WCBSTV reports: Residents and commuters across the tri-state are waking up to shades of winter on this messy Tuesday morning.
A strengthening coastal storm is affecting conditions all over the northeast, with heavy rains and winds especially troubling in parts of New York City, Long Island, northern New Jersey, southwestern Connecticut and much of the lower Hudson Valley.
Rain intensity is fluctuating from light to heavy in the city. But parts of Sullivan and Ulster have not been as lucky, seeing heavier rains with even the possibility of snow.
CBS 2 HD Meteorologist John Elliot advises morning commuters to delay their start if possible. The flood advisory issued for parts of the tri-state is causing heavy delays on most roadways, including both highways and small side roads. But as Elliot points out, it will be the winds that pose the most danger for the tri-state on Tuesday. As the day progresses, the rain will slow down, but the winds will only strengthen.
Winter weather, winter storm, flood and wind advisories have been issued already for most of the tri-state.
Elliot says the conditions are reminiscent of a March day, with temperatures typical of a December day. Temperatures shouldn't exceed a high of 45 degrees, with a low of 36 in the late evening hours.
The howling winds will continue though the evening. On the bright side however, the rains will have ended. But it will be quite chilly, with temps dipping into the mid 30's in the city by day break on Wednesday.
The coastal storm will be centered well to our north by Wednesday morning, but the tri-state will still experience gusty winds. As the coldest air mass of the season continues to settle in we'll have a tough time getting out of the 40s tomorrow.
