What we don't know:
Snow totals can shift as National Weather Service offices and local spotters complete final storm surveys, and as drifting is factored into measurements in wind-prone areas. Some community reports may also be updated as additional observations come in.
More snow expected Wednesday, storm possible Thursday
What's next:
Forecasters say the region will remain mostly dry through Tuesday, though a few snow showers could brush parts of Sullivan County due to lake-effect activity.
Steadier snow is expected to move in after midnight and continue into Wednesday morning, potentially impacting the morning commute before tapering off Wednesday afternoon.
"This is not another blizzard. That’s some good news," FOX 5 NY meteorologist Audrey Puente said. "But there will be more snow to add to the totals that we’ve already seen."

Another system could bring additional snow Thursday. Puente said that storm is expected to track to the south, but if it shifts slightly north, the tri-state area could see additional accumulating snow.
Residents are urged to use caution on untreated roads and allow extra travel time as cleanup efforts continue.
