Long Island weather: Light snow and cold temps making for slippery roads overnight, Monday morning

Light snow was continuing to fall overnight in some places on Long Island Sunday, making for slippery travel overnight and into the Monday morning commute, forecasters said.

The National Weather Service put out special statements twice Sunday night warning drivers to be cautious on the road, due to snow showers combining with frigid temperatures.

"With temperatures in mid 20s … accumulating snow is possible on all untreated surfaces. Slippery conditions may result," one statement said.

Below freezing temperatures continue into Monday. Expect sunny skies, but a high only in the upper 20s and again wind chill values as low as five degrees, with gusts up to 28 mph, according to the weather service.

Then Tuesday looks sunny with a high right around freezing.

Wednesday brings the start of a warmup with partly sunny skies and a high in the upper 40s. Thursday will be even warmer when the forecast calls for a 50% chance of showers in the afternoon and a high in the upper 50s.

Friday’s temperatures are predicted to be in the upper 40s and then a high Saturday around 40.
