As chief meteorologist, my mission is to provide the most honest, accurate weather forecasts possible. I grew up in Jackson, where my weather obsession earned me the nickname "Weatherman Dan." I earned my atmospheric science degree from Cornell University. My career as a TV meteorologist included stops in Oklahoma, in Central New York and at News 12 New Jersey. I've also done research and programming work for the Northeast Regional Climate Center and NJ State Climate Office. I am proud to hold the American Meteorological Society's prestigious Certified Broadcast Meteorologist designation. I live in Union County with my wife, Amy, and young sons, Jackson, Griffin, and Nathan. Things I love: family, wine, storm chasing, Broadway musicals and Disney World.

More mild Spring weather for NJ this week, with a few bumps in the road
Fog, clouds, and sprinkles are in the forecast in the coming days, but temperatures will remain above normal and pleasant for the foreseeable future.

After 1+ inch of rain over the last 24 hours, we have to endure one day of cold wind before big improvements for the first weekend of Spring.
Winter’s final blow: Rain, wind, cold, snow, flooding for NJ Thu-Fri
A powerful storm system will combine with yet another cold air mass to bring a multitude of weather impacts to New Jersey in winter's final days.
NJ weather: One mild day, one rainy day, one wintry day, then Spring
Our weather forecast gets pretty wild in the final days of winter - first you’ll need an umbrella, then the winter coat, and then sunglasses.
Tuesday NJ weather: Cloudy and cold, with spotty rain/snow showers
Another storm system later this week looks to bring a healthy soaking to New Jersey.
NJ needs rain, but there are only 2 minor chances ahead this week

70 degrees! Thursday will probably be NJ’s warmest day of the year so far
A sea breeze will keep the Shore cooler Thursday, it won't be as bright and sunny, and a big cooldown will arrive in just 36 to 48 hours.
Springlike warmth and sunshine continue, but not for all of NJ
A pesky on-shore breeze will keep Wednesday's temperatures cooler than Tuesday's, especially along the Jersey Shore.
A taste of Spring: Four days of 50s and 60s ahead for NJ
70 is a possibility in New Jersey by the end of the week, and we will mainly remain dry. But there are sea breeze concerns for the Jersey Shore.
