Rounds Of Snow In Brewster's Forecast

BREWSTER, NY — Temperatures approached 50 degrees Sunday in the Hudson Valley, but Mother Nature is fickle and she plans on reminding everyone that it's still winter for another seven weeks. There are multiple snow chances in the work week forecast.

Let's start with what we know: Monday will start out dry, but a wintry mix of snow and rain is possible in the afternoon before the precipitation becomes all snow by the evening. Just what will transpire — that's more complicated.

"Getting it cold enough to snow is one issue," said Bill Potter of Hudson Valley Weather. "The other issue, is getting moisture into the Hudson Valley… and this may be the hardest part."
