Nor'easter Threatens New Jersey with Strong Winds and Rain Next Week
26 Oct
Summary
- Increasing risk of a storm impacting New Jersey mid to late next week
- Potential for moderate rainfall and gusty winds, with northeast winds up to 25 mph
- Concerns over additional beach erosion in coastal areas
According to the latest weather forecasts, there is an increasing risk of a nor'easter impacting New Jersey next week. The National Weather Service has warned of a "dynamic setup" that could result in a significant coastal storm developing off the Carolinas and tracking northward along the East Coast.
The storm is expected to bring periods of moderate rainfall and gusty winds to New Jersey, with northeast winds potentially reaching 15-25 mph along the coast, with higher gusts. This could lead to additional beach erosion in the coastal and back bay areas that were hard hit by a recent storm a few weeks ago.
While the exact timing and track of the midweek storm system remain uncertain, forecasters are closely monitoring the situation. In the meantime, the region is experiencing chilly temperatures, with a frost advisory in effect for parts of New Jersey tonight and another round of frost possible on Monday night, particularly in interior sections of the state.
