Heavy rain changing to snow, dropping temperatures and strong gusty winds is on tap for your Thursday.

Some Snow Possible Despite Mild Temperatures

Cold Start To The Weekend

A large High Pressure system from Canada will stretch across the Eastern U.S. and keep us quite cold as we head into the weekend. Friday will feature a good deal of clouds with highs remaining in the upper 30s...

Snowy Monday Morning

The first of a series of weak disturbances set to move through this week will bring a quick shot of snow Monday morning. A Winter Weather Advisory is in effect for our area with a light accumulation expected to cause conditions to be a bit slick for your Monday morning commute. A low pressure system will develop off the Delmarva coast and quickly move away. This will create a narrow band of accumulating snow across Southern Delaware and Cape May & Atlantic Counties...

Cold But Not Frigid Weekend, Some Snow Chances Ahead

Now that the January thaw is over, our weather pattern has shifted to more normal mid-winter conditions. Seasonably cold temperatures have settled into our area and will continue through next week. While the pattern will be on the dry side for the most part, there will be a few chances of snow. But first the weekend. It will be chilly & breezy with highs in the low 40s. High temperatures for most of the week will also range in the upper 30s to low 40s...

Students that ride the bus should report to their normal pick-up locations 2 hours later than normal. The strong coastal storm continues to pound the NJ coast. While the brunt of the storm is ending tonight, we not out of the woods yet.

Coastal Storm Set To Bring Heavy Rain, Flooding

It was almost a year ago that we were dealing with a major coastal storm. The infamous Winter Storm "Jonas", as it was called, dumped heavy snow then heavy rain along the coast with strong gusty winds and significant flooding. Now another coastal storm is set to bring another dose of heavy rain, gusty winds and flooding for late Sunday into Monday. Only this time, you don't have to worry about the snow. Rain will arrive late Sunday as a low pressure system to our south will begin moving offshore. The difference between the High Pressure to our north and Low Pressure to our south will cause a tight gradient for a period of time over our area allowing strong onshore winds to increase rapidly late Sunday night into Monday...
