A quick moving Alberta Clipper, dropping southeast from Canada and through the Northern Plains, tracked across the Ohio Valley and into the Mid Atlantic by the morning of the 6th. Snow began falling across New Jersey during the morning commute before tapering off from west to east across the state through the afternoon to early evening. The steadiest snow fell during the morning to early afternoon, with the highest snowfall totals being realized across southern New Jersey. Accumulations were mainly from around one inch to two and a half inches, from north to south through the state. With temperatures mainly in the 20s and snow to liquid ratios in the 15 to 1 range for most of the area, the snow quickly accumulated and adversely affected the morning commute.
A fatal car accident occurred in Cherry Hill Township (Camden County) shortly before 840 am EST along Haddonfield-Berlin Road near Morris Drive.  The accident involved three vehicles and resulted in the death of a 52 year-old Winslow Township woman.  The other two drivers were treated for minor injuries, and the road was closed in both directions for about four hours.  A separate multi-vehicle accident resulted in a downed utility pole along Williamstown Road at North Grove Street in Winslow Township (Camden County).
