Areas of New York are forecast to be battered by several inches of snow into Saturday morning as the state is among several in the Northeast and northern Mid-Atlantic regions grappling with winter weather.

The National Weather Service predicted that there was a moderate risk of "hazardous cold" across the Northern Plains, with low temperatures that could get down to -10 degrees and feel even colder with wind chill. There is also a slight risk of heavy snow across the Great Lakes and the northeast.

“A storm has the potential to snarl transit for those even traveling locally across portions of the Midwest and Northeast on Thanksgiving Day, even those chasing Black Friday deals could contend with travel challenges,” explained AccuWeather Senior Meteorologist Tyler Roys.
