Everyone in western New Jersey has woken up to the sound of wind wiped rain this Monday morning. Look for moderate rain to continue until mid morning. Then the rain will turn more showery. In fact there’s a good chance the sun will come out this afternoon!

But don’t put away your rain boots just yet. A cold front will be approaching the region later this afternoon and evening and can bring some additional rain and thunderstorm. These thunderstorm will have the potential to be strong. As you can see in the above map the worse of it will be to our south and west.

Tuesday looks to be the winner weather wise this week. Then cooler weather and breezy conditions return for the remainder of the week.

Remember: April showers bring May flowers!
