Some pockets of freezing rain continue across eastern Ulster and western Dutchess counties where temps are around 32 degrees. The spotty freezing rain may transition to rain this afternoon before a burst of snow this evening. Untreated surfaces may become slippery due to any ice that accretes. Use caution on the roads.
