A powerful Nor’easter is expected to move into western NJ beginning late tonight on through Thursday morning with heavy rain, strong winds, coastal flooding, and even some wet snow as the storm departs.
Clouds will lower and thicken today as high pressure departs. Temperatures will rise into the lower to mid 30’s after a chilly start in the teens this morning.
Rain will develop late tonight, after midnight. While all rain is expected of much of the region, a mix of snow, sleet, and rain can be expected for northern and western sections.
The low pressure system will move northward tomorrow towards the New Jersey coastal waters. Heavy rainfall can be expected in our region as the low pressure system moves slowly northward. The rain will mix with and change over to snow over northeastern Pennsylvania and far northwestern New Jersey with accumulating snowfall by Tuesday afternoon and evening. The heavy rainfall will lead to some stream flooding as over 2″ of rain can be expected. Winds will be from the northeast to north at 15 to 25 mph. Temperatures will rise into the mid to upper 30’s.
The low pressure system will slowly lift northward through Long Island and into southern New England on Wednesday. Bands of rain will continue to rotate through the region. As colder air builds in behind the storm, the rain will mix over to snow through the day. Snow showers will linger on through Thursday morning with windy conditions expected. Winds will be from the northwest at 10 to 20 mph. Temperatures on Wednesday and Thursday will range from the mid to upper 20’s for lows and upper 30’s to lower 40’s for highs.
