Weather

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.

Arctic air returns late Friday and we continue to track a powerful coastal storm that will produce multiple impacts on New Jersey Sunday into Monday.

What falls from the sky in New Jersey this weekend - rain, snow, ice, or all of the above - will depend totally on the exact track of the storm.

Although Wednesday is off to a cold (although less windy) start, temperatures should rise above freezing in the afternoon.

Once or twice every year, we end up talking about an intrusion of arctic air and a burst of extreme cold. And here we are.

Tuesday will be "the bottom of the barrel" of this particular cold snap. Highs only in the lower 20s. Wind chills stuck in the single digits all day. Ouch.
