A winter weather advisory was issued late Sunday for numerous counties spanning the tri-state area due to the looming threat of wintry conditions. Residents in the affected counties should prepare for the likelihood of snowfall followed by freezing rain as the night progresses. While ice accumulations are anticipated to be minimal, ranging from just a light glaze to a few hundredths of an inch, higher elevation areas may experience up to an inch or two of snow accumulation.
The potential for icy conditions poses a risk of creating hazardous road conditions come Monday morning, especially for commuters. Fortunately, residents of New York City can expect to dodge the wintry mix, with precipitation anticipated to transition into rain by mid-morning on Monday. However, this respite will be short-lived as another round of rain is forecasted to arrive late Monday night, clearing out before dawn on Tuesday. A third round of precipitation is expected to sweep in on Wednesday night, ensuring that residents keep their winter gear close at hand for the majority of the week ahead.
In light of these weather developments, it is imperative that individuals exercise caution and remain prepared for the fluctuating conditions that lie ahead. Stay informed, stay safe, and be ready to adapt to the changing weather patterns as we navigate through this wintry spell.
