Thanks, Harv. What is Pink?

Blue is Winter Storm Watch
Pink is a Winter Storm Warning

For any kind of weather a Watch means the potential is there to "meet the conditions."

For any kind of weather a Warning means confidence is very high that you'll meet the conditions in that area.

{If there is ever a Tornado WARNING in your area, get to the basement ASAP.}

The conditions for a Winter Storm vary by locale. In Miami 2" of snow is considered a Winter Storm.

In most of New York State the conditions that define a winter storm are:

EITHER

7 inches in 12 hours

OR

9 inches in 24 hours
