Weather

If you have trouble getting over "the hump," even on a short work week, Wednesday's weather will not help you at all. But let's cover Monday and Tuesday first.

A chance for more of the same coastal flooding that invaded the streets of Jersey Shore towns and made driving conditions dangerous Thursday night will continue through Saturday, before the autumn rains let up for a few days.

If someone was describing you, you would want them to say you were mostly nice, right? Like 75% nice? That's about what this holiday weekend will be, if you're counting Friday as the start of it.

Wednesday was pretty dreary all around New Jersey, but that should not be the case again until, well, the day that puts the "holiday" in "holiday weekend."

We've revised the outlook for New Jersey back to what we told you on Monday.

There's a bit of rain to contend with here and there, but the promise of the last summer holiday weekend is enough to make you want to leave work right now.

The Garden State gets a couple more days with temperatures in the 70s before starting to feel more summerlike again.

New Jersey marked its midweek with the fifth confirmed tornado of the year in the state, but conditions will rapidly improve by Thursday night, clearing the way for a clear and wonderful weekend.

There will be very little to worry about in the forecast for the next few days across the Garden State, as we settle into an extended stretch of dry, warm weather for the end of July.

On Thursday, we previewed a bit of a rain chance in Friday's forecast. That now seems to have been removed, as we'll head into the weekend dry across the great Garden State.
