Slippery Conditions Possible Throughout the Twin Tiers

There is a potential for some slippery road conditions around the region through the day January 24 with rain overnight combined with temperatures in the 30s that are expected to drop during the day.

Officials are also keeping tabs on river levels as the weekend snow melts and drainage is poor around the region.

Frozen ground and clogged storm drains could add to a potential for water levels to rise on small creeks and streams.

So far no advisories concerning a potential for flooding have been issued.
