TRENTON, N.J. - Snow has given way to rain across much of New Jersey. Minor flooding was reported along back bays, but major roads remain passable in southern shore communities.
Millville in Cumberland County had gotten more than 1.7 inches of rain by 7 a.m. Almost that much was recorded at Atlantic City International Airport.
A portion of Route 9 in Freehold was closed due to flooding during the morning rush.
Nearly 1,700 customers were without electricity in Atlantic County.
Parts of northwest New Jersey received more than 4 inches of
snow overnight. Crews are plowing snow from the shoulders of
Interstate 80 and Routes 206 and 15 to improve drainage.
