Overview
- Winter weather advisories were expanded across parts of the Mid-Atlantic, New York City region, and southern New England as a coastal low tracked closer to shore than earlier forecasts suggested.
- Most locations are seeing a few inches of wet snow, with 3–5 inches common near New York City and 2–5 inches in southern New England, while localized bands could reach 6–9 inches in parts of southeastern Massachusetts and Rhode Island.
- Snow is forecast to wind down late Sunday into early Monday from the Mid-Atlantic through New England, with lingering showers in eastern New England and Maine before daybreak.
- Holiday travel was disrupted, with FlightAware reporting more than 2,700 delays and over 340 cancellations nationwide by Sunday morning, as JFK and LaGuardia led U.S. airports in scrubbed flights and the FAA issued a ground delay at Newark.
- Rare Southern snowfall was confirmed by the National Weather Service in the Florida Panhandle, with additional reports in Alabama and Georgia, even as forecasters warn of dangerous cold spreading across the central and eastern U.S. early this week.
