The most affected regions are expected to see a total of 10 to 16 inches of snow. The NWS Burlington, Vermont, forecast region, in particular, is predicted to experience the heaviest snowfalls, with up to 16 inches possible in some areas. In New York, parts of Herkimer County are bracing for 14 inches of snow, while other areas are seeing lake-effect snow add to the totals. Gusty winds are also expected to make driving conditions hazardous, as blowing snow could reduce visibility, particularly during the morning hours.
Meteorologists are urging caution for anyone traveling during this winter storm. The NWS Buffalo office warned that snow-covered roads and limited visibility will make driving difficult. Meanwhile, the NWS Albany office stressed the importance of slow and cautious driving due to the hazardous conditions expected throughout the day. In some parts of Vermont, travelers are advised to carry extra supplies, such as flashlights, food, and water, in case of emergency.
Though many of the winter alerts are expected to expire by Monday night, some could last into Tuesday morning depending on local conditions. With more snow in the forecast for Monday evening, the storm is expected to affect both travel and daily activities. The NWS recommends that residents stay informed of any updates and follow local weather advisories to stay safe.
This winter storm is part of a broader pattern of severe weather affecting multiple parts of the U.S. this week, with heavy snow also expected in the West Coast and Midwest. Winter weather experts suggest that millions of Americans across the country will experience some form of snow or wintry precipitation over the coming days.
For now, residents of the Northeast are encouraged to stay prepared, drive carefully, and heed the advice of local weather officials as the storm continues its path across the region.
