New York, NY – Snow showers early today could affect morning travel across New York City and surrounding areas. Drivers on I-87 and other major routes should prepare for slippery roads with limited visibility.
According to the National Weather Service, light snow will taper off by late morning, leaving less than an inch of accumulation across most of the region. The snow will be followed by clearing skies and high temperatures reaching the mid-30s this afternoon. Commuters are urged to reduce speeds and allow extra time as untreated roads may remain slick due to the recent cold snap.
Christmas Day will bring sunny skies and milder conditions, with highs near 34 degrees. North winds will keep the day brisk but ideal for spending time outdoors with family. Overnight, temperatures will drop into the mid-20s, so anyone traveling late should bundle up.
Looking ahead, the midweek forecast calls for mostly sunny skies on Thursday with a high of 35 degrees. Warmer temperatures near 40 degrees are expected Friday, but rain chances return by Sunday. Weekend travelers should monitor updates as showers may impact late-holiday plans.
The National Weather Service also advises caution for those traveling early today due to the potential for snow-covered roads. Plan accordingly, especially if traveling in northern suburbs where accumulations may be slightly higher.
