Blizzard warnings were issued for New York City, New Jersey, and coastal East Coast communities as a late-winter storm approaches, affecting over 14 million people, marking NYC’s first blizzard warning in nine years. The National Weather Service predicts 1 to 2 feet of snow in some areas, with heavy snowfall rates by Sunday night, alongside potential flooding. Winds of 25 to 35 mph could lead to dangerous travel conditions and power outages. This storm follows the recent melting of previous snow, coinciding with Punxsutawney Phil’s prediction of six more weeks of winter.
