Alan’s Holiday Weather Blog – 11/23/11

There was some record rainfalls across parts of New Jersey yesterday.  Newark Liberty Airport broke the old record set in 1991 of 1.25 inches with just under 1.7 inches of rain.  Trenton Mercer County Airport broke the old record set in 1952 of 1.35, when it had 1.73. 

There was a little bit less than an inch, though, down in Atlantic City and along the south coast. 

We get one round of rain early this morning.  Another round of rain will arrive at some point this afternoon.  We may catch a break in the rain, though, from mid and late morning to the early afternoon hours briefly.  High temperatures in the 50s and 60s.

Any evening showers will end early tonight, then becoming clearer and much cooler overnight with statewide lows from the mid 30s to the low 40s. 

A sunny and beautiful Thanksgiving day in the low to middle 50s. 

A sunny Black Friday with highs near 60. 

The rest of the holiday weekend still looks okay.  Showers may be approaching later Sunday, but will probably hold off until some point early next week.
