Middlesex County and further north are expecting the largest snowfall this season on Sunday, and residents spent the day before preparing.
Rock salt was a top purchase at stores across Edison on Saturday. It’s an important one, too.
The extreme cold that’s coming after the snowfall means anything left on the ground or on cars will freeze.
The parking lot at area grocery stores was even busier than usual, with many loading up on storm essentials like milk, eggs and bread.
Their reactions to the incoming storm were mixed.
“It’s that time of the year,” one resident said. “It’s supposed to [snow].”
“I hope it stays up north,” said another. “No snow down here in Middlesex County, please.”
