HEADLINES:
  • I adjusted the snow map. The chance for the heaviest snow looks to start North of the I-287 corridor. Otherwise, no major changes.
  • A Winter Storm Watch is in effect north of I-287. The National Weather Service will update this later today.
  • Light rain this afternoon, mix in higher elevations.
  • Dry Sunday morning. Event starts around noon and lingers until midnight or early Monday morning.
A Winter Storm Watch is in effect for the Hudson Valley north of I-287. Snow totals are expected to reach or exceed 6 inches in spots.
We're tracking heavy snow at times for Sunday afternoon. Several inches of snow is expected to fall across the Hudson Valley and temperatures will be bitter cold for several days behind the storm. Our latest thinking is a general 6 inches of snow across the Hudson Valley, with some sleet mixing in south of I-287 which would lower totals slightly there. Check back for updates, we will continue to fine tune things throughout the day today.
Most of the weekend is okay! Today is dry to start with light rain showers developing in the afternoon. It's gloomy, but this is plain rain and just a nuisance. Some wintry mix is expected in the upper Hudson Valley this afternoon, but little to no accumulation is expected.
The work week will be dangerously cold. Monday morning will feel like near 0. Tuesday and Wednesday will feel like below 0. Actual temperatures will be in the single digits on Tuesday and Wednesday morning. Afternoon temperatures are not much better. We'll see highs in the teens and feels like temperatures in the single digits for the midafternoon on Tuesday and Wednesday.
We are tracking a major southern snowstorm that could make a close brush with our area on Tuesday, but at this time no snow is expected.
TODAY: Mostly cloudy to start, with rain showers likely in the afternoon and in the evening. Highs in the mid 40s.
SUNDAY: Mostly cloudy to start with highs near 40. Snow develops after noon and will taper off after midnight.
MONDAY: Early snow showers before sunrise., then sun and cold. Highs in the upper 20s.
TUESDAY: Mostly sunny early then cloudy. Dangerous cold. Highs in the teens.
WEDNESDAY: Clouds to start, then some sun and dangerous cold. Highs in the teens.
