Flurries Persist as Wind and Mixed Precipitation Arrive Sunday
Following a record-breaking snowfall at Syracuse Airport, lingering snow flurries are expected to diminish. Sunshine is anticipated later today, providing a brief respite. Below are the latest local snowfall totals, primarily reported on Friday. It’s advisable to add a few inches to these figures due to continued accumulation.
Weather Forecast for Sunday
Temperatures today are expected to range from the mid to low 30s, accompanied by calming winds. However, this break in snowfall will be short-lived. A fresh round of flurries, potentially mixed with rain, is likely to arrive on Sunday.
Winter Weather Advisories
The National Weather Service has issued winter weather advisories starting at 1 AM on Sunday, particularly affecting higher elevations in the Tug Hill and Adirondack regions. Moderate snowfall accumulation and gusty winds are predicted throughout the day.
Impact of Low-Pressure System
A low-pressure system moving through the Midwest will contribute to this inclement weather. Although snowfall amounts might not be substantial, gusty winds of 35-45 mph could cause blowing and drifting of leftover snow.
- Wind Gusts: 35-45 mph
- Potential Road Conditions: Wet and slick
- Temperature Range: Low 30s
If traveling on Sunday, exercise caution due to possible slick roads and strong winds. Looking ahead, the beginning of December may bring several additional snow chances.
