Snow will likely turn to rain during Sunday night’s winter storm, as temperatures rise above freezing, according to a meteorologist, the NY Post reports.
Tri-state area residents can expect “an inch or two of slushy snow, then rain,” AccuWeather senior meteorologist John Gresiak said in an interview. “They’ll be some snow coming in Sunday evening, probably around 9 or 10 o’clock. But it will very quickly in the city and other coastal areas change to rain,” he said.
The New York metro area won’t see the sort of accumulation expected in western New York. Buffalo and Rochester are looking at 12-18 inches. Late Sunday night and Monday morning the metro area will likely see “heavy rains” and winds of 30-40 miles per hour, out of the east, he said. Gusts could reach 59 mph.
