| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A large high pressure system brought a cold and dry air mass into New Jersey. As the high drifted off the Middle Atlantic Coast, a slow moving cold front tapped the moisture in the Gulf of Mexico and dropped heavy precipitation across the area. Since the air mass was so dry and cold to start, temperatures dropped below the freezing mark as the rain began during the early morning of the 16th. But winds were blowing strongly from the southeast and warmer air took temperatures above the freezing mark in all areas by the end of the morning commute. There were some locally slippery spots during the predawn hours in Hunterdon, Mercer, Morris and Somerset Counties. The rain ended by noon on the 16th. |
