NYC Weather: Snow Promises Slippery Start To Week

NEW YORK – A hazardous weather outlook has been issued as New York City prepares for another snowfall Sunday night. Forecasters are expecting up to three inches.

Though it won't be as bad as the snowfall on Feb. 12, the National Weather Service is warning that it could continue into Monday's commute, for those working on President's Day, and it could be icy.

The snow is expected to be mixed with rain after 2 a.m. as temperatures dip to freezing. Snow is again in the forecast for Wednesday, though it's unknown yet how much to expect.
