According to Hudson Valley Weather, Thursday’s storm is one that’s extremely complex and still hard to fully predict.
“By Thursday afternoon, an intense Nor'easter will be off the eastern seaboard, with hurricane force winds well offshore,” Hudson Valley Weather wrote on Facebook. “A meteorological marvel for sure... but not so marvelous to forecast.”
Snow is expected to begin between 4 a.m. and 8 a.m. moving from south to north. Snow should be heavy between 9 a.m. and 1 p.m. with the storm tapering off between 2-6 p.m. from south to north.
According to Hudson Valley Weather, most of Ulster, Orange, and Dutchess Counties is expected to see 2 to 6 inches of snow. Putnam, Rockland and Westchester Counties could see 4 to 8 inches with some areas receiving up to a foot of snow. The Catskills will likely see a coating.
Because of the storm system, some parts of Orange and Dutchess Counties could 4 to 8 inches of snow. The more east you live, the greater chance you have of seeing a higher snow total.
