12PM Wednesday Winter Storm Update
Steady snow has started to fall in the Township within the past 20 minutes. The forecast still calls for heavy snow to fall over the next several hours. Roads conditions are good now, but should rapidly deteriorate.
FORECAST -
Midday Update...Varying intensity of snow and rain this morning is rapidly giving way to a band of heavy snow that is in the process of moving into CNJ (it will reach everyone 1130a-1245p). This is the beginning of what should be persistent periods of very heavy snow through the afternoon and a good amount of the time will feature 1-2" per hour rates. This intensity enables pavements to cover and accumulate during the afternoon.
The heavy banding of snow should end by 6-8p and snow completely stops not long after. Once any lingering snow ends this evening, we begin to clear out and remain breezy overnight. Due to the heavy, wet snow expected combined with gusty winds (up to 25 - 35 mph), downed limbs, a few trees and power lines can result. In addition, watch for some freezing of slush/wet surfaces as temps cool to or below freezing.
