The National Weather Service has issued advisories for almost the whole state, saying snow, sleet and/or strong winds were hitting New Jersey overnight.

But alerts were also issued for Sussex, Hunterdon, Warren, Middlesex, Somerset, Mercer, Burlington, Camden, South Jersey and Jersey Shore counties, saying that snow or sleet will be covering roads and cars overnight.
