Hello All,


The Storm was a BUST !!!  The low pressure system took longer to develop
and by the time it
got its act together it was further north to do us harm which is good I
guess.  In any event light snow
has fallen overnight.  2 inches or less of snow cover the roadways.  Main
Roads are salted and clear but
sides are snow covered and slippery.  Gov.  Christie Declared a State of
Emergency last night with a travel
band.  At 7am he was to announce he would lift it for Counties south of
I95.  The Winter Storm Warning was
downgraded to a Winter Weather Advisory until noon.


With the downgrade we suspended EMCOMM operations as it was apparent that
this storm was going to be
a manageable event for Camden County and Spotter Operations would not be
required for NWS criteria.
County Staff will still monitor the frequency throughout this morning if
anyone wants to provide an update from
your neighborhood.   No net will be called as originally planned.  Thanks
for your support and continued efforts.


Rick
