“Strong Nor’Easter” To Bring Heavy Wet Snow Tuesday

The New York Times reports:

An early spring storm is expected to bring heavy snow to the interior Northeast, particularly New York, on Monday into Tuesday, raising the potential for downed trees, power interruptions and difficult travel, forecasters said. In New York State, which is expected to get the brunt of the storm, snowfall of up to six inches is possible in some northern counties, according to the National Weather Service.

Lily Chapman, a meteorologist with the Weather Service in Binghamton, N.Y., said on Sunday that one of the greatest concerns was that the storm was expected to bring heavy, wet snow. “That’s the kind of stuff that can bring down trees because it does weigh so heavily on them,” Ms. Chapman said. “So, you will be looking at your risk for power outages, and it’s also a little more difficult to shovel.”
