Three things to know:

We are merely days away from a massive winter storm to come into the Hudson Valley that could bring around a foot of snow or more. The system arrives Sunday morning, around daybreak and leaves Monday afternoon. There is a chance of some mixed precipitation closer to the city, around south Westchester County on Sunday evening. A winter storm watch is in effect across the entire region.

Extremely cold air will rush in before the storm arrives. There are cold weather alerts in effect across the region for tonight into Saturday morning. Temperatures could feel as cold as 25 below zero by Saturday sunrise.

After the storm leaves, frigid air will remain. Temperatures do not warm up at all this entire upcoming week. Be prepared for highs struggling to get out of the mid-20s with morning temperatures trending in the single digits. This will keep the upcoming snowpack around for quite some time. Which will only reinforce a chill in the air.
