STORM DESCRIPTION
A light burst of wet snow blanketed west central New Jersey before changing to rain.
Synoptic Discussion
A warm front gradually moved northeastwards from the Mid-Atlantic and Ohio Valley. Overruning moisture from the Gulf of Mexico produced scattered bands of precipitation in advance of the front, and more concentrated rain in the warm sector behind it.
Local Discusion
Snow fell occasionally during the day on the 11th, while producing only a dusting to half-inch in most areas. During the evening hours, a more concentrated area of precipitation moved in from the west-southwest. Snow accumulated up to one slushy inch in parts of central New Jersey before changing to rain by 6PM EST. Futher northwest, temperatures remained below freezing for longer and a period of freezing rain fell across northwestern New Jersey during the night of the 11th.
