Winter Weather February 27, 2023 – February 28, 2023 · Western Union, New Jersey

What the National Weather Service wrote

A general 1 to 3 inches of snow fell across the zone. A trained spotter reported 2.4 inches in Plainfield. A Cocorahs report from Clark which is right along the eastern border of the zone reported 3.0 inches of snow and 1.0 inches of snow at 0.8 WSW Westfield, and 1.5 inches at New Providence.

The wider storm

Weak high pressure and a marginally cold air mass was locked into the northeast with blocking to the north across Eastern Canada, while low pressure over the Midwest moved east and redeveloped off the Northern Mid Atlantic coast. This led to the first widespread accumulating snowfall across the CWA.
