A nor'easter that moved east of New Jersey on the 25th dropped 1 to 3 inches of snow across central and southern New Jersey with a large area of around 3 inches of snow accumulating between the New Jersey Turnpike and the Garden State Parkway in the southern half of the state. Most of the snow fell during the day and had difficulty accumulating when the intensity decreased after the morning. Nevertheless, the heaviest snow fell throughout the morning commute, caused slushy traveling conditions and traffic accidents. The precipitation started briefly as rain in the extreme southeast part of the state before sunrise on the 25th. Elsewhere precipitation began as snow between 6 a.m. and 8 a.m. EDT and changed over to snow in the extreme southeast part of the state at the same time. The snow fell at its heaviest throughout most of the morning. While snow also fell during the afternoon and early evening (far southeast), it did not accumulate as efficiently. As precipitation intensity lessened, the snow changed to light rain during the late afternoon and early evening of the 25th and the rain ended later that evening.
Representative snowfall included 3.2 inches in Berlin (Camden County), 3.0 inches in Galloway Township (Atlantic County), Hammonton Township (Atlantic County), Franklin Township (Gloucester County), Monroe Township (Gloucester County), Folsom (Atlantic County), Wrightstown (Burlington County), Buena Vista (Atlantic County), Malaga (Gloucester County) and Newport (Cumberland County), 2.7 inches in Washington Township (Gloucester County), 2.5 inches in Manchester Township (Ocean County), 2.4 inches in Westampton Township (Burlington County), 2.1 inches in Cream Ridge (Monmouth County), 2.0 inches in Bethlehem Township (Hunterdon County) and Hightstown (Mercer County), 1.9 inches at the Atlantic City International Airport, 1.1 inches in Freehold (Monmouth County)  and 1.0 inch in Upper Township (Cape May County) and Hopewell Township (Mercer County).
The low pressure system responsible for the late season snow moved from Alabama on the morning of the 24th northeast and passed just east of Norfolk, Virginia at 8 a.m. EDT on the 25th. It proceeded to move northeast and by 8 p.m. EDT on the 25th it was about 175 miles east of the New Jersey coast. The combination of the relatively offshore storm track coupled with most of the precipitation falling during the day and in late March (relatively strong indirect sunlight) prevented much snow from reaching northwest New Jersey and from  heavier snow occurring elsewhere.
