The weather outside will soon become frightening.
Upstate New York could receive up to 6 feet of “extreme” snow as it braces for its coldest temperatures so far this season.
“It's going to be near freezing every morning for at least the next 10 days, probably two weeks,” Fox Weather meteorologist Cody Blood told the Post on Saturday. “And afternoon highs will be in the low to mid 40s every day this week as well.
“Longer term, until the beginning of next weekend, we may not even get out of the $30s,” he added.
Snow is also possible in the Big Apple on Wednesday, but it's not in the official forecast as of Saturday.
“That's the million-dollar question that everyone wants to know…and I don't rule it out,” Brad said.
This weather pattern is not common, the meteorologist continued.
“It's called the 'Clipper,' but we haven't had one in a long time,” he said. The storm is characterized by “atomic rain and snow that will rip through parts of the Northeast and the Great Lakes, and droplets could be seen over the city sometime Wednesday.”
Parts of the northern states are already dealing with a second day of disastrous amounts of snow that could extend over five days.
Snowfall in Harrisburg, New York, about 32 miles southeast of Watertown, is already approaching 3 feet and “more will come,” Brad said. “This is a five-day event. This situation is only going to get worse,” he warned.
Extreme lake-effect snow is also affecting parts of Pennsylvania, northeastern Ohio, and Michigan.
Governor Kathy Hochul declared a state of emergency late Friday due to “potentially dangerous and life-threatening snowstorm-like conditions along Lake Erie and Lake Ontario.”
Governor Josh Shapiro Deployed the Pennsylvania National Guard Erie County “to help stranded drivers and ensure emergency responders can reach those in need.” he announced at x Saturday.
