According to David Bishop, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Portland, after a lull in the precipitation Thursday afternoon, freezing rain is now expected to start Thursday between 6 p.m. and 8 p.m. That precipitation should start as freezing rain and transition to snow between 3 a.m. and 5 a.m. or so, he said.

Update: Storm Tracker 2 Meteorologist Rhonda Shelby says a back edge to the first band of precipitation is just about to move through the metro area.1

National Weather Service Binghamton says to expect snow showers, sleet and freezing rain beginning Saturday night in Binghamton.

Sure, it looks fine now, but snow, sleet and freezing rain are on the way, moving south to north through the Willamette Valley early Thursday.
