Here is footage from the severe weather that moved through the Garden State on Wednesday night. This was the first instance of severe weather this season. The most notable of the effects was the vivid lightning, which not only went from cloud to cloud, but also from cloud to ground. There were two waves of storms with the first coming around sunset while the second occurred later in the evening.
Here is a brief video of what was probably winter’s last gasp here in Middlesex County, New Jersey. On the day after Palm Sunday, there was a storm that brought some wet snow in the morning. The snowfall didn’t accumulate since temperatures on the ground were too warm for the white stuff to stick. The storm system did bring fairly squally conditions to the area though.

Here is a slideshow from the pictures taken of the damage along the Jersey Shore at several locations from South Amboy to Sea Bright.

The beach near Waterfront Park in South Amboy is contaminated. It will be a long time before the Jersey Shore is whole again.
