Winter Storm Watch: winter storm watch in forecasts as nor'easter possible Sunday–Monday, NYC expected 6–10 inches
The term winter storm watch appears in current forecasts as an East Coast storm and nor'easter is listed as possible Sunday and Monday, and one forecast expects 6–10 inches of snow for New York City. This development matters now because the forecast window spans a weekend period when timing and totals will determine travel and operational decisions across the region.
Winter Storm Watch: timing for the nor'easter
Forecasts flag an East Coast storm and a nor'easter as possible on Sunday and Monday. The timing in those forecasts places the primary snowfall risk across the weekend into early next week, with the most explicit snowfall projection focused on the Sunday event for the New York City area.
winter storm watch: expected NYC totals
One forecast specifically calls for a Sunday snow event expected to drop 6–10 inches on New York City. That projection frames the local impact scenario for the metropolitan area and provides a concrete totals range for planners and residents to use when assessing potential service interruptions and travel planning.
Outlook and conditional scenarios
The current outlook is built on two clear, observable points: an East Coast storm or nor'easter is possible Sunday–Monday, and a Sunday snow event is expected to produce 6–10 inches in New York City in at least one forecast. If the system organizes as shown in those projections, the NYC totals cited would be the principal measurable impact. Forecasts and official briefings will likely refine timing and exact accumulations as the event approaches.
Key takeaways
- An East Coast storm and nor'easter are possible Sunday and Monday.
- One forecast expects a Sunday snow event to drop 6–10 inches on New York City.
- The phrase winter storm watch appears in coverage tied to these weekend forecasts.
Monitor guidance closely through the weekend for updates to timing and totals; the known dates are Sunday and Monday, and the 6–10 inch projection for NYC defines the current high-impact scenario.
