美东地区周一晚（3月13号）将迎来恶劣天气，据天气预报人员预测，美东三州地区、从DC到麻萨诸塞州郡均将迎来特大暴风雪。这场暴雪将从周一晚开始袭击美东地区，华盛顿、纽约、波士顿等美东多个重要城市均将受到影响，部分地区最多会迎来18英寸降雪。预测纽约市降雪12-20英寸。

纽约市、长岛、康州南部、哈德逊谷地和新泽西北部地区都已经启动冬季风暴预警，预警将从周一午夜零点（3月14号零点）生效，截至周二午夜零点（3月15号零点）结束。

国家气象中心称，这场暴雪将影响东北部绝大多数地区：DC、新泽西、纽约州以及新英格兰地区航班都将受到影响。纽约JFK和LGA机场都在这次暴雪影响范围之内，这次暴风雪将造成航班大面积延误甚至取消。

紐約市交通局 (New York City Department of Transportation) 與清潔局 (Department of Sanitation) 今天共同宣布，換邊停車規定 (Alternate Side Parking) 將在全市範圍內暫停實施，以利冬季天候準備和清除積雪。全市的停車表仍將照常收費。如需更多資訊以及最新消息，請致電 3-1-1.

纽约市通知原文：
Alert issued 3/13/17 at 9:15 AM. The National Weather Service has upgraded the previously issued Blizzard Watch to a Blizzard Warning for NYC from 12AM on 3/14 to 12AM on 3/15. The current forecast calls for 12-20" of snow, winds of 25-35mph with gusts up to 55mph, and cold temperatures. Snowfall rates of 2-4" per hour are possible which may result in whiteout conditions & visibilities of less than a quarter mile.

Notification issued 3/12/17 at 8:15 PM. NYC Emergency Management advises New Yorkers to prepare for a nor'easter which is forecast to bring cold temperatures, 12-18 inches of snow, and winds of 20-30mph with gusts up to 50mph to NYC beginning late Monday night through Tuesday, 3/14. This will create dangerous travel conditions including slippery roads and visibilities of one quarter mile or less at times. New Yorkers are advised to stay off the roads except in the event of an emergency. If you must travel, use mass transit.

The National Weather Service has issued the following:

Blizzard Watch in effect for NYC from 12AM on 3/14 to 12AM on 3/15

Coastal Flood Watch for BK, SI, & southern QN from 8AM-12PM on 3/14. Tides 2-3 feet above normal are possible for the south shore bays of Long Island and the lower New York Harbor. During a Coastal Flood Watch, minor flooding of the most vulnerable shore roads and/or adjacent properties is possible due to the height of the storm tide, wave splash-over, and/or effects of the full moon.

NYC Department of Transportation has announced that Alternate Side Parking regulations are suspended on Tuesday, 3/14 and Wednesday, 3/15. Meters remain in effect.

A major nor'easter threatens to shut down travel due to heavy snow and strong winds from Washington, D.C., to New York City and Boston early this week.
The snowstorm will first continue to bring snow and travel problems in the Midwest into Monday.
A storm will rapidly strengthen and track within a couple of hundred miles of the east coast of the U.S. spanning Monday night to Tuesday night. For many areas in the Northeast, this will likely be the biggest and most impactful storm of the winter.

At this time, it appears that areas from northern Virginia to northern Maryland, central and eastern Pennsylvania, northern New Jersey, central and southeastern New York state and a large part of New England will be shoveling out of 6 inches or more of snow from the storm.
A widespread zone of around a foot or more of snow is expected from the western suburbs of Philadelphia to New York City, Boston and Portland, Maine.

"New York City's Central Park has not recorded more than 10 inches of snow from one storm in March since the 1993 Storm of the Century," AccuWeather Senior Meteorologist Kristina Pydynowski said.
This amount of snow over such a broad, heavily populated area could bring travel to a standstill as snow clogs streets and highways and heavy snow and wind trigger airline delays and flight cancellations. Some flights have already been canceled in advance of the storm.

For thousands of miles of roads in the region, this will be an unusually cold storm for the middle of March. Much of the snow that falls will accumulate on the roads.
"Residents should prepare for school closures and potential cancellations of sporting events due to hazardous travel for players and fans," Pydynowski said."
