Company meteorologists continue to monitor the storm's path as it moves across the region. Conditions vary across the JCP&L service area with winds and snow in northern New Jersey and winds and rain in central New Jersey.
Customers should report any downed wires to the company, or their local police and fire department and never go near a downed power line, even if they think it is no longer carrying electricity. Extra caution should be used in areas where downed lines are tangled in trees or other debris.
