Snow Returns To New Jersey: Here's Where
Parts of New Jersey saw an accumulation of over two inches. Elsewhere? Not so much.
NORTH JERSEY - While it was nothing compared to the snowpocalypse storm of 2011 which provided a white Halloween robbed communities of power for more than a week and broke the hearts of youngsters across the Garden State, a mild dusting of snow found its way to parts of New Jersey Friday morning.
According to the National Weather Service, High Point State Park in Sussex County had over 2.4 inches of accumulation on the ground.
What a view! The scene at 1800' elevation at High Point, NJ this morning, where 2.4 inches of snow have fallen. Less than a mile away at 1000' elevation, no accumulation was reported, so a very strong elevation dependency this morning! Photo courtesy of Sean Robert. #NJwx pic.twitter.com/DGxBBTvVXq

Elsewhere in northern New Jersey the weather was less white and more wet. While patches of heavy flakes rained down in parts of Sussex, Warren, Passaic and Morris counties what little white coverage existed stuck to grassy areas unless the elevation was extreme.
