Sleet and ice accumulating across the western Catskills

Roads in the higher elevations of the Catskills are dangerously slick tonight, especially in the western Catskills counties of Delaware and Sullivan, where the National Weather Service's Binghamton office has issued a special weather bulletin about bands of snow and sleet moving through the area

Citizen reports coming into the NWS are indicating many accidents on the roads. Earlier this evening, Delaware County Fire Wire and Emergency News reported that first responders were on the scene at Exit 87 off Route 17 in Hancock, where a car went over the bank. 

Travel may be dangerous for the Monday morning commute as well in areas that dip below freezing tonight, Hudson Valley Weather warns.

The good news? Highs of around 60 degrees are expected for April 1, if you believe these NWS guys.
