We always considered Trenton to be in S Jersey....whether people were Eagles fans or Giants fans....( I don't watch football myself ).
-
The former editor of The Fisherman commuted from Pt to Manhattan every day when he worked in advertising. Kenny Freel, ages ago.
-
No. The TPK, PKWY, 287 all converge in Middlesex around Edison and Woodbridge. So that line doesn't really work if taken strictly.
-
They all have something in common....they all gripe about taxes, school teacher salaries,traffic, and too much cold snowy weather:)
-
And Pt Pleasant ain't in it....that's S Jersey. N Jersey starts at Elizabeth. Ask anyone in Elizabeth if Pt Pleasant is CNJ....Carteret is CNJ. Perth Amboy is CNJ. Jackson always claims they are.....frankly IMO Sayreville is S Jersey:)
-
It's the only explanation I can think of.

I think that's what may have FALLEN over several days, but did not accumulate; I once read they count what falls as well. How they do this, I'm not sure.
-
The map is wrong. Middlesex county did not receive 5 inches. There was hardly an inch, and it was light sleet. Perhaps they mean 3-5 inches FELL, but it did not accumulate. Period. I was there. I saw it. Prepared for two days waiting for it, and lost two days of work ( school system ) waiting for it. In fact it did not snow at all; what fell was sleet.

We're. generally starved for moisture, have been for awhile. Can't expect big snows when near drought conditions still predominate. One of the reasons my sump pipe froze was not just the colder temps, but not enough rain to keep it running; it usually spits out every few hours; that hasn't been happening with the lack of rain. So water from the street was able to back up into it and freeze. Today it finally thawed thank God.

There's no way Newark had 6 inches in March 2001; I didn't crack half an inch and I'm not that far from Newark.
-
I had confidence that would happen. Some years just suck. This is one of them.I'm not sure following these models is worth much these days; they shift around so much it's hard to get excited about anything at all. In a few weeks this torture will be over. I'm confident of that.
-
Not this year....
-
I think so too, but at least I buy the stuff for cheap at the end of the season.
-
We did have a winter feel this year, just no big snows. Better than a cloudy 40-45 every day with rain like some winters.No contest.
-
I was disappointed in the outcome across CNJ, but as I went to clean there was no way I was going to be able to cut through that crud. Fortunately, the big ass snowblower ate it right up. Didn't think I'd ever use it on a 1-2 inch deal, but man what a difference...neighbors are still chopping. Went for a walk in Roosevelt Park in Edison and hoo boy, it was hazardous. Even with hikers designed for ice. What's next...bring it on.
-
I managed less than that just across the river. Just went outside; rain and slush. Really got shafted this time. CNJ was not the place to be. Never expected much but surprised areas to the east did much better.
-
It’s just been terrible here. Hope something else materializes before winter ends.
-
Glad some of you got a couple inches but it really sucked here. Scratched out roughly an inch before turning to rain. Gonna watch tv. Stay safe all.
-
I know you've been down on this event but truthfully, it does not look good here.
-
Not. doing much of anything here right now; some light stuff.
-
tracking these "events" is starting to look like a waste of time. I'm retired and bored, and its too cold for fishing , so I follow along. But these last few events have been just ridiculous.
-
I think where you live matters.People in NJ hate snow with a passion. They quite literally won't even say the word, " well rain is better than that other stuff" You mean snow? " No, don't say it! Ahhhgg!!"
