How much snow does northern New Jersey get in a winter?
On average, about 19 to 36 inches a season depending on the county: roughly 36 inches in Sussex and Warren, 30 in Bergen, 29 in Passaic and 19 in Morris, from NOAA station records. Single seasons range far wider.
Each number is one weather station's record, so treat it as a guide for the county rather than a promise for every hill. The Sussex station's record ends in 2022.
Our snowfall history page lists the station, the years covered and every season's total.
