Heavy Snowfall Expected For The Area

While last weekend's forecast may not have held up for our area, it's looking like we'll get our fair share of snow starting tomorrow night.

The National Weather Service is calling for between 6 to 12 inches of snow for Union County, starting late Tuesday and heading into Wednesday night.

Low pressure is forecast to develop along the Southeast coast early Tuesday morning, then rapidly deepen as it tracks Northeast to just east of Montauk Point by Wednesday evening.

As the storm intensifies, east to Northeast winds will become strong and gusty during the day on Wednesday. This will cause blowing and drifting of snow, with near blizzard conditions possible.

The snow is likely to be heavy at times on Wednesday, before slowly tapering off that night.

The National Weather Service is currently predicting another dumping of heavy snow for that area come Tuesday night.

Regardless of how much we get, if the heaviest of the snowfall hits Wednesday morning, it could have a significant impact on morning commutes and potentially delay school openings.
