Potential for slippery roads and walking surfaces late tonight into early Saturday morning as wet surfaces from snow melt and rain showers may turn slick from temperatures falling towards freezing late tonight and winds turning lighter. Highest chance in the Upper Hudson Valley. Slippery road conditions tomorrow night within the Southwest Adirondacks, northern/eastern Catskills, Helderbergs, Berkshires, Taconics, Berkshires, and Southern Vermont due to light ice accumulations from freezing rain and light snow/sleet accumulations. Winter Weather Advisories will likely be needed where confidence is highest for freezing rain. Increasing confidence for strong wind gusts reaching 3545mph Sunday afternoon into especially Sunday night. Such strong winds can lead to downed tree limbs and blow around unsecured outdoor objects. There is a low chance that we will need a wind advisory in the Rensselaer Plateau and northern Berkshire County.
