NEW YORK (WABC) — A fast-moving clipper system is bringing as much as 3 to 6 inches of snow to parts of New York City and the Tri-State area.

The National Weather Service has issued a Winter Storm Warning for parts of New Jersey and a Winter Weather Advisory for New York City and much of the Tri-State into Sunday.

The snow started falling late Saturday night and continued Sunday morning.

We’re still expecting 1-3″ from Manhattan and points north and west, with the 3-6 inches expected on Staten Island and portions of Queens and Brooklyn, as well as Long Island and a good chunk of central and southern New Jersey.

The New York City Department of Sanitation (DSNY) has issued a Snow Alert into Sunday afternoon. A Snow Alert is the Department’s “higher level” snow-fighting notification, as opposed to the “lower level” Winter Operations Advisory.

It’s the DSNY’s first snow alert of the season. Crews were to begin highway brining operations on Friday night, applying brine before snow begins falling helps reduce accumulations on roadways.

All winter weather information and information about the City’s response to the storm can be found by visiting the City’s Severe Weather website at nyc.gov/snow or by calling 311.

Conditions will clear by Sunday afternoon, though temperatures will remain below freezing.

High pressure returns Monday, bringing bright but frigid weather with highs in the upper 20s to low 30s. A gradual warm-up is expected midweek, with temperatures reaching near 50 by Thursday.
