MANHATTAN — Old Man Winter may finally be catching up with us.

After days of unseasonably warm weather, forecasters are predicting New York City will get its first snowfall of the season on Saturday.

A front bringing rain, slush and snow is expected to hit the city before midnight Saturday, according to AccuWeather.

The winter storm rolls into the Big Apple just days after the temperatures climbed into the 60s on Thursday.

Temperatures will top out in the low 50s on Friday and drop down into the 30s as clouds roll into the area in the evening.

Driving around the city could be dangerous Saturday night, but the roads should be cleaned up as the temperatures climb into the low 40s on Sunday.
