Mid-October Snow Shocks Tri-Staters
Parts North And West Of NYC Hit With Pre-Halloween Surprise; Some Spots Could See As Much As 4 Inches
NEW YORK (CBS) ―
A thin blanket of snow covered grass, trees, and cars in Vernon, N.J. on Oct. 15, 2009 as an early nor'easter pushed through the region.
It's Oct. 15. Dig out those hats, scarves, and … snow shovels?
The tri-state was walloped by its first nor'easter of the season, and some parts of New Jersey, New York, and Connecticut saw heavy snow showers fall throughout the day.
CBS 2's Megan Glaros was in Vernon, N.J. where the flakes were still falling on Thursday evening.
"I hate it! This shouldn't be happening now," said Vernon resident Angela Warren. "I like it when it comes after Thanksgiving or right around Christmas, but it's too early for this."
The elevation in Vernon is about 550 feet, but CBS 2 drove to some higher elevations within the town and found snow sticking to cars, trees, roofs, and the grass.
"It's a little early, it's natural up here though," said Vernon resident Jack Valenti. "It's higher elevation up here. I talked to my brother back at home in Bergen County and it's raining down there, so, yeah, it's crazy."
