NYC Morning Snow Weekend Split Ahead
Good morning everyone. The wet snow is here and accumulating mostly on colder surfaces as promised. The snow map is also working out pretty well for the NYC Metro Area, but areas west and north of the City aren’t working out too well as most of the energy shifted well to the east and into southern New England.
SATELLITE
Look for snow to continue for a few more hours, with little additional accumulation. It’s a wet variety, the roads are wet, and we’ll be above freezing, so just enjoy the scenery until it comes to an end.
SNOW ACCUMULATIONS
We’re looking pretty good accumulation-wise, but you can pretty much scratch that 1-3″ to our N&W. A few areas up there can see a quick 1/2-1″ with a thin band moving through, but that’s about it. Look for a general trace – 2″ on colder surfaces elsewhere, with a trace – 1″ along the south facing shores of Brooklyn, Queens, and Long Island.
REGIONAL RADAR
Skies clear out later today, and the sun might actually help slowly melt things as we head into the mid to upper 30’s. Tomorrow is a sunny and cold one, with lights winds and highs in the low to mid 30’s.
LOCAL RADAR NEW YORK CITY
We modify quickly on Friday, but we also cloud up quickly again. A fairly vigorous system will begin to head up the coast, but take an inland route. Highs Friday will be in the mid to upper 40’s, and we may see an evening shower.
The real rain heads in late Friday night and into Saturday, which will be a complete washout. We’ll be mild and breezy Saturday with highs in the mid 50’s, but rain all day will keep things feeling raw.
Nuisance showers will stick around Saturday night, then we dry out for Sunday and clouds will decrease. Expect a seasonal but windy day Sunday, highs in the mid to upper 40’s.
