Tri-State braces for weekend snow as timeline shows peak accumulation
A major winter storm is headed for New York and New Jersey this weekend, triggering winter storm warnings and a state of emergency as Gov. Hochul activates the National Guard. The Tri-State area could see NYC 8–12 inches, North Jersey 12 inches or more, and coastal areas 5–10 inches, with inland zones possibly over 12 inches. Snow moves in Sunday morning (3–7 a.m.), intensifies 7 a.m.–2 p.m., then mixes with freezing rain/sleet 2–10 p.m. as warmer air moves in, before returning to snow Sunday night into Monday with winds 25–35 mph and up to 0.20 inches of ice accretion.
