More Snow, More Winter Coming for New Rochelle: Work Week Weather

The latest storm brought more snow Monday morning, causing some school districts in the Hudson Valley to delay opening for a couple of hours and even close for the day.

Quite a contrast, eh? On Friday in Poughkeepsie the high was 78 degrees and 36 hours later, it was 33 degrees, Hudson Valley Weather pointed out.

The arctic chill that set in Saturday will continue for the next few days. That plus more rain, sleet and snow on Monday could make for a tricky Tuesday commute.

"Plunging temperatures Monday night will cause any wet or slushy areas on untreated roads and sidewalks in New England or southern New England to freeze," AccuWeather Senior Meteorologist Kristina Pydynowski said.

While the snow chances end after tonight, at least for now, Mother Nature is keeping a lid on temperatures this week. It’s going to feel like winter several days this week, and we could drop into the teens late Tuesday.
