...HEAVY SNOW WITH BLOWING AND DRIFTING SNOW CONTINUES...

At 130 PM, a band of heavy snow was located across Middlesex,
Monmouth, and Ocean counties. This band will continue to shift
eastward through the afternoon. Snowfall rates within this band
are expected to be 2 to 3 inches per hour.

The combination of heavy snow and strong winds continue to result
in considerable blowing and drifting snow, treacherous road
conditions and visibility in many places reduced to one quarter
mile or less. North to northwest winds will continue to gust 40
to 50 mph with the higher gusts along the Shore. The snow is
expected to taper off later this afternoon.

Travel will continue to be severely impacted due to the combination
of heavy snow, strong winds and significantly reduced visibilities.
Unnecessary travel is highly discouraged especially in the coastal
counties.
