New York braces for another snowy weekend and could see 4 inches of snow

Saturday, February 17, 2024

New Yorkers, despite some surprise, remain nonchalant about the snow storm. But, meteorologists promise a short-lived event.

New York City is bracing for another round of snow this weekend, just days after the previous winter storm left about 4 inches of accumulation.

A fast-moving low-pressure system will bring snow to the city starting around midnight Friday and lasting until Saturday morning, according to the National Weather Service.

The snowfall could be heavy at times, with rates of up to 1 inch per hour between 2 a.m. and 8 a.m.

The NWS said the city could see anywhere from 2 to 4 inches of snow by the time the storm moves away before noon Saturday.

Meteorologist Samantha Thomas said this week had the potential for multiple snow events.

Unlike Tuesday’s storm, which mainly affected the northern parts of the region, Friday’s storm will track farther south and impact cities like Philadelphia, Washington, DC, and Baltimore with snow accumulation.

The National Weather Service (NWS) cautioned that the snow could create hazardous travel conditions, with reduced visibility and slippery roads.

Residents can see lingering snow showers throughout the day. There are a few bursts here and there.

But for the most part it’s going to be overnight and a lot of people are going to be waking up to snow tomorrow morning.
