Discussion
Icing will continue over the next few hours in areas to the north and west of the NYC metro region where surface temperatures hover near the freezing mark. Untreated surfaces (driveways, sidewalks) will stay especially icy in many areas until temperatures edge into the upper 30's later today. Plain rain is likely throughout the area this afternoon, but as colder air filters back into the region tonight, the precipitation could change back briefly to ice and/or snow before ending. Quite cold conditions are in store for the NYC metro region on Tuesday and Tuesday night as high pressure builds in. Longer term, milder weather is in store in the Mid-Atlantic for about a week or so beginning later this weekend; however, the cold pattern will resume later this month.
