If you're a winter enthusiast, the latest prediction for the upcoming season is snow big deal - a wetter winter for Central New York but with warmer temperatures.
Get the coats and shovels out. Winter may be making an early arrival in Central New York with cold temperatures and plowable snow expected next month. And if that's not bad enough, the winter weather is expected to hang around a little longer than normal too.
Scattered rain showers linger today with blustery winds into the afternoon and evening. Rain gradually changes to snow with some light accumulations overnight. Most of Saturday will be dry before a few rain showers move in during the evening.
It may say spring on the calendar but someone forgot to tell Mother Nature. A mixed bag of snow, sleet, freezing rain and cold temperatures will make it feel more like winter in Central New York.
It may be cold, with wind chills well below zero, but at least we're not digging up from snowmagedoon. Four years ago today, we took one eerie drive after winter storm Stella.
It's starting to feel a lot like Spring in central New York with above normal temperatures. How warm has it been? Warm enough to break records in Utica.
It's all about timing. And when it comes to child birth, the timing is up to the baby. Just ask a New York couple forced to give birth in a pickup truck, on the way to the hospital.
