New York, NY – A winter weather advisory remains in effect for portions of southern Connecticut, northeast New Jersey, and southeast New York from noon Saturday until early Sunday, with snow and freezing rain expected.
According to the National Weather Service, snow accumulations between 2 and 5 inches are forecast, with ice accumulations of up to two-tenths of an inch in northern areas. Southern regions, including Southern Fairfield and Bergen County, are expected to receive 2 to 4 inches of snow with a light glaze of ice.
The advisory warns of hazardous travel conditions, particularly on untreated roads and sidewalks. Authorities urge residents to drive cautiously and check for updated road conditions before traveling. Freezing rain may lead to icy surfaces, increasing the risk of slips and falls.
