| episode_narrative | Heavy rain fell across Mercer County and the Raritan and Passaic River Basins in the northern half of New Jersey. The heavier rain spread across the region during the afternoon of the 1st and ended during the morning of the 2nd. Storm totals averaged between 1.5 and 2.75 inches with lesser amounts (around an inch) across the rest of the northern two-thirds of New Jersey. Some poor drainage flooding occurred, but most major streams and rivers remained within their banks. No serious damage was reported. The Millstone River at Griggstown (Somerset County) exceeded its 9 foot flood stage from 620 a.m. EDT on the 2nd through 9 a.m. EDT on the 3rd. It crested at 10.1 feet at 5 p.m. EDT on the 2nd. Subsequently, the Griggstown Causeway was closed over the Millstone River in Franklin Township. Storm totals included 2.80 inches in Chatham (Morris County), 2.62 inches in Belle Mead (Somerset County), 2.43 inches in Pottersville (Somerset County), 2.23 inches in Trenton (Mercer County), 2.08 inches in New Brunswick (Middlesex County), 2.07 inches in Washington's Crossing (Mercer County), 2.00 inches in Blackwells Mills (Somerset County), 1.89 inches in Flemington (Hunterdon County), 1.75 inches in Wertsville (Hunterdon County) and 1.58 inches in Iselin (Middlesex County). A warm front over the Ohio Valley on the morning of the 1st moved into New Jersey the morning of the 2nd. A low pressure system developed on the frontal boundary's triple point (the conjunction of the occluded, warm and cold fronts) over Eastern Pennsylvania by the morning of the 2nd. Heavier rain fell to the north of this low center across much of the northern half of New Jersey. |
