New York, NY – Light precipitation is expected to overspread much of downstate New York tonight, with some areas seeing snow before a possible changeover to rain by Monday morning.
According to the US National Weather Service New York, precipitation will begin over the next few hours and could start as a rain-and-snow mix, especially north and west of New York City. Snow icons on the agency’s hourly forecast graphic show the steadiest activity occurring between late Sunday night and early Monday morning.
Locations including Central Park in Manhattan, JFK Airport in Queens, Islip on Long Island, White Plains in Westchester County, and Newburgh in the Hudson Valley could all see light snow during the overnight hours. Coastal Connecticut communities such as Bridgeport and New London are also included in the forecast zone.
Forecasters say any snowfall is expected to be light, but brief slick spots may develop on untreated roads, bridges, and overpasses before daybreak Monday. The highest chance for minor travel impacts appears to be between midnight and 7 a.m., potentially affecting the early commute.
As temperatures hover near freezing in some inland areas, drivers in northern New Jersey, the Lower Hudson Valley, and interior portions of Long Island should allow extra travel time Monday morning.
Conditions are expected to improve later in the morning as precipitation tapers and temperatures gradually rise.
