Meteorologist Dan Zarrow says...

Could this be our first widespread snow accumulation of the 2015-2016 winter season? Yes... but it won't be much, and accumulation is not quite a sure bet. I have no doubt it will be cold enough to snow Tuesday evening. Falling snow is likely. And light accumulation, especially on colder non-asphalt surfaces, is possible.

Our official forecast calls for a widespread dusting of snow on the ground by Wednesday morning, especially in North Jersey and Central Jersey. Up to an inch of snow accumulation is possible in the higher elevations of northwestern New Jersey. It's about time.
