Yorktown Weather: Potential Nor'easter Looms Next Week

SOMERS, NY — Friday’s snow was a little slow in materializing but it did finally arrive and before you know it, it will be gone. Meanwhile all eyes turn toward Tuesday into Wednesday where a significant Nor’easter may lead to a serious snow accumulation.

But, how quickly the storm strengthens and where it tracks will determine how much snow, wind and coastal flooding we'll get, said Alex Sosnowski, AccuWeather senior meteorologist.
