Meterologists reveal this much more snow is expected to hit NYC this winter

Prepare for potential whiteout conditions.

This winter, New York City is forecasted to receive between 17 and 21 inches of snowfall, which is an increase from the under 13 inches recorded last year, according to AccuWeather’s latest report.

The situation may be even more severe for Buffalo, which is bracing for a staggering 90 to 100 inches of snow, experts say.

“In December, we anticipate some storm systems emerging from western Canada, moving into the central U.S., and then tracking along the mid-Atlantic coast,” warned Paul Pastelok.

Despite the weather patterns this fall being similar to last year’s, unexpected storms might flow from the midwestern and western regions to the East Coast, bringing significant snowfall, he added.

“Currently, our forecast figures for New York City are cautious, but we are keeping an eye out for the possibility of a more impactful winter season,” Pastelok noted.

Nevertheless, AccuWeather indicates that the total snowfall is likely to fall short of the city’s average of 29.8 inches for winter, with overall temperatures expected to remain around normal levels.

Looking ahead, an “intense cold blast” could sweep from the central U.S. towards the East Coast in early February, Pastelok reported.

“February appears to be a bit colder, and we might begin observing more storms originating from the southwest, similar to last year. However, the mix of rain and snow continues to be a concern, which could cause travel disruptions,” Pastelok cautioned.
