We're celebrating the new year with some snow showers this evening. Although the snow showers will be scattered and only a dusting is expected for most of the island, the timing of the snow would impact people heading home from midnight countdown parties.

Snow showers will reduce could make sidewalks or untreated roads slippery. Take it slow. The last time it snowed for the midnight countdown was December 31, 2009 (16 years ago!) so it'd be quite a moment if the snow flurries coincide with the confetti falling in Times Square.

Increasing clouds. High in the mid 30s.

A few snow flurries are expected from 10 p.m. to 2 a.m. Totals are less than 1 inch.

New Year's Day

Cold and windy. Temperatures near 30 in the morning dropping into the 20s in the afternoon. Wind gusts may reach 35 mph dropping wind chill values into the teens in the afternoon.

Friday morning

Very cold. Temperatures in the upper teens with wind chills near 0F.
