Light freezing rain will impact parts of New York this morning, creating slick roads and icy surfaces. Drivers should exercise caution.
According to the National Weather Service in New York, a thin layer of ice is expected to accumulate. Less than a tenth of an inch is forecast, but even a small amount can cause hazardous conditions. Eastern Nassau and Western Bergen counties are no longer under a Winter Weather Advisory, but other areas remain affected.
Temperatures will hover near freezing, increasing the risk of ice on untreated roads and sidewalks. The icy conditions may continue through the morning before improving later in the day. Residents should check local updates and avoid unnecessary travel.
Authorities urge everyone to allow extra travel time and use caution when walking or driving. The National Weather Service will issue further updates as needed.
