SNOW, WINTRY MIX TAPERING OFF

Snow is starting to taper off from west to east across Long Island. Most of Long Island will be done with the snow and mixed showers before 9 p.m. Please continue to use caution when traveling. Roads are wet and slippery in some cases, with temperatures in the lower to mid-30s. Breaks in the clouds will develop as snow ends. As expected, just some coatings of snow are around Nassau and Suffolk Counties from this. Share any photos of it with us on social media if you'd like!
Areas of black ice will form after the snow showers end as temperatures drop to around or slightly below freezing overnight and into Friday morning.
