Dan Zarrow's Forecast

A powerful coastal storm system will fly-by New Jersey from Friday into Saturday, leading to a chance for accumulating snow and gusty winds.

Tuesday will probably be New Jersey's warmest day through the rest of January.

The first 23 days of January had 13 days with temperatures stuck below-normal; New Jersey will add to that total this week.

Temperatures across almost all of New Jersey will be stuck below freezing until sometime Sunday, about 60 hours away.

New Jersey turns wintry again Thursday, with slippery roads, reduced visibility, and the return of arctic air.

An inch or two of snow accumulation could cause slippery roads and minor travel issues across New Jersey during Thursday morning's commute.

The second half of January is "the dead of winter," so it should be no surprise we're talking about cold, windy, and even snowy weather.

We're looking ahead to calmer weather returning to New Jersey, along with our next chance of rain and snow arriving midweek.

Nasty, inclement weather is likely overnight, but the highest snow totals from this nor'easter will end up well west of New Jersey.

This is not going to be a 'snow' storm for most of New Jersey, as rain, wintry mix, and wind remain the big headlines in the forecast.
