By late evening, the storm&#8217;s crosshairs will&nbsp;be aimed&nbsp;at New York, Boston and the other municipalities along Interstate 95.&#8221;A fast-moving storm will impact the Northeast Monday night through Tuesday night with a plethora of precipitation types. Initially, enough cold air will be present to promote snow from Philadelphia to Boston Monday night into Tuesday. However, warmer air will turn snow to sleet and rain from south to north Monday night through Tuesday evening, making for a messy mixture of precipitation and a tricky morning and evening commute for many Tuesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At this time, 1-3 inches of snow is expected from Philadelphia to Boston, along with a messy coating of sleet and ice on top before a change to rain. Across the interior, 3-6\u201d of snow along with an icy mix is expected including Allentown, Pa. and Hartford, Ct. 6-12\u201d of snow is likely across northern New York and northern New England, benefiting ski areas ahead of the President\u2019s Day weekend. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;\u2026click on the above link to read the rest of the article\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Northeast Braces For Snow And Ice, Travel Disruptions Expected\u00a0\u00a0 A fresh&nbsp;round of snow, ice, and rain&nbsp;is&nbsp;hitting the mid-Atlantic this afternoon.&nbsp; By late evening, the storm is expected to&nbsp;sweep across&nbsp;the Northeast into Tuesday night.&nbsp;A quick&nbsp;burst&nbsp;of winter precipitation will be the primary threat&nbsp;across the interior (north of the dashed line) with rain closer to the coast.&nbsp; 11 [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[288,24377,24376,885],"class_list":["post-43727","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-environment","tag-extreme-weather","tag-freezing-rain","tag-northeast","tag-winter"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43727","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=43727"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43727\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":43728,"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43727\/revisions\/43728"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=43727"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=43727"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=43727"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
