MOUNT HOLLY – The National Weather Service (NWS) issued a blizzard warning for all of Cape May County from Jan. 28 through Jan. 29. 
Heavy snow is likely for the entire county, including on the barrier islands, with current predictions calling for 12 to 18 inches of accumulation and wind gusts up to 50 m.p.h., with the strongest winds Jan. 29, according to the NWS.
The NWS said there was more than a 86% chance the county would get at least six inches of snow.
The storm is expected to hit the evening of Jan. 28 and continue to the evening of Jan. 29, making travel “difficult to impossible,” the NWS said, due to strong winds blowing snow. 
There is a coastal flooding warning in effect until 10 a.m. Jan 29, with high tide coming just after 5 a.m., the NWS said.
Conditions at sea, off the coast, are also projected to be dangerous the night of Jan. 28 through the night of Jan. 29, the NWS reported in a brief, with gale to storm force wind gusts and freezing spray.
