April Fools’ Day is tomorrow, but Mother Nature wants to play a little joke on Long Island a day early.
Two weeks into spring, up to an inch of snow may fall across the island by the end of Tuesday night, according to the National Weather Service.
Rain is expected to begin this afternoon, but as the temperature drops this evening, that rain will either mix with snow or turn to all snow.
