A Winter Storm Targets New York And New Jersey With Warnings And 6–10 Inches Expected
Hi, this is Meteorologist Steve Pelletier, and I am the weatherman. This is a special weather update on your Friday, 26th day of the month of December 2025, a month that's been showing about six degrees below normal. This expected snowfall, probably above normal snowfall for the first time in quite a while in New York City and much of northern New Jersey, southeast New York, Connecticut, and Massachusetts. The latest blend of information of all the weather models that we have available to us. And there's so many, you wouldn't imagine just how many. They're from England, from Germany, from Korea, China, also from Japan, but just the U.S. models, the Canadian models, the UK, the United Kingdom models, all combined to come up with some type of idea of what's going to actually happen. And they do this about four times a day. It's a blend of all those models. And what it shows is uh snowfall across the northeast. Here are the amounts. Now we do have winter storm warnings in effect for central and northern New Jersey, northeastern PA, New York City, Long Island, Connecticut, western Massachusetts, and just about all of central and southern New York, from about Saratoga down to the Jersey border, westward all the way out to Utica, Rome, and even to Rochester. That's where the heaviest will be, probably centered somewhere around Albany, New York, where they're looking at between eight and ten inches of snow. About nine inches of snow is a possibility in coastal Connecticut from about Greenwich up through Stanford and all the way up and through the Hartford area. And even in central Long Island at Iselift and Comack and Smithtown, somewhere between eight and ten inches of snowfall, a possibility in this storm. New York City uh possibly getting as much as six to eight inches there. Uh six to eight inches of snowfall across northern New Jersey, including much of, if not all, of Bergen County, uh eastern and western Essex, uh Passaic and up in Sussex and Morris County, where they usually get a lot. And even Union County has the possibility of between, let's see, uh four and six inches of snowfall. As you go further south around the Jersey shore, about three inches expected in uh sections around uh northeastern Monmouth County, and that's Rumson and Sandy Hook all the way down to the highlands, and then uh even down to Tom's River, maybe an inch of snow because they're going to get some rain down there and some sleet as well. And also just traces, generally less than an inch, from uh central and coastal sections of Ocean County all the way down to Atlantic, and then possibly even just dry at Cape May. You know, Cape May is as far south as northern Washington, D.C. So uh it is uh extending quite far south in New Jersey. Delmarva not looking at very much except for maybe up around Dover and uh around the Wilmington area where they might get a coating to an inch or so. And down at DC and Baltimore, looking generally on the dry side. So those are the amounts as of the early afternoon on Friday. We'll update this as we get closer to the situation, which should be starting somewhere in the late afternoon and evening hours today. I'm Eddy Major, Steve Pelletier, and I am the weatherman. Hope I have a great day today. And we'll talk to you a little bit later on on this Friday, 26th day of December. See you then.
