In the latest forecast by the National Weather Service, snow is now expected to start late Wednesday night, Jan. 2. In an earlier forecast, the projected arrival time had been around 1 a.m., Thursday, Jan. 3.

Snow is likely between 10 p.m. Wednesday and 4 a.m. Thursday, with about a half-inch of accumulation possible.

The new timing means the system is less likely to affect the morning commute.

There is still a chance of snow through 7 a.m. Thursday, but the chance between 4 a.m. and 7 a.m. is 30 percent.

Morning clouds will give way to sun in the afternoon with the high temperature rising to the mid-40s.

Friday, Jan. 4 will be mostly sunny with a high in the mid-40s.

A wintry mix is possible late Friday night into Saturday north of I-287 and the Merritt Parkway where the temperature will be at or below freezing. Southern parts of the area could see rain.
