Hudson Valley meteorologist Ben Noll agrees, saying Hudson Valley residents should expect "light snow."

"It’s not the big storm that looked possible earlier in the week, but it’s something," Noll states in his newsletter. "Light snow will develop across the Hudson Valley during the early hours of Saturday morning and end by early afternoon. A coating up to an inch of powdery snow is expected, leaving area roads somewhat slippery on Saturday morning."
