Snowy Commute, Biting Cold Expected for Groundhog Day


Staten Island Chuck will reveal Friday whether we’re in for an early spring or six more weeks of winter. If the snowy and frigid forecast is any indication, you better hang on to your winter jacket.

Thursday was dry and warmer than average, but a cold front began bringing rain late in the evening. As temperatures plummet, snow could fall amid single digit wind chills, Storm Team 4 says.

Storm Team 4 said the snow will arrive in the western suburbs first before moving into the city sometime after midnight.

The snow is expected to linger into the morning rush, making for a slick commute. The city will see one inch of snow at most, while Long Island and areas to the northwest of the city may see as much as three inches, according to Storm Team 4. 

After the flakes move out, bitter cold and blustery winds stick around for Friday and Saturday. Wind gusts of more than 35 mph will make it feel more like the single digits or teens, Storm Team 4 said.

Temperatures should warm into the 40s for Super Bowl Sunday. There’s a chance of rain in the evening and that snow is possible to the northwest of the city, Storm Team 4 says.

The roller coaster weather continues next week, when lows hit the 20s but highs approach the 50s.
