SNOW TOTALS: The bulk of the snow and ice totals from Sunday's storm are in the 7- to 12-inch range across Nassau and Suffolk counties.
STORM PROGRESSION: This was officially the most widespread, highest snowfall on Long Island since the January 29, 2022 blizzard. Snow began changing to sleet shortly after 2 p.m. Sunday afternoon. It is still windy, with gusts over 20 to 30 mph at times. Scattered power outages will continue to be possible overnight. While the steadiest wintry mix is over, spotty snow or mixed showers can linger overnight. Ice on top of snow is continuing to cause dangerous travel. We are still expecting another round of light snow during Monday morning which can lead to additional snow accumulations of a coating to 2 inches.
DANGEROUS TRAVEL AND CLEANUP: Going forward, the snow will be much more difficult to manage and clean up. Please use extreme caution! This is now a heavy cement-like mixture of snow and ice on the ground. Roads continue to be treacherous. Please let road crews do their jobs and avoid travel as best as you can.
LOOKING AHEAD: While no major additional storms are on the horizon just yet, this snow and ice and tricky travel is not going anywhere all week! Arctic air will be affecting all Long Islanders this week with high temperatures mostly in the 20s and nighttime lows in the single digits to low teens. There will be a few additional periods of snow showers on Monday which can lead to some additional light accumulation on top of the ice and snow on the ground now.
