Unusual snow squalls swept through the tri-state region Saturday afternoon, bringing short-lived whiteouts to parts of the city and surrounding suburbs.
The National Weather Service issued alerts for the five boroughs, Long Island and parts of Connecticut shortly before 3 p.m. warning of the sudden storms.
Gray clouds swept in and winds picked up as the short bursts of fat-flaked snow moved through, even though temperatures remained in the upper 30s. There was no accumulation from the brief storms.
Temperatures should rise a bit on Sunday and return to the low- to mid-50s on Monday, said Christopher Tate, an associate meteorologist at Fox Weather
.
There’s a chance of rain Tuesday, and the thermometer could top 60 degrees on Wednesday before another front of cold air comes through on Thursday. But rain is likely again Friday, with temps topping out in the mid-40s.
