The second of three systems to impact the Hudson Valley this week comes our way this morning.

Cold rain will fall down for many, but a wintry mix of sleet and freezing rain will be possible as well, mainly for Orange & Putnam Counties. Those two counties, plus Eastern Dutchess & Western Ulster counties, are under a winter weather advisory until noon today.

The morning commute will be impacted with wet & slick roadways and an icy possible as well for areas around I-84, for instance. Take it easier and slower on the roadways.

Scattered showers will taper off this evening, but we'll see some rain mixed in with a wintry mix from time to time as colder air starts to return to the area. Showers will taper off overnight, giving us a drier day on Saturday. Much of the day will be shower-free, but we may see some snow showers possible late in the evening.

All eyes are on the highly talked about coastal storm for Sunday to Monday. That timing is very much locked in. There are still the questions though of how much snow we'll ultimately see as well as how close the storm will get to the coast.

Either which way, prepare to deal with falling snow starting Sunday morning and lasting into Monday midday. Shovels will be needed as we can see a range of 1-6" of snow coming down. The higher end of that range will be closer to the mountainous areas. Closer to the coast, you'd find the lower totals. Everyone will see breezy to gusty winds though.
