Don't let another mild day fool you, folks.
A significant amount of snow is now expected to accumulate in the tristate area Saturday night into Sunday with as much as 4 to 5 inches being predicted from the quick-moving storm, according to the National Weather Service.
Winter Storm Watches are in effect from early Saturday night to early Sunday morning for northern New Jersey, the lower Hudson Valley and Fairfield County.
Friday will be cloudy with rain through the mid-afternoon, and the high temperature in the mid-40s.
Saturday will be sharply colder with a high in the low- to mid-30s and sun mixed with clouds during the day.
Snow will develop late Saturday night, the National Weather Service said.
The official forecast is for 1 to 5 inches across the forecast area, with lesser amounts where there will be mixing and higher amounts where it will remain all snow.
However, if a colder solution looks more reasonable, up to 7" is possible for parts of the area. Alternatively, if a warmer solution looks reasonable, then little, if any snow will fall, the weather service said.
Sunday will start off cloudy before becoming mostly sunny with a high in the mid-40s.
There is still much uncertainty surrounding the storm.
