Much of NJ will be greeted by rain this morning with mixing of sleet and snow before a transition to all snow.
At the point of the all snow transition, forecasters the storm has the potential to be intense, causing accumulations on all surfaces reasonably quickly.
In addition, the forecasted wind gusts of 40 – 50 mph may lead to some downed branches/power outages.
Depending on which forecast report you review, the accumulation totals range from 1-3" and 2-6" with the higher accumulation totals being a possibility in the county's western portion.
Plan on slippery road conditions.
Adjust your speed, slow down and use caution while traveling.
