NEW YORK (PIX11) \u2014 As New York and New Jersey schools close or delay<\/a> their openings on Monday due to hazardous driving conditions, commuters could be in for nasty roads.<\/p>\n

There is a chance that flurries penetrate tri-state skies<\/a> Monday night, just one day removed from a snowstorm that swept through the area. But before that happens, roads with lingering snow coverage may be iced over<\/a> before the morning commute.<\/p>\n

Counties across southern New York and northern New Jersey were given special weather statements from the National Weather Service on Sunday, warning drivers that overnight wind gusts and freezing temperatures<\/a> make for a hazardous cocktail on roadways.<\/p>\n

\u201cGusty winds of 30 to 40 mph may bring down additional snow-laden tree branches overnight, with isolated power outages<\/a> possible,\u201d the statement said. \u201cTemps will drop well down into the the teens [Sunday night], with any moisture or slush on untreated surfaces quickly refreezing after sundown.\u201d<\/p>\n

On Sunday, hundreds of New York City residents were temporarily left without power, according to Con Edison.<\/p>\n

The NWS weather statement said black ice could be a factor for the morning commute.<\/p>\n
