Winter Storm Nemo arrived in New York City early Monday morning but the worst of the snow has yet to hit.

The snow is expected to intensify by the afternoon, with blizzard conditions kicking at around 9 p.m. as the National Weather Service issued a blizzard warning on Friday. The weather warning for the New York City area remains in effect through 1 p.m. on Saturday.

The storm will start to get heavier around rush hour in the New York City metropolitan area which may see up to 18 inches of snow. However, a majority of the accumulation will likely occur overnight as mix of rain and slush is expected throughout the day. One to two inches of snow is expected to hit the city per hour, according to The Huffington Post.

The Weather Channel is providing live updates and maps of the storm's track.
