Though the forecast is calling for a mix of rain and snow, the Department of Emergency Management in Monmouth County is prepared for the worst.

Residents in Wall Township say they are ready for the snowstorm. Many residents were out Tuesday stocking up on food and supplies for the snow. However, emergency officials say it?s not the snow that concerns them.

Emergency officials say the snow and rain mixture makes for icy roads and horrible driving conditions. Drivers are urged to leave themselves extra time and take it slowly on the roads.
