It looks like it is about to get ugly on Long Island, I am not surprised.

Santa Anita could also be in trouble too...

Saturday: Rain and possibly a thunderstorm, mainly before 5 pm, then a chance of showers and thunderstorms after 4pm. Some of the storms will produce heavy rainfall. High near 59. Breezy, with a southwest wind between 13 and 23 mph, with gusts as high as 35 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%.

Same forecast as last week.

If the weather reports are accurate, the bulk of the snow is coming tomorrow into Saturday morning, which makes it unlikely Aqueduct will run on Saturday. Of course, with weather reports, that is a big if.

It's been a long time since I've seen a snowstorm like this. I'm 40 miles north of NYC and we have around 10 inches of heavy snow. If the worst is still yet to come I would not be surprised if NYRA cancels Saturday's races.

NY1 is saying the worst of the snow should be over by noon Friday, but the weather won't really clear until Monday.

It's bad in the city- guy was killed in Central Park when a tree branch hit him and another tree fell on a bus on Fifth Ave.
