Our first alert weather team issued a Yellow alert Sunday morning due to a coastal depression that will bring a mix of rain, snow and stormy winds to the coast, which will affect travel.

what are you expecting
Rainfall amounts are around 1 inch for many.
Snow falls well inland – above 750-1000 feet. Heavy, wet snow is expected in places such as Kiamisha, Monticello and Livingston Manor. They can stack 2-6 inches high. A place like Middletown could see a slushy mix, but the rain will fall mainly south of I-84.
Wind speeds could reach 30-45 mph on the New Jersey coast and on Long Island. This may cause water to accumulate and cause some minor beach erosion. Our coasts are at risk.

Saturday 10pm – Sunday 3am: Light to moderate rain will fall, with a little snow falling in colder areas.
