CBS New York reports on the projected snow that is expected to hit Central Park and its surronding areas. Depending upon whom you believe, we can get anywhere from a dusting to a few inches. Late Thursday, three of four forecast models agreed that totals could hit the area hard, socking some parts of the area with 10 inches of snow. By Friday night, most of the models showed the storm tracking to the east — some so far to the east that they forecast the city getting no snow at all.
It has seemed like spring – and even summer – throughout much of the month of March, but winter may come back with a vengeance for the very occasion of the first day of actual spring. In advance of the likely snow, Mayor Bill de Blasio has ordered a travel advisory for the city for all day Sunday. The mayor warned that temperatures will only reach the 30s during the day on Sunday and will drop near freezing Sunday night.
The forecast seems like something befitting of a remote arctic tundra compared with the conditions in New York City on Friday. The day started stunningly in Central Park, and people were out running, blowing bubbles, and even riding unicycles. For anyone who has taken a walk in Central Park, one can see daffodils, forsythia, cherry trees blooming.
