Sunday Evening into Monday Morning: A Winter Storm Watch is in effect for most of the region Sunday afternoon through early Monday morning.

A significant storm system will likely impact the region Sunday evening into Monday morning.

A brief mix of sleet is possible with the transition.

• 5 to 9 inches for the Lower Hudson Valley, NE NJ, and much of southern Connecticut. 
• 4 to 6 inches for NYC, Long Island, and coastal southeastern Connecticut.
• This system has the potential to impact the Monday morning commute due to the combination of poor visibility and snow covered roads.
