Original Post:

What was once billed as a potentially significant snow event now looks like it won’t be much of anything at all.

WTNH meteorologist Sam Kantrow is predicting 1-2 inches of snowfall Sunday night into Monday morning along the Connecticut coast. Inland parts of Connecticut may only see a coating up to 1 inch of snow. What changed? The storm in moving south, Kantrow says.

The latest forecasts from theConnecticut Weather Centerand Weather.com are now calling for 1 to 3 inches of snow.

On Friday, the city of Bridgeport declared a snow emergency for 6 p.m. Sunday. As of 2 p.m. Sunday, the emergency was still in effect, according to the city’s website.

New York City, Long Island and New Jersey could still see 3 to 6 inches of snow, however, according to theNational Weather Service.
