Discussion
One storm system will push away today and attention will turn to another system that will impact the region from late Wednesday night into early Friday. High pressure will build over New England on Wednesday and act as an anchor for a cold air mass in the Mid-Atlantic region. As a result, the chance of accumulating snow at the onset of the next storm system will be quite high in the NYC metro region from later Thursday morning into the mid-day hours. The snow is likely to mix with or change to sleet and/or freezing rain on Thursday night, but not before possible significant accumulations. Stay tuned…something to closely monitor next couple of days.
