A low pressure system that moved off the South Carolina coast brought snow into mainly southeast New Jersey on the 26th. Snowfall averaged around 5 inches in Cape May County, 1 to 4 inches across the rest of southeast New Jersey and generally an inch or less across southwest New Jersey and higher terrain locations in northwest New Jersey.  Some schools in Cape May County were closed.  The snow caused accidents and impacted the morning commute. Speed restrictions were in place on the New Jersey Turnpike and Garden State Parkway in the southern third of New Jersey.
Across southern New Jersey, snow began on the morning of the 26th and spread from southeast to northwest between 4 a.m. EST and 7 a.m. EST. The snow fell heavier at times during the morning commute in Atlantic and Cape May Counties. The snow then ended from northwest to southeast between 9 a.m. EST and 1230 p.m. EST that day. It lasted the longest in Cape May County.
Representative snowfall included 6.5 inches in Wildwood Crest (Cape May County), 6.0 inches in Sea Isle City (Cape May County), 5.8 inches in Woodbine (Cape May County), 5.4 inches in Cape May (Cape May County), 5.0 inches in Green Creek (Cape May County), 4.8 inches in Woodbine (Cape May County), 3.4 inches in Estell Manor (Atlantic County), 3.2 inches in Newport (Cumberland County), 2.6 inches at the Atlantic City International Airport, 2.5 inches in Buena Vista Township (Atlantic County), 2.0 inches in Hammonton (Atlantic County), 1.8 inches in Bridgeton (Cumberland County), 1.5 inches in Malaga (Gloucester County) and Pittsgrove Township (Salem County), 1.0 inch in Lanoka Harbor and Berkeley Township (Ocean County) and 0.6 inches in Tabernacle Township (Burlington County).
The snow was caused by a low pressure system that formed in the western Gulf of Mexico on the morning of the 25th. It moved eastnortheast along the northern tier of the Gulf and then reached eastern Georgia early on the 26th. The low pressure system then moved northeast and passed east of Cape Hatteras, North Carolina at 7 a.m. EST on the 26th. It continued to move northeast out to sea the rest of the day. The relatively southeast track coupled with its fast movement prevented heavier snow from getting farther northwest than Cape May County.
