Saturday, January 24, 2026 - Weather Discussion

 

Quite a snowstorm on the way…

 

Two disturbances will merge along the Gulf Coast today and then move northeastward, exiting the Middle Atlantic Coast tomorrow night. With the fresh cold air in place today, this will cause snow to develop early tomorrow morning from southwest to northeast across our area early tomorrow morning,  becoming heavy from the late morning into the evening, the snow will mix with or change to sleet and freezing rain in the late afternoon and early evening in East Central and Southeastern PA, NJ (excluding far NW NJ), far Southeastern NY State, NYC, Long Island, and Fairfield County, CT, and to rain in Southern and East Central NJ, and on much of Long Island (except near NYC).  The precipitation will end by midnight Sunday night in most locations.

 

Total possible snowfall accumulation prior to any changeover:

 

8-12 inches:  Southern Half of NJ (roughly a line from Trenton East to Asbury Park)

 

12-16 inches:  Southeastern PA, Central NJ (roughly north of a line from Trento to Asbury Park to south of a line from roughly Clinton, to Morristown, to Englewood Cliffs), NYC, Long Island

 

15-20 inches:  East Central and Northeastern PA, Northwestern NJ, Southeastern NY State, Fairfield County, CT

 

It will then be vary cold through next week and into the following week with the potential for another snowstorm next Sunday into Monday…
