Local weather forecast
Today's forecast is specific to Catskill, in Greene County:
The National Weather Service in Albany has issued a Special Weather Statement for northwestern Connecticut, western Massachusetts, east central New York and southern Vermont, forecasting patchy, dense fog and freezing fog through early Tuesday morning. Temperatures below freezing combined with some fog result in freezing fog. The fog and freezing fog could be locally dense through the early morning hours with visibilities between one-quarter of a mile and one mile. The freezing fog could also create patchy black ice on walkways and roadways, especially bridges and overpasses. Motorists are urged to use extreme caution while driving during the morning commute. Leave extra distance between yourself and neighboring motorists, and allow extra time to reach your destination.
