Statement as of 3:52 PM EST on January 06, 2009

Expires 7:00 AM EST on January 08, 2009


... Winter Storm Warning remains in effect from 7 PM this evening
to 7 am EST Thursday...

A Winter Storm Warning remains in effect from 7 PM this evening
to 7 am EST Thursday.

Another very complex storm will impact the central and
southeastern Catskills... Mid Hudson valley... the Berkshires and
Litchfield County tonight through Wednesday night. Snow
will overspread the area this evening... however warmer air will
move in aloft resulting in a change over to freezing rain and
sleet overnight. Freezing rain is expected to be the dominate
precipitation type through most of Wednesday. However... as warmer
air continues to lift north... a brief period of rain is expected
during Wednesday afternoon before a change over back to snow
Wednesday night before the precipitation tapers off.

Before the change over to freezing rain and or sleet occurs 1 to
3 inches of snow is expected across Ulster... Dutchess and
Litchfield counties... with higher amounts of 2 to 5 inches
possible across Greene... Columbia and Berkshire counties. Ice
accumulations of a quarter to one half of inch are expected. The
combination of snow and ice accumulation may result in downed
trees and power outages on Wednesday.

The precipitation will be the result of an area of low pressure
approaching from the southwest tonight which will move across the Ohio
Valley... and into the Great Lakes region Wednesday. A secondary
area of low pressure will develop near Long Island
Wednesday... then both lows will head northeast Wednesday night.

A Winter Storm Warning means significant amounts of snow...
sleet... and ice are expected or occurring. Strong winds are also
possible. This will make travel very hazardous or impossible.
