Foot of Snow Expected to Hit NYC Overnight

Before you get to uncork your first "Spring Breaaaaak!" scream, the arrival of March appears to be playing one its cruel (or delightful) tricks on us as it comes in with a storm that looks like it may be the heaviest accumulation we've received all winter. The National Weather Service in effect for twenty-four hours beginning at 6 p.m. this evening. They are calling for six to ten inches of snow to have fallen by tomorrow, coming down heavy at times throughout the night. ( are calling for as much as 13 inches to hit Manhattan by morning.) Temperatures are expected to be lower than normal for the next few days, so the white blanket might just stick around for a while.
