“Coastal flooding is going to be a problem, with the orientation of the high pressure to the north,” the meteoroligst said.

“And where the storm is coming in, it’s going to create a strong easterly wind as over a long fetch of water, and that’s going to cause problems specifically at high tide in the areas that are prone to coastal flooding.”

The area will also be at risk of power outages during the storm, he said. 

“I think with the nature of the snow being fairly heavy and wet and mixing with sleet, and with the wind, we’re forecasting some pretty decent power outages mostly to the north of the city,” he said. 

All things considered, the storm prediction isn’t particularly unusual for this time of year, according to the forecaster.

“If you’re going to see a storm of this nature, this is pretty much the time of year you’d expect it,” he said. “We’re in the three coldest months of the year typically.”

Workers from the city Department of Transportation were out in the Times Square area Wednesday morning, using yellow carts to spread salt on the roads.

The city Department of Sanitation issued a snow alert^[2] that will begin at 2 p.m. Wednesday.

“Salt spreaders are already filled and ready to go,” the department said in a press release earlier this week.

“Additionally, the Department’s collection trucks will be pulled from collection duty and turned into snow plows, ready to plow snow once two inches of snow has fallen. Further, as conditions allow, the Department will use its ‘brine trucks’ to apply liquid salt to some early-to-freeze roads.”
