<\/p>\nNew York City\u2019s first accumulating snow is looking like a near certainty this weekend.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The National Weather Service has issued a winter weather advisory for New York City, Long Island and much of Central and South New Jersey for Saturday night into Sunday morning.<\/p>\n
It won\u2019t be a blockbuster snow event, but snow lovers should be delighted nonetheless.\u00a0In the city, people will wake up Sunday morning to around two inches of fresh snow on the ground.\u00a0Expect less farther inland and more on eastern Long Island and down the Jersey Shore.\u00a0 <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Highest totals will be around 4 inches or so, with isolated higher amounts.<\/p>\n
So when does it all start?<\/p>\n
Precipitation from the storm moves in late Saturday evening and could start as rain at the immediate coast.\u00a0 Saturday temperatures will be above freezing. But temperatures will quickly dip to freezing or slightly below overnight, when the brunt of the precipitation falls, and that means it will change over to snow.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Don\u2019t be surprised to see a crisp layer of white outside your window when waking up Sunday morning!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Typically, New York City gets its first measurable snow sometime during the second week of December, so Sunday morning\u2019s snow is right on schedule.<\/p>\n
The last measurable snow in NYC was on Feb. 20, 2025 \u2014 almost 300 days ago!\u00a0The last inch of snow on record was a little over a week before that, on Feb. 11.<\/p>\n
Temperatures will largely remain below freezing into early next week, so whatever snow does accumulate, it\u2019ll stick around for everyone to enjoy for at least a couple of days before we hit a warm spell and the snow melts away.<\/p>\n
