In most of the lower Hudson Valley, light freezing rain continues, and additional ice accumulations of a light glaze are possible.

Patchy light freezing rain is possible early this morning in southern Westchester.

Very slippery sidewalks, roads and bridges are possible. The hazardous conditions could affect the morning commute.

In the mid-Hudson Valley, additional snow accumulations of less than one inch are possible, with ice accumulations of a light glaze. Mixed precipitation will change over to plain rain this morning as temperatures rise above freezing.

All the advisories are due to end at 10 a.m.

As temperatures rise above freezing, steady rainfall will return to the region for late today into tonight, but all areas should be above freezing by that time, the NWS said.

Then it's going to stay wet and get warm.

"Mid 50s are now a possibility for Thursday afternoon. Temperatures drop back to around 40°F or even the upper 30s, Thursday night," Bruce Furbeck of First Due Weather said on Facebook.
