A second winter storm in as many days will slam parts of the Midwest before rolling toward the East Coast. Major travel disruptions are likely.

Tuesday’s overnight storm dropped 8 inches of snow in Galloway in Atlantic County and 7.8 inches in Cape May, the weather service said. There were widespread totals of 6 inches or more in Atlantic County and lighter snow accumulations in central and northern New Jersey.

As the Mid-Atlantic digs out from a snowstorm, a new winter storm is underway in the Plains that will move through the Midwest before slamming the East Coast.

Around 2:30 p.m., some snow was showing up on weather radar in the Garden State, but a dry layer of air in the lower atmosphere was causing the snow to evaporate before reaching the ground. That’s a phenomenon known as virga.
