Expiration: 900 AM EST TUE DEC 29 2009
...LOW WIND CHILLS AND LOCALLY DIFFICULT TRAVEL THIS MORNING...
SNOW SHOWERS AND HEAVIER SNOW SQUALLS WILL CONTINUE TO PUSH
ACROSS EASTERN NEW YORK AND MUCH OF CENTRAL AND NORTHERN VERMONT
THROUGH THE EARLY MORNING HOURS AS A POTENT ARCTIC COLD FRONT
SURGES ACROSS THE AREA. THE ACTIVITY SHOULD WANE BY THE MID TO
LATE MORNING HOURS BUT NOT BEFORE DEPOSITING A QUICK 1 TO 2 INCHES
OF SNOW ACROSS MANY AREAS. THE SNOWFALL COMBINED WITH INCREASINGLY
GUSTY NORTHWEST WINDS WILL LEAD TO AREAS OF BLOWING AND DRIFTING
SNOW...WHICH WILL GREATLY REDUCE VISIBILITIES DURING THE PERIOD.
ADDITIONALLY...WITH TEMPERATURES FALLING INTO THE SINGLE DIGITS TO
IN SOME CASES NEAR ZERO BY THIS AFTERNOON...THESE WINDS WILL ALLOW
LOW WIND CHILLS TO DEVELOP...WITH VALUES RANGING FROM 15 TO 25
BELOW ACROSS THE NORTHERN MOUNTAINS INTO PORTIONS OF CENTRAL AND
EASTERN VERMONT. AS A RESULT...THOSE WITH TRAVEL OR OUTDOOR PLANS
TODAY SHOULD TAKE THE NECESSARY PRECAUTIONS TO DEAL WITH LOCALLY
SLICK ROADS AND LOW WIND CHILLS.
