Binghamton, NY – Snow squalls and strong wind gusts are expected to move across portions of central and upstate New York on Sunday, creating potentially hazardous travel during the late afternoon and evening, according to the National Weather Service (NWS) in Binghamton.
Forecasters say winds will increase throughout the day, with peak gusts between 30 and 45 mph expected between 1 PM and 8 PM. The strongest winds are likely across the Lake Plain south of Lake Ontario and higher elevations above 1,300 feet, including areas near Syracuse, Cortland, and Hamilton.
The NWS notes that a snow squall threat will develop between 5 PM and 10 PM, as colder air rapidly sweeps into the region. Temperatures will drop from the upper 30s and lower 40s into the upper 20s and mid-30s by evening, allowing brief but intense bursts of snow to stick quickly to road surfaces…
