BINGHAMTON – This weekend’s weather is predicted to be frigid, with possible heavy snow. At the time of this report, the exact track of the storm or storm totals is not possible. National Weather Service meteorologist Kaitlyn Lardeo says there’s a 60 percent chance of six inches or more in the Catskill region.

“Right now we’re looking at, the storm coming early. Late Saturday night. With the heavy snow likely falling between Sunday and Sunday night and then lingering into Monday.”

New York State DOT Region 8 spokeswoman Heather Pillsworth said the road crews are ready for whatever the storm brings to our area.

“Our folks are prepped on 12-hour shifts. We will have our folks from the time that the storm starts to the time it ends, and the roadways are clear.”

Pillsworth says if you have to drive, the safest place to be is to, “Stay behind the plow.”
