***Moderate to Heavy Snow Early This Evening*** Bands of moderate to heavy snow will move across the area through 8pm. Snowfall rates will increase to one half to one inch per hour in the heaviest snow. Conditions will begin deteriorating, especially after sunset, as temperatures continue falling below freezing.

Coastal Flood Warning
Issued: 8:22 PM Feb. 22, 2026 – National Weather Service
...COASTAL FLOOD WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM 10 PM THIS EVENING TO 2 AM EST MONDAY... * WHAT...1 to 2 ft of inundation above ground level likely in vulnerable areas near the waterfront and shoreline. * WHERE...In New Jersey, Hudson, Eastern Bergen, Eastern Essex and Eastern Union Counties. In New York, New York (Manhattan), Richmond (Staten Island), Kings (Brooklyn) and Southern Queens Counties. * WHEN...From 10 PM this evening to 2 AM EST Monday. * IMPACTS...Widespread minor to locally moderate coastal flooding is expected in the most vulnerable locations near the waterfront and shoreline. Expect around 1 to 2 ft of inundation above ground level in low lying, vulnerable areas. Some roads and low lying property including parking lots, parks, lawns and homes/businesses with basements near the waterfront will experience shallow flooding. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...This water level forecast has been leaned towards a high end scenario, providing a margin of safety. It is highly dependent on timing of windshift from northeast to north storm force winds with respect to the time of high tide. If shift to northerly winds occurs earlier than time of high tide, water levels will fall to the low end or even below the forecast range. Ice cover in the bays and harbors could exacerbate flooding and cause damage to north to northeast facing shoreline structures. PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... Take the necessary actions to protect flood-prone property. If travel is required, do not drive around barricades or through water of unknown depth. && Time of high total tides are approximate to the nearest hour.
