All right, we want to check in with meteorologist Alex Calamia.
Now we have a mixed bag of everything. Tornadoes, snow, storms.
Let's talk about it. Yeah, all in the next 24 hours.
So we're going to start first with that tornado threat
and we've had flash flooding already occurring in Monmouth County.
So this is not going to be a fun afternoon.
This is the next line that we're tracking.
It's moving over Pennsylvania right now and it contains hail.
So with that will come a risk for some gusty wind
and of course we'll have that hail threat
And this is going to be the middle of the afternoon
for us in Central and in South Jersey.
But that flash flood warning from Monmouth County,
even though the rain from that storm is over,
the flash flood conditions, Route 35, Garden State Parkway,
that continues until 345 or until they decide to expire that alert.
We picked up over an inch of rain, up to two inches of rain there.
But the good news is that particular storm is now pushing out
into the Raritan Bay and eventually off toward New York.
So the next threat is going to be sort of.
This area highlighted in yellow.
This is that line I was talking about over Pennsylvania now.
It moves through during the 2 to 3 o'clock hour, you know,
the evening commute. And with that, there will be some hail.
There will be, again, a risk for localized flooding.
And so, yeah, the rain is spotty,
but where it does rain, at times it really pours.
Then it tapers off a bit tonight,
and that nor'easter develops over New England.
We're on the back end of it, so look
at these temperatures Friday morning.
You're in the 30s in North Jersey.
That's cold enough for wet snowflakes.
Your best chance for wet snowflakes,
that's going to be the mid-morning tomorrow.
You see some green on the screen,
but you also see some blue, and that will be the risk here.
Mostly just novelty, sort of first flakes of the season.
Big deal. Not necessarily a big deal because of anything accumulating.
The risk for accumulation is very minor, if any at all.
But our higher elevations could see a coating of snow.
So there will be a little bit of wintry weather potential with that.
Temperatures are only in the 30s there. You're only 43 degrees.
That's your high temperature that I have forecasted for Newark.
So usually one of our warmer spots.
It's feeling like the 30s most of Friday.
The rain will taper off throughout the day,
but it doesn't really clear out until Saturday.
It's pretty cloudy this weekend, which is
We'll keep temperatures mostly in the 40s, but look at this.
A nice rebound to look forward to for next week.
