| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A low pressure system developed to the lee of the Rocky Mountains on the 26th. It moved east to the lower Tennessee Valley the morning of the 27th and then northeast and reached the central Saint Lawrence Valley the morning of the 28th. This once again placed New Jersey on the relative warm side of the storm. The atmosphere was cold enough at the start though for precipitation to start as snow during the latter stages of the evening commute on the 27th. Warmer air moved in from the southeast and precipitation changed over to rain by a little after midnight on the 28th in Morris County and before dawn on the 28th in Warren and Sussex Counties. Accumulations averaged from 2 inches in Western Morris County and Eastern Warren County to nearly 4 inches in Northwest Sussex County. Wantage reported 3.5 inches and Long Valley reported 2 inches of new snow. Precipitation also started as snow farther south in New Jersey. But accumulating snows (around an inch) at the start were confined to locations north of Interstate 195. |
