NYC Weather Forecast: Nor'easter Could Hit First Day Of Spring

NEW YORK, NY – This winter seems to never end. Yet another nor'easter – what would be the fourth in a month – could make its way toward the city next week and strike on the first day of spring.

The date, March 20, is still six days away and the confidence level in any weather forecast that far out is low, but it's becoming clear that March's lion is going to roar into the second half of the month.

"There is potential for another storm system next Tuesday," the National Weather Service's New York office said in a forecast discussion Wednesday morning.

Here's what AccuWeather is saying:

A large storm is likely to track over the Central states early next week. The latest indications are this storm will turn eastward. That storm or a secondary storm may strengthen along the Atlantic coast by the middle of next week. Depending on the track and strength of that storm, parts of the mid-Atlantic, or New England or both areas may face yet another nor'easter with gusty winds, snow inland and rain or snow at the coast.
