Clipper Entering New Jersey
The clipper I have been following all morning is about to enter New Jersey on schedule. In fact, some flurries and snow showers are already in New Jersey. This will begin what will be about a five hour period of occasional snow showers or periods of snow. The heaviest bursts of snow could drop the visibility to about one-mile. Temperatures are around or slightly above freezing. I suspect that in the heavier bursts, we could see temperatures drop back a degree or two as evaporative cooling takes place. The only place the radar is indicating some rain mixing in is in Cape May County.
We will see a dusting to an inch from this storm system. Again, an isolated spot could see more than one inch of snow. This snowfall is not much, but the previous events this year with this nuisance snowfall have caused major headaches. One inch or less of snow will not keep people off the roadways and that is how we get more accidents and jams during these types of events.
