Hour-By-Hour Forecast for March's 1st Snow Storm

Welcome to March—which looks a lot like February thus far.

A Winter Weather Advisory is in effect for Putnam, Rockland and northern Westchester, which could receive up to six inches of snow beginning later today and ending early Monday, just in time for another enjoyable commute back to work.

The National Weather Service warns that snow-covered surfaces will cause travel difficulties and hide already icy spots.

There seems to be new accumulating snow every Monday, so in reality this is becoming old hat for us.

The NWS predicts total accumulation of 4-6 inches. Bill Potter over at Hudson Valley Weather says dry air along the northern edge of the storm could lower totals in the mid-Hudson Valley.
