Ocean City got a taste of spring on Tuesday with temperatures that climbed into the high 60s under bright sunshine — but the first official day of spring on Friday (March 20) won’t be anywhere near so nice.
The weather will be cold enough that snow is in the conversation. While it’s not likely that Ocean City will see any significant accumulation, Friday morning may start with the sight of snowflakes.
With the temperature expected to dip to 30 degrees on Thursday night as precipitation moves into the area, Friday morning could start with snow before turning to rain as the temperature climbs to a high of 39 degrees.
The National Weather Service forecast calls for less than an inch of accumulation for most of southern New Jersey.
The news doesn’t get a whole lot better in the following days. Predicted high temperatures through the middle of next week remain in the 40s.
