For southern Westchester, the National Weather Service said a slow moving low pressure system may bring a light snow accumulation to portions of the region Sunday morning into Sunday afternoon. Precipitation is likely to change to all rain Sunday evening into Monday morning, before potentially changing back to snow Monday afternoon into Monday night. This may result in messy travel conditions for the Sunday afternoon/evening and Monday afternoon/evening timeframe.
