NYC Weekend Snow?

New Yorkers might see the first measurable snow of the season as early as Saturday morning! A quick-moving clipper system is set to bring snowflakes to the Tri-State Area. While significant accumulation isn't expected in the city, a dusting is possible if temperatures cooperate.

Areas north and west of the city could see 1 to 3 inches of snow due to colder temperatures.

Rain is predicted along the coast Friday morning, with a mix of rain and snow further inland, particularly in northern New Jersey and the Hudson Valley. Higher elevations might experience all snow.
