Winter weather alerts were issued for parts of New York state Thursday as the region prepares to be walloped by a powerful winter storm before millions of Americans are set to hit the roads for Thanksgiving.
Forecasters say up to 8 inches of snow may fall in some parts of the state, while other areas will likely be drenched by some much-needed rain.
“Snow will break out, mostly across Pennsylvania and parts of central New York state. There will be heavy, wet snow throughout Thursday,” Fox Forecast Center meteorologist Greg Diamond told The Post.
Precipitation is expected to pour down on the tri-state area through at least Friday night, possibly into the weekend, Diamond added.
Areas expecting snow, including parts of northeast Pennsylvania and south-central New York state, near Binghamton and the Catskills, may see up to 8 inches of white flurries.
