Rensselaer, NY – Snow showers are expected to move into Upstate New York tonight, bringing slick conditions before a warmer weekend. While accumulation is expected to be minimal, roads—including I-90 and local highways—may become slippery overnight.
According to the National Weather Service, rain and snow will begin before 10 p.m., transitioning to snow as temperatures drop to 33°F. Winds will be light but shifting from the north in the evening. Although snowfall totals should stay under half an inch, untreated roads and bridges could become hazardous.
Thursday will bring mostly cloudy skies with a high of 48°F. Winds will pick up slightly from the southeast, making it feel cooler. Thursday night remains calm, with temperatures dropping to 33°F.
Looking ahead, Friday and Saturday offer a taste of spring, with highs reaching 58°F and 60°F, respectively. However, rain showers return Saturday night into Sunday, with an 80% chance of precipitation. Sunday will be the warmest day, hitting 66°F before cooling again on Monday.
Drivers should exercise caution tonight and be prepared for wet roads this weekend. Warmer temperatures are on the way, but spring showers will keep conditions unpredictable. Stay updated with the latest local forecasts.
