WEATHER ALERT: 'Winter Storm Hektor' To Dump Snow, Freezing Rain On Monday's Commute in White Plains

Written by Lanning Taliaferro (Patch Staff)

Winter Storm Hektor will slam much of the mid-Atlantic with freezing rain, sleet and snow on Sunday night and during the Monday morning commute.

The National Weather Service issued both a Hazardous Weather Outlook and a Winter Weather Advisory for Southern Westchester, saying a wintry mix of sleet, snow and freezing rain will arrive on Sunday night and Monday morning.

The sleet will change over to plain rain before it may change back briefly to a snow-and-sleet mixture Monday evening, according to the National Weather Service.

Little or no snow and sleet accumulations are expected, along with a trace of ice.

Untreated roads could be slippery, making the morning commute more difficult than usual, according to the National Weather Service.

Hektor brought light icing to parts of Texas Friday and Saturday and is now heading to the north and east.

The threat of sleet and freezing rain Monday stretches along the heavily-populated I-95 Northeast urban corridor, making the Monday morning commute potentially challenging, according to The Weather Channel.
