Scattered snow showers with embedded snow squalls are possible
this afternoon and evening across the North Country ahead of a
strong arctic cold front. These convective snow showers will have
the potential to quickly drop surface visibilities below half a
mile and produce a quick inch or two of snowfall in 20 minutes or
less. In addition, sharply falling temperatures on gusty northwest
winds will cause leftover water and slush to quickly freeze on
area roadways. Untreated surfaces will become extremely slippery
and offer little or no traction, creating hazardous travel
conditions possible, especially during the evening commute. If you
must travel, please use caution, reduce speeds, and increase
distance between your vehicle and others.
