| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | An area of low pressure over North Carolina on the 23rd strengthened and moved northeast to a location just off the New Jersey Coastline on the morning of the 24th. With a very tight pressure gradient, winds increased ahead of the storm reaching in excess of 50 mph that led to some damage reports. A few periods of heavy rainfall occurred. Excessive rainfall close to 2 inches was focused in sections of Northern and Eastern New Jersey. The storm also brought a strong onshore flow which resulted in minor to moderate tidal flooding for the high tide cycles on the 23rd and 24th. Minor tidal flooding occurred with the tidal cycles on the 23rd and the morning cycle on the 24th with a few reports of moderate tidal flooding on the 24th. Minor tidal flooding on the afternoon of the 23rd closed a lane on the George Redding bridge. Considerable beach erosion occurred during the event as well across all of New Jersey coastal counties, including a 70 percent loss of the dunes near the Matoloking and Harvey Ceders beaches. It was also cold enough for a mixture of snow, sleet and freezing rain in the highest elevations in the northwest portion of the state. With road temperatures in the low 30's, some slick conditions were encountered with school delays as a result. Snow and sleet accumulations ranged from a couple tenths of an inch near Randolph Twp to almost three inches at Highland lakes. ice accumulation of three tenths was measured in Vernon. In addition, the Cape May Lewes ferry was closed for the day. Power outages from the storm were estimated at around 20,000. Numerous schools either dismissed early on the 23rd or had a delay/closing on the 24th. Ocean city, Wildwood schools were closed on the 24th. NJ Transit services were interrupted both days. |
