January in northeastern New York's Southern Adirondack mountains...love it or leave it. 
Well, we're high enough in the north, that we'll not get most of the icing that they will in the upper and mid-Hudson Valley (50 to 100 miles north of New York City).
It's in the low 30's fahrenheight now, and for the rest of the week it will fairly comfortable for this time of year-- mainly be in the low to upper 20's F, so at least we're out of the deep freeze for a while, no sub-zero's...brrrr!.
We've a storm coming in sometime in the wee hours of the morning--not too bad for us up north--less than 12 inches, no big deal. But, the south and southeast could see another bad ice storm--which is far worse than any blizzard could be, trust me on this. My sister lives in southern Vermont, not far from the Massachusetts border, so looks like she may have to break out the ice caluks for their shoes, the generator and lay on some wood for their boiler/furnace...and hopefully some groceries, in case they can't get down the mountain for a day or two.
Here's what the weatherman says:
This next storm will lift snow into our area late this evening from south to north. Snow will overspread most of the Capital Region by about 2AM, continuing through daybreak. We are anticipating about 2" to 4" of snow accumulation by the morning commute. At that time, warm air will move in above us in the atmosphere. Snow will mix will sleet and freezing rain from the Schoharie Valley to Albany and southern Vermont, with some sleet possible further north. And a complete changeover to freezing rain will likely occur in areas south and southeast of Albany. We're specifically watching Greene, Columbia and southern Berkshire counties where heavy icing may occur during the day on Wednesday. The exact precipitation type will vary greatly depending on your location, and the exact track of the storm.
The wintry mix will continue for much of the day on Wednesday, eventually changing to all snow through the evening as colder air arrives. At that point, the storm will be pulling away from the Capital Region which should end the accumulating precipitation. For the entire storm, the Adirondacks through upper Hudson Valley could see 5" to 9" of snow... 3" to 6" will accumulate in the Mohawk Valley through Albany and southern Vermont... areas south and east of Albany will see 1" to 3" accumulation of snow and sleet with up to 1/2" of ice.
