Tuesday's high temperatures were in the upper 40s and the low 50s.  Today it will be noticeably colder with a strong gusty wind.  Sun and some clouds, with highs just in the 30s. Brisk and cold tonight, with most lows in the 20s.  There could also be a few areas that see temperatures in the teens...

You can determine where the heaviest of the snow will fall in a snow storm from specific aspects at different levels of the atmosphere.

The snow is not over yet as New Jersey is expecting more snow tonight and potentially another storm this weekend.

Last week's nor'easter, dubbed Nemo, is the first major snowstorm in New Jersey this winter season.

A fast-moving low pressure area has given New Jersey several snow events these past two weeks, with barely any accumulations in snow amount.

There were some record breaking high temperatures Wednesday.  Newark Liberty Airport broke the old record of 64 in 1947 when they reached 66.  Wrightstown reached 68 degrees, so my 65 to locally near 70 worked out pretty well. The wind will be coming back today, although not as strong as it was overnight...

A review of the weekend past revealed that it didn't get nearly as warm as I had expected it to. I thought it would be in the upper 50's, and low 60's yesterday.  But it only got to the upper 40's in Newark and Trenton, and lower 50's in Atlantic City and Wrightstown...

High temperatures yesterday did not go above 47 in Atlantic City and Trenton.  It was 46 degrees in Newark and Wrightstown. That's way below the mid to upper 50s that we should be seeing this time of the year. We'll have clouds to start with Friday, and some sunshine breaking in this afternoon...

The weekend forecast worked out reasonably well with the exception of a few widely scattered, and very light showers in Central and Northern New Jersey yesterday afternoon. The high temperatures yesterday barley reached 70 degrees.  71 in Atlantic City was the topper.  Trenton and Wrightstown did not get out of the upper 60s.

High temperatures on Wednesday reached the low to middle 80's. There were some showers around as well as some heavy thunderstorms. Skies should be no worse than possibly sunny, and high temperatures this afternoon should be ranging in the mid to perhaps upper 80's...
