Updated Snow Totals, No School: What To Expect In Lawrence Twp.

LAWRENCEVILLE, NJ — Lawrence Township Public Schools will be closed Tuesday, as cleanup from a historic blizzard that deposited up to 17 inches of snow across the township stretches into a second day, officials announced Monday.

The powerful storm shut down schools, closed municipal offices and prompted officials to extend a mandatory travel restriction through noon Monday as heavy snowfall, blizzard-like conditions and strong winds continued to create dangerous road conditions across the state.

Roadway and public works crews worked continuously to clear streets, and residents were asked to give plow operators plenty of space to work safely and efficiently.

The Lawrence Township Municipal Offices will have a two-hour delayed opening on Tuesday.
