The National Weather Service’s new map shows between 8 and 12 inches of snow could fall in parts of Sussex, Passaic, Bergen, Morris and Warren counties. Parts of the Poconos could see the same.
Snowfall is expected to begin Monday evening, Feb. 11 as a wintry mix and change to snow overnight across North Jersey, the Jersey Shore, and southeastern Pennsylvania/greater Philadelphia.
“It will snow in New York City, but probably not until near the very end of the storm on Tuesday,” AccuWeather Chief On-Air Meteorologist Bernie Rayno said.
“The snowfall accumulation from the storm depends on whether the second part of the storm can tap enough cold air,” the AccuWeather report continues.
“A weaker storm that fails to gather cold air and tracks farther to the south may fail to produce much snow. If the storm intensifies rapidly near the Northeast coast, rain may transition to heavy, accumulating snow in the zone from New York City to Philadelphia and perhaps Washington, D.C.”
