The “big snowstorms" and "blizzard watch” mean the Hudson Valley is in the danger zone for some of the winter's biggest storms.

If these predictions ring true, expect multiple chances of big snow events this winter.

The forecast highlights an “active” storm track for the East Coast and Northeast. This means higher chances of major winter storms and significant snow events.
