Flakes were spotted in a handful of counties (Sullivan and Ulster) northwest of New York City Sunday, a day after many in the region broke daily heat records. That one was the surprise.

The overnight temps stay frigid Monday. Rain moves in Tuesday night and will run into some cold air in the suburbs north and west of the city, meaning a wintry mix is possible for places like Sullivan, Ulster and Orange counties. No significant accumulation is expected.
Drivers should exercise caution Wednesday morning as slippery conditions could be in store for early travelers.
Any fans of the recent heat are in for disappointing news. The extended forecast has nothing but colder temps in store for the region.
