You can see the projected wind chill temperatures for Tuesday morning in the 1st image, as it will be a brief, but brutal Arctic blast. There will be some light snow in New England as it moves in Monday night. Wind gusts up to 40 mph can be expected Monday night into Tuesday morning for Long Island and most of the northeast, but the wind will gradually diminish Tuesday afternoon.
With the Wednesday storm expected to stay to our south, temperatures will rebound, but colder air arrives again for next week. So, the next slight chance for snow for Long Island the northeast is next Saturday night into Sunday. As of now, the Euro has a big storm just skim eastern New England with snow (2nd image). The GFS-Parallel also has a storm well offshore (3rd image). So, for now, the chances are low, but it's worth watching, as it may be our only chance in the first 10 to 12 days of March.
