What will happen?: The forecast could change, and change again, before the weekend. While forecasters are fairly confident that a storm will develop, key details — including its strength, where it will go and how much snow or ice it will deliver — remained uncertain on Tuesday.

A powerful winter storm is expected to bring up to 16 inches of snow and frigid temperatures to the NYC area, including parts of NJ and CT, this weekend.

A winter storm is headed to the Tri-State Area with heavy snow expected. New Yorkers could see 6-12 inches Saturday night into Monday.

What to Know A foot or more of snow could blanket the NYC area this weekend, as much of the U.S. is bracing for a massive winter storm. Parts of the region, like Poughkeepsie, could see 18+ inches. It appears the storm will arrive Sunday morning and will lead to hours of snowfall.

What to Know A whopper of a winter storm is set to impact a large chunk of the U.S. – from Texas to the East Coast – this weekend. It’s unclear this far in advance just how much we might get. A northern track means the low-pressure system will be closer to the tri-state and snow is more likely.

Most of the North Country could see 8 to 12 inches of snow by Monday night. Snow totals in the capital region could be over a foot.
