Winter Weather Advisory


... Winter Weather Advisory remains in effect from noon Saturday
to 8 am EST Sunday...

A Winter Weather Advisory remains in effect from noon Saturday to
8 am EST Sunday.

Snow is expected to develop over southeastern New York City by
mid afternoon before spreading from west to east throughout the
day. Snow will then continue to fall through Saturday night and
become heavy at times. The snow will taper off shortly after
sunrise on Sunday.

The low will pass close enough to Long Island that the snow will
mix with and possibly change to sleet for a period late Saturday
night. There is the possibility of freezing rain late Saturday
night as well. This mixing of precipitation types will limit
total snow accumulations.

Total snow and sleet accumulations from this system will range
from 3 to 6 inches with lower amounts within a few miles of the
Atlantic where there is the greatest potential for a period of
all sleet late Saturday night.

A Winter Weather Advisory means that periods of snow... sleet... or
freezing rain will cause travel difficulties. Be prepared for
slippery roads and limited visibilities... and use caution while
driving.
