Latest Forecast From Storm Team 4
Oh, the weather outside is ... surprisingly mild, at least for now. But there's a chance some areas near New York City could see accumulating snow this weekend.
After a pleasant Thursday overall with clearer skies and above-normal highs in the 50s, temperatures will turn noticeably colder as a north wind moves through overnight. Expect morning lows in the 30s and afternoon highs in the 40s for Friday and Saturday, but both days will still be fairly seasonable and feature plenty of sun.
The next weather-maker arrives in the tri-state area Sunday night into Monday — a weak, low-pressure system that will run into cold air and bring us a taste of winter.
New York City, Long Island and coastal areas should see mostly rain from the approaching system, but a few snowflakes could mix in overnight Sunday night to early Monday morning as temperatures drop. The more distant suburbs, however, could pick up a few inches of snow.
