New York and their surrounding areas are prepared for a week marked by an unstable winter climate, with a series of storms that will bring snow, a mixture of precipitation and rain, as reported by different US media. The National Meteorological Service already issued alerts that anticipate variable accumulations of snow over the next few days.
According to ABCa new storm system will begin on Tuesday night, especially affecting the south of New Jersey, where a winter storm warning has been issued. “Unlike the storm last weekend, the accumulation range will range from nothing to the north to more than 15 cm (6 inches) in some areas of the south of New Jersey,” they said. The region of New York City You can wait between 2.5 and 7.5 cm (1 to 3 inches) of snow, extending from the center of New Jersey to Long Island.
For its part, NBC He assured that this system will mostly pass the south of the triestatal region, leaving more notable accumulations in Washington DC and the Delmarva Peninsula, with forecasts of up to 20 cm (8 inches) in some areas. However, he warned that “small displacements in the trajectory of the storm – especially if it moves further to the north – could generate great changes in the forecasts for New York City.”
The city of New York and the triestatal region They prepare for a new round of winter conditions, with a snowstorm that will arrive on Tuesday night. According to the forecasts of the National Meteorological Service, a moderate snow accumulation is expected, with significant variations depending on the geographical location.
In the metropolitan area of New York including Long Island and the center-north of New Jersey an accumulation of between 1 and 3 inches of snow is anticipated. This snowfall will be less intense than that of the previous weekend, but sufficient to generate slippery driving conditions and possible transport delays.
On the other hand, the south of New Jersey I could face more severe conditions. There a winter storm warning has been issued, since some areas are expected to accumulate up to approximately 15 cm. Ocean County, in particular, is under surveillance due to the risk of higher accumulations.
The northern limit of the significant snow accumulation will be approximately aligned with the interest 80, which crosses Pennsylvania and New Jersey. This division line will be extremely precise, which means that even a small change in the storm’s trajectory could considerably alter the amount of snow They receive different areas.
Meteorologists warn that this “sharp edge” of accumulated snow makes the prognosis more uncertain. A slight displacement to the north or the south could result in notable differences in the Fallen snowman in nearby areas.
After the passage of the snowfall on Tuesday, a new winter disturbance will impact the triestatal region between Wednesday night and Thursday morning. Unlike the storm Previous, this system will bring a combination of snow, winter mixture and rain, which could generate dangerous conditions for displacements.
The storm is expected to begin on Wednesday night with snowfalls, especially in the north and west areas of the city of New York. As the system progresses, temperatures will rise slightly, which will cause a snow transition to a winter mixture and, finally, to rain during the early hours of Thursday.
The winter mixing phase could include sleet and frozen drizzle, which would increase the risk of ice formation on roads, sidewalks and other surfaces exposed.
One of the main reasons for concern is The impact of the storm on Thursday’s displacements in the morning. The conditions are expected to be particularly slippery in the areas located north of New York City, where accumulated ice is more likely.
In the city of New York snow accumulation will be limited, with forecasts that indicate less than an inch (2.5 cm). However, the risk does not lie so much in the amount of snow and in the possible Black ice formation a phenomenon that can go unnoticed, but that is extremely dangerous for drivers.
The areas of the north and west of the city could see snow accumulations between 1 and 3 inches (2.5 to 7.5 cm), with more complicated management conditions due to the presence of compacted ice and snow.
The active winter pattern will continue towards the weekend, with another system of Storm that could impact the triestatal region between Saturday afternoon and Sunday. This new event presents uncertainty regarding the amount of snow, the possibility of ice and the presence of rains, which could significantly alter the weekend’s plans.
The storm is expected to begin on Saturday afternoon or night, initially as a winter mixture in some areas. As the system advances, the warmer temperatures are likely to make part of rainfall in rain, especially the New York City and coastal areas. However, to the north and west of the city, colder conditions could be maintained, which would favor snow accumulation and ice formation.
On Sunday it could become a predominantly rainy day in much of the metropolitan area, with the possibility that rain persists before colder air arrives at night.
The effects of the storm last weekend still feel in New York. According to Gothamist these were the most intense snowfall recorded in the season, leaving 7.87 cm (3.1 inches) in Central Park 9 cm (3.6 inches) at Laguardia airport and 8.6 cm (3.4 inches) in JFK. “It is the first time since February 2022 that the city sees more than 7.5 cm (3 inches) of snow in a single storm,” said the medium.
The National Meteorological Service and different media have emphasized that this unstable pattern will possibly continue until next week, with additional systems on the way. This winter season continues to surprise after a relatively moderate start for the region.
