While several of these measures were taken late Sunday night or early Monday morning, officials say more snowfall may increase totals. Strong winds continue to cause flying snow and poor visibility in New Jersey.

Residents should avoid unnecessary travel until conditions improve. Many communities have snow-covered roads, and visibility drops quickly during heavier snow bands.

Central and southern areas are hardest hit by this winter storm. After weather observers report new totals, measurements will be updated.
