New York City is forecast to experience a burst of snow this week following some wet weather brought on by an Alberta Clipper storm. A clipper storm, as defined by the National Weather Service, is a fast-moving storm that drops into the U.

A lake-effect snowstorm that buried communities from Michigan to New York under feet of snow will start to wind down on Tuesday, but an Alberta Clipper is hot on its heels and is expected to bring snow to at least a dozen states this week.
