New Jersey Gets Hit with Winter Weather
Grab your shovels, folks! New Jersey is about to turn into a winter wonderland—minus the wonder. With a winter weather advisory in place, we're looking at a messy Monday. Snow is set to blanket the northwest region, causing headaches for commuters and parents alike.
Snowfall Predictions: What to Expect
The National Weather Service is predicting up to 2 inches of snow overnight, especially in the classic coldest corners of the state. If you live north of Route 78 and west of Route 287, consider yourself warned. It’s about to get slippery out there, and not in a fun way. Expect the roads to be a chaotic mix of snow, slush, and maybe a little bit of rage from drivers stuck in traffic.
School Delays Are Here
In light of the impending storm, many schools have announced delayed openings for Monday, December 16th. Sparta Township schools are leading the charge, but they won’t be the only ones. Keep an eye on local news to see if your kids’ school is on the list. Because let's face it, no one wants to deal with a bunch of cranky kids who missed their beauty sleep.
Challenging Commute Ahead
Monday morning is shaping up to be a nightmare for commuters in northern New Jersey. With a mix of rain and light snow, those roads are going to be more treacherous than an ice skating rink. So, if you were thinking about hitting that snooze button one too many times, think again. Get up early, grab that coffee, and prepare for a drive that might feel like an episode of a survival show.
Stay Updated
As winter weather can be unpredictable, it's crucial to stay updated. Check out local news outlets like NJ.com, New Jersey 101.5, and RLS Media for the latest updates on the weather and school closings.
What’s Next?
With this storm just the beginning, keep your eyes peeled for more snow forecasts in the coming days. Bergen County is expecting snow on three mornings next week, so this isn’t just a one-off. Get ready for a winter season that’s going to keep you on your toes—hopefully not literally, as you slip and slide on the ice.
