A far-reaching winter storm will affect the region Sunday night into Monday afternoon with moderate to heavy snow. We also need to monitor for mixing issues along the coast, which could cut down accumulations there.

The erratic models have shifted the track more in our direction and in general, are converging on a storm that would deliver widespread totals of over 4 inches or more, with greater certainty of over 6 inches in the hudson Valley and all of Connecticut.
Light snow will break out Sunday evening and become moderate to heavy at times overnight Sunday through Monday morning. Snow will taper off around noon on Monday.
The vast, far-reaching storm will affect areas of the mid-west all the way to the eastern seaboard (15 states in total); air travel will be significantly impacted throughout the weekend and through a good portion of Monday.
Behind the storm, dangerous cold will re-assert itself across the region. A deep snow pack will once again combine with a frigid Arctic air mass, which, in tandem will send actual air temps to the single digits Monday night and again Tuesday night. Wind-chill values will plummet to as much as -20 degrees on Tuesday.

The frigid blast of air will relent slowly through mid-week.
The active, wintry pattern will continue to produce generally cold, stormy weather through at least the 10th, and probably beyond that time.

Stay tuned.
