A series of weather systems are bringing snow to New York, New Jersey, and Upstate New York this weekend. Here's what you need to know.
The New York City area is bracing for two potential snow events this weekend. The first, arriving Saturday, could bring light-to-moderate snow. Accumulation on roadways is more likely in northwestern zones where temperatures will be colder. CBS New York has declared a First Alert Weather Day for Saturday due to the anticipated conditions. The second chance for snow comes on Sunday, as a coastal storm develops offshore. While forecast models suggest the Tri-State Area will only be grazed by this storm, areas south and east of NYC, especially Suffolk and Ocean counties, may see 1–3 inches of snowfall. Meanwhile, Upstate New York is already experiencing significant lake-effect snow. The National Weather Service reported that Eden in Erie County received 21.6 inches of snow, while Baldwinsville in Central New York received 14 inches. The combination of snow and poor visibility led to multiple crashes, including a major pileup on the state Thruway. Residents are urged to monitor updated forecasts and exercise caution while traveling.
