Tier Sunday into early Monday. The National Weather Service in Binghamton warns that a cold front moving through central New York will bring widespread showers and breezes up to 25 mph, especially along I-81 and the Susquehanna Valley.
According to the National Weather Service, rainfall will begin Sunday afternoon and continue into the night, with steady showers likely and a few heavier bursts possible. Motorists should plan for slick roads, wet leaves, and brief visibility reductions during heavier rain. Gusty south winds will make driving difficult at times on elevated routes and overpasses. Secure outdoor decorations and lightweight items ahead of the front’s arrival.
Conditions will improve quickly by Monday afternoon as sunshine returns and temperatures fall into the upper 50s. Cooler air will settle in across Broome, Tioga, and Chenango counties, setting up a crisp, breezy start to the workweek.
According to forecasters, Tuesday offers a brief dry window before another round of showers midweek. Temperatures will hold near seasonal norms, with daytime highs in the 50s and lows dipping into the 40s. The late-week pattern looks partly sunny but brisk—ideal for pumpkin patch visits or scenic drives through the Finger Lakes as fall color peaks across upstate New York.
