Effective: Thu January 8, 2026, 4:59 AM
Expires: Thu January 8, 2026, 9:15 AM

Across the southwest Adirondacks, Mohawk Valley, eastern Catskills and Helderbergs, Taconics, southern Green Mountains and Berkshires, patchy freezing drizzle and fog will remain possible through mid morning, especially across higher elevations. This will create icy ground surfaces and reduced visibilities. Motorists and pedestrians should exercise caution if driving or walking through 9 AM this morning and be prepared for a possible thin layer of ice on roadways, sidewalks, stairs, driveways or any other untreated ground surfaces which may remain icy and slippery.

The times presented here are based upon the solunar theory, which is the idea that the movements of fish and other animals are affected by the location of the sun and moon. The major periods are believed to be the times of the greatest animal activity and occur when the moon is directly overhead or underfoot (lunar transits). The minor periods also see increased activity and occur when the moon is rising or setting. The strongest activity occurs during full or new moons, and the weakest during quarter or three quarter moons. This is indicated by the Action Rating.
