Still, we're lucky. The Hudson Valley will narrowly miss two storm systems — one bringing snow upstate and to New England through Tuesday.

"A general 3-12 inches of snow will fall from northeastern upstate New York to northern New England," said AccuWeather Senior Meteorologist Alex Sosnowski.

The other on its heels will pull lake-effect snow into western New York through Wednesday.

Temps will continue to be lower than normal for the end of November, the NWS said.
