Snow to blanket NYC with 3 inches on Super Bowl Sunday: forecasters

New Yorkers are going to have to generate their own heat on Valentine’s Day.

Sunday’s frigid temperatures will continue overnight, and the addition of biting winds will make Monday a frosty one, forecasters say.

“I guess it’s appropriate that tomorrow is Valentine’s Day because the weather will make it good for snuggling,” quipped Accuweather senior meteorologist Todd Kines to The Post on Sunday.

Snow kicked around in the Big Apple for most of Super Bowl Sunday, dumping up to 3 inches before the storm cleared up a few hours ahead of game time, forecasters said.

The cold weather will remain through Monday night, when temperatures will be in the upper 20s, they said.

But the winds will make the weather feel as low as the single digits.

Luckily, most of Sunday’s snow did not stick to any pavement surfaces because of the gorgeous warm previous day, when temperatures reached nearly 60 degrees, according to Accuweather Senior Meteorologist Rob Miller.

The weather should now remain dry for most of the remainder of the week, except for around late in the day Thursday, where rain is possible as temperatures again approach 60 degrees, Miller told The Post.

“It’s going to be a trend in the milder conditions,” he said of the coming says.
