We honor members of our armed forces who lost their lives protecting the freedoms afforded to us as American citizens by our founding fathers. If it were not for their sacrifice and all who sacrificed before them, the United States of America would not be the place it is today. May our heroes rest in eternal peace. #TRFD #CTfire

[eweather @Eweather13]

⚠️ 🚨 No changes this morning. A blizzard is coming that will shut down the entire NE corridor.

This is the model blend…typically a conservative view.

Blizzard warnings already populating across coastal CT and all of Long Island including NYC. Winter storm warnings across the rest of the 4 southern counties of CT - these will expand too. Winter storm watches everywhere else. Warnings begin 6am Sunday and run through 6pm Monday.

Full update shortly.

[NWS New York NY @NWSNewYorkNY]

❄️Our new snowfall forecast brings 1-1.5 ft of snow area-wide, with the highest totals at the coast. Areas under a Blizzard Warning could see whiteout conditions with visibilities below a quarter mile in heavy blowing snow and winds gusting up to 55 mph.

[NWS New York NY @NWSNewYorkNY]

⚠️ A strong nor'easter will bring heavy snowfall to our area Sunday into Monday. We have upgraded our Winter Storm Watches to Blizzard Warnings along the coast and Winter Storm Warnings elsewhere.

[NWS New York NY @NWSNewYorkNY]

8PM STORM UPDATE | BIGGEST NYC SNOWFALL IN 5 YEARS — SNOW vs. SLEET BATTLE CONTINUES
Take a look at the battle unfolding just north of NYC. If this sleet line fails to make meaningful northward progress, we could squeeze out another 2–5″ across the Lower Hudson Valley, northern New Jersey, and much of Connecticut.

That’s the BOOM potential in this forecast — and it’s starting to verify.

PIX11 Snow Max FORECAST from Friday was: 18″
We’re on pace to over achieve it…

What’s driving this? An extremely tight thermal gradient at 850mb as the coastal low continues to strengthen. That sharp boundary is the difference between heavy snow and sleet — and right now, snow is holding its ground in key areas.

Apologies for fewer updates — I’ve been on TV nonstop since 2PM.

Back again tonight at 10PM on @PIX11News ❄️📺

1PM STORM UPDATE| HIGH SNOW RATIOS HAVE BEEN ACHIEVED.. GOING FORECAST REMAINS UNCHANGED WITH HIGHER END TOTALS
Will the arrival of early morning snow we tapped into very high snow ratios (unconfirmed 30:1+) The going forecast remains unchanged with slow advancement of the sleet line before strong FGEN banding starts to form this afternoon.

SPC has outlined (and I agree) for this area to achieve intense snowfall later this afternoon. It is not impossible to get over 2" snow rates per hour as the sleet line lifts north tightening the thermal gradient.

[NWS New York NY @NWSNewYorkNY]

Widespread heavy accumulating snow and sleet is expected Sunday morning into Monday. The storm has trended a little more north, which means a period of heavy snowfall will be followed by more sleet accumulation at the coast. Even this carries with it its own dangers.

[NWS New York NY @NWSNewYorkNY]

Heavy snow is expected Sunday morning into Sunday evening, transitioning to heavy wintry mix for the city/coast Sunday afternoon/evening. Lingering significant travel likely impacts late Sunday Night into Monday. Full Briefing HERE: https://t.co/610UeEEOhv
