Here's How Middletown Fared In The Major Snowstorm

There were a handful of car accidents Sunday, and all were snow related and involved cars either sliding in the snow or stalling out.

MIDDLETOWN, NJ — Other than Middletown getting 13 inches of snow Sunday, there were no major incidents that occurred in town during the snowstorm, said Mayor Tony Perry.

There were a handful of car accidents Sunday, and all were snow related and involved cars either sliding in the snow or stalling out. Middletown Police responded to minor single-vehicle car accidents on Kings Highway and Red Hill Road, among a few other roads, said Perry.

Also, somewhat miraculously, no parts of Middletown lost electric power Sunday. Many pockets of Monmouth County routinely lose electricity in major storms

All in all, "Our DPW crews did an amazing job," said Perry. "We had 120 vehicles on the roads in the past four days and they really did an amazing job."
