Massive winter storm slams N.J. with heavy snow, treacherous ice
A major winter storm is piling up heavy snow across New Jersey, with accumulations ranging from 4 inches to 11 inches as of Sunday afternoon.
Bridgewater in Somerset County recorded the highest snowfall total in the state at 11 inches as of 2:30 p.m.
Multiple northern and central New Jersey towns also had totals nearing 10 inches of snow, according to National Weather Service reports.
Snowfall rates near 1 to 2 inches per hour are expected during the day with the highest snowfall totals of 12 to 18 inches expected in northern counties.
A transition to a wintry mix of sleet and freezing rain has been ongoing this afternoon. That could cause a dangerous layer of ice on top of the snow.
Hundreds of New Jersey districts have already started calling for school closures and delayed openings for Monday.
