A Red Flag Warning means that critical fire weather conditions
are either occurring now....or will shortly. A combination of
strong winds...low relative humidity...and warm temperatures can
contribute to extreme fire behavior.
Scattered snow showers will reduce visibilities and result in
quick accumulations of snowfall during the rush hour into the
evening hours. Locations potentially impacted include the Finger
Lakes southward toward Elmira and northward toward Syracuse. With
falling temperatures slick and snow covered roads are possible
along with black ice. Allow extra time to reach to your
destination if you encounter snow showers.
