EAST BRUNSWICK, NJ – Township officials are urging residents to prepare for an approaching winter storm expected to hit early Sunday morning, bringing a mix of snow and freezing precipitation across the region.

Authorities emphasized community safety, urging neighbors to check on one another and report any power outages to PSE&G at 1-800-436-7734 or JCP&L at 1-888-544-4877.
