A winter storm watch in effect from late Tuesday night through late Wednesday night as forecasters watch the development and motion of another coastal low expected to impact the region.
Heavy snow is possible, with total accumulations of six to nine inches, the National Weather Service said in a statement this morning. Localized amounts of up to a foot are possible, the weather service said.
The winter storm watch is in effect for Long Island, New York City, southern Connecticut and portions of northeast New Jersey.
“Plan on difficult travel conditions, including during the evening commute on Wednesday,” the weather service said. “Significant reductions in visibility are possible.”
