Snow totals for New Jersey’s ‘Blizzard of 2015’

The “Blizzard of 2015” was real but it was just in another state. In our area, forecasters called for 1-2 feet of snow for Philadelphia and New Jersey. Forecasters say this was a hard storm to predict because anything to the left of the western wall would get very little and anything to the right could get clobbered.

State and city officials in both Pennsylvania and New Jersey quickly declared states of emergencies. In New Jersey the State Police issued an overnight travel ban so snow plows could navigate better.

The storm moved further east and the “historic” storm turned out to be a dusting for deep South Jersey and 2-3 inches in most other areas. The exception being areas in Middlesex, Monmouth and Ocean counties in New Jersey, where Brick topped the list with 10 inches of snow.

Below are the unofficial snow totals from the :Blizzard of 2015.” Many of the snow totals were recorded before the snow ended. What you got may be higher than what is shown here. I welcome you to leave your snow report in the comments below.
