This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for western and north central New
York.

.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight.

The probability of widespread hazardous weather is low.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Wednesday through Monday.

A significant warm-up will arrive Wednesday through Friday morning.
This will produce an extended period of melting snow, with an area
of low pressure also bringing a few periods of rain. The combination
of rain and snowmelt may bring an increased risk of flooding,
particularly Thursday night and Friday. The greatest risk of
flooding is from ice jams as the warming temperatures and rising
flows break up the extensive ice on area rivers and creeks.

A strong cold front will cross the area Friday, followed by low
pressure moving through Pennsylvania and New York Friday night and
Saturday. This system will be moisture laden, and bring with it the
potential for significant amounts of rain, ice and snow. There
remains some uncertainty with the exact track of this system, and
how fast cold air will arrive. These details will determine how much
of each precipitation type falls.

Spotter activation is not expected at this time.
