Coastal Storm Producing Snow, Sleet and Rain in the Northeast Today...

Doppler radar indicates that the rain/snow line now extends from near New York City southwestward to near Trenton, NJ.  Snow is falling heavily to the north of this line.  Sleet is also mixing in with the snow.  There is approximately one-half inch so far on the ground in Central New Jersey near Hopelawn in Middlesex County at noon.  Roads have snow on them and cars are covered with a thin coating.  The storm is moving slowly northeastward off the coast of Virginia.  The snow and rain is forecast to end by about 8 PM in and around New York City with the precipitation moving into New England tonight.  Partial sunshine with a few flurries or showers can be expected in the Northeast on Thanksgiving but most areas will be dry.
