Discussion
Snow will overspread the region later this morning as our next winter storm arrives and it can become heavy at times with quick accumulations likely. The snow can mix with sleet late in the day and the precipitation may actually lighten up for a brief time at day’s end and early tonight. Precipitation will then re-develop later tonight likely as a mix of sleet and snow and it can actually change back to all snow on Friday before precipitation winds down in what will turn out to be another rather long duration event. Snowfall accumulation estimates of 4-8 inches for the NYC metro region with isolated higher amounts possible N/W and there can be an icy buildup during the second half of the storm.
