The updated forecast on timing and track of the storm calls for the snow to end from southwest to northeast as midnight approaches. “The heaviest precipitation looks to occur between roughly 4 and 9 p.m. during which time snowfall rates could reach or exceed 1 inch per hour,” the National Weather Service said.

A winter storm warning has been issued for New York, New Jersey and Connecticut as the entire region could get blanketed in snow.

The snow is likely to fall on Sunday from the Appalachians to New England. New York City may see its largest snowfall in years.
