New York City Emergency Management has issued a Travel Advisory for Monday, February 9, 2015. The National Weather Service has issued a Winter Weather Advisory from midnight tonight until 6 AM Tuesday.
A mix of sleet and rain is expected this evening and will transition to freezing rain after midnight. This wintry mix will continue through Monday evening and will taper off overnight Monday into early Tuesday morning.
Widespread heavy rain is expected to continue across much of the West Coast this weekend. The heaviest rainfall will occur across northern California and southern Oregon, where as much as 6-10 inches of rainfall is forecast over the next two days. While beneficial for this drought-stricken region, the heavy rainfall also poses a threat for flash flooding.
The NYC area should prepare for hazardous weather with slushy days ahead as snow, sleet and rain is expected to continue falling through Monday.
