Woodwild Park, Metuchen, NJ

The Snow Storm of October 29, 2011

On Saturday, October 29, 2011, an early nor'easter passed through our area, leaving several inches of heavy, wet snow. Most trees had only just begun dropping their leaves. As a result, the tree crowns caught a lot of snow. Many branches were not able to support that much weight and snapped off. Loud cracking sounds could be heard for many hours as branches kept falling out of the trees.

Aside from the widespread damage, parts of the park were quite picturesque.
