Binghamton, NY – A warm and mostly dry Friday is giving way to a soggier weekend across Central New York, as rain is expected to begin Friday night and continue into Sunday.

According to the National Weather Service Binghamton, a warm front will move into the region late Friday afternoon and evening, bringing scattered rain showers as it stalls north of the Mohawk Valley. Rainfall amounts are projected to remain light, with totals ranging from 0.01 to 0.10 inches through Saturday morning in areas like Elmira, Oneonta, and Binghamton.

High temperatures on Friday will peak in the upper 50s and low 60s across much of the region, with partly sunny skies expected through the late afternoon hours. However, cloud cover and increasing moisture will dominate the weekend as the stalled front maintains a steady chance of rain across Central New York.

Drivers are urged to remain cautious during overnight travel, as damp roads may impact visibility and traction. Residents should plan for intermittent showers throughout the weekend and monitor local forecasts for any updates. While the rain will be generally light, it’s advised to secure outdoor items and prepare for damp conditions if planning activities through Sunday.
