Snow Tapers Off in New York, Weekend Turns Dry
Parts of New York are experiencing the final stages of a snowstorm as precipitation is expected to wind down by Friday evening. According to the National Weather Service (NWS), snowfall has been concentrated in colder and higher-elevation areas, with some locations, such as Cooperstown, already reporting up to 4 inches of snow. Additional snowfall of 1 to 3 inches is possible in the Catskills and other elevated regions, while lower elevations may see a slushy coating. Rain mixed with snow is expected in parts of Orange, Ulster, and Dutchess counties, but significant accumulation is unlikely in areas closer to New York City. The NWS predicts drier and milder conditions for the weekend, with temperatures reaching the upper 40s to around 50°F (8–10°C).
