------------------------------

We're fresh off of three feet of snow and still digging out but now on the horizon is another wild weather event that is not going to put smiles on anyone's face...a Christmas Eve downpour set to make a giant wet mess everywhere!

According to the National Weather Service of Binghamton, Thursday during the day looks to be a warm, rainy day and then the rain continues overnight Thursday with heavy rain at times and the temperature dropping to around 30, bringing ice Friday morning.

The weather service warns: "Snowmelt and rain will likely lead to
ponding of water on roads and in poor drainage areas, with some
potential for flooding. Also, for areas that recently received heavy
snow, combined weight of old snow and new rain on rooftops, could
lead to problems."
