A significant snowstorm is possible this weekend in New York City. This massive winter storm system will impact millions of people across the country on Friday through Monday with snow, ice and wind. It will cause major travel delays and misery starting as early as Friday and continuing potentially through Monday.
There's a growing confidence for accumulating snow to hit New York City, with disruptive amounts of snow looking more likely. There are still some areas of uncertainty with this storm, including the exact timing and the exact placement, which will affect the amount of snow, duration, intensity, whether we see any freezing rain or icing mixed in with snow and the full timing of the storm.
Before we get there, temperatures are better for Thursday and Friday. There will be a plunge Friday night and into the weekend. The brutal and dangerous cold will be coupled with a winter storm to bring the worst that winter has to offer. Morning temperatures could feel around or below zero for the weekend.
