The Bottom Line
Friday s little storm system will be no big deal NW NJ could see an inch or two of snow accumulation. The bigger deal here is the complete 180 an impending coastal storm system has made. With a track now expected to hug the East Coast, we now fall squarely within this potential nor easter s grasp. Accumulating snow looks likely, especially the farther south in new Jersey you go. The big question: Will it be a little bit of snow, or a lot?
Friday
A weak wave of precipitation will pass through New Jersey throughout Friday morning. As of this writing (5:30 a.m.), the freezing line is running right across the southern edge of Hunterdon, Somerset, and Union counties. So, for areas north and west of that line, it s going to be mainly snow. To the south, it s going to be mainly rain. (With some mixing possible in Middlesex and Mercer counties, perhaps.)
