Is snow possible this weekend? Here’s what forecasters say

Here’s a radar forecast for this afternoon, showing the burst of snow, followed by a decrease in precipitation.

But don’t be fooled: The mercury and snow on the ground may cause pockets of sleet or freezing rain. High temperatures will climb into the upper 30s. East wind around 5 miles per hour. Any additional accumulation would fall on top of snow from last week’s nor’easter, which buried parts of the tri-state in more than a foot.

AccuWeather says that could mean a couple of inches of new snow accumulating by Sunday in northern New Jersey.

SUNDAY: Partly cloudy skies and chilly temperatures will be around for Sunday afternoon, with a high temperature of 52 degrees.

Mostly cloudy with a few spotty showers this morning, but the good news is it’s not too terribly cold out there.

For the weekend cloudy with a chance for a few passing showers but not expecting much.

Sunday brings a chance of snow showers before 7 a.m.

Winds will be 5 to 10 miles per hour with gusts up to 20 miles per hour.

Tonight: Mainly clear. Lows: Teens. Chance of showers and thunderstorms in the morning, then slight chance of showers in the afternoon. Low around 50. Temperature rising through the 40s by midnight, then near steady overnight. Highs in the low 40s and lows in the upper 30s.

The precipitation could change back to snow late Saturday night as temperatures drop again, Root said. Mostly sunny, with a high near 62.
