UPDATE: Punishing late-season storm to deliver heavy rain, wind and even snow across Northeast

The calendar has flipped to April, but some areas across the Tri-State, mainly upstate New York, are bracing for snow this week. Even those missing the snow will see wintery chill, heavy rain, the risk of flooding and stiff winds, which will bring weather-related disruptions. The nor'easter will be a slow mover as it delivers significant snow to New England, extending the ski season, and showers will linger in the forecast across the region for days. The Yankees home-opener, though raw and cold, is looking like a go. And how about Monday's total solar eclipse? Clouds will likely cover large swaths of the path of totality, but upstate New York could be a sweet spot for viewing. And the New York City area, though 10 percent shy of totality, will enjoy a great shot of taking in the celestial spectacle, with darkening skies, dropping temperatures and wild animals reacting to the sudden dimming.
