| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A weak low pressure system developed over Virginia the night of the 10th along a secondary cold front. As the low moved northeast and reached Block Island Rhode Island during the morning of the 11th, a swath of light snow accompanied it during the pre-dawn and morning hours. Accumulations averaged between two and four inches, except around one inch fell in Western Atlantic and Hunterdon Counties. The highest accumulations (all near 4 inches) fell in a band across Eastern Burlington, Northwest Ocean and Southern Monmouth Counties. Since the snow fell into the Saturday morning, several accidents were reported especially across Central New Jersey. The most serious occurred along The Garden State Parkway in Woodbridge where a two car collision caused a serious injury. |
