TUESDAY’S FORECAST | Welcome to our mildest day in 11 days! Even still, highs will be colder than average and snow showers are in the forecast for part of the Jersey Shore.
Not only that big another bitter blast will unload on NJ later this week. This one could be even colder than the last.

The Monthly Weather Roundup focused on January’s weather patterns, particularly the significant snowstorm and persistent cold.
Dave Robinson, New Jersey State Climatologist, discussed the January 25th storm, which brought snow, sleet, and freezing rain across the state, with snowfall totals ranging from 8 to 12 inches in Monmouth County.
He noted that while the storm was impactful, it could have been more severe if not for the cold air that limited snow accumulation.
The cold weather dominated the latter part of January, with Dave explaining that while it was cold enough for ice skating and cross-country skiing, it wasn’t record-breaking.
He emphasized that despite the recent cold spell, New Jersey has been warming over time, with the coldest days becoming less extreme.
The discussion also covered the state’s ongoing drought conditions, with January precipitation being below normal, and the impact of snow and ice on water availability.
Recap the month of weather that was. It’s all Jersey, with two of Jersey’s best weather guys. New Jersey State Climatologist Dr. Dave Robinson as well as Meteorologist Joe Martucci, owner of Cup A Joe Weather and Drone take you through the temperatures, rain, snow, coastal flooding and much more.
New episodes come out around the beginning of every month.

Shoutout to the electrical workers trying to get the power back on in this snow and cold. Yeesh.
230PM: Start shoveling and snow blowing!
Don’t wait for the rain to fall to shovel. That will freeze and because more of a pain (literally) to clear off Monday. Do it now, while the snow just ended and it’s still pretty fluffy and light.

FRIDAY NIGHT UPDATE | There’s a change in the forecast. The snow/sleet is the same but it’s looking more likely that freezing rain is going to create ice rinks on untreated roads and sidewalks Sunday… Don’t forget the bitter cold too. I have it all here.
Also, I’ll be on LiveNOW by Fox at 915PM Friday to discuss the winter storm. You can stream it live on YouTube or your Smart TV.
FRIDAY MORNING UPDATE: My snow/sleet forecast remains the same for this Sunday. However, now freezing rain will be added into the mix, not good. Before the winter storm, it’ll be bitterly cold. You’ll need the hat, jacket, scarves and gloves with wind chills around 0F!
THURSDAY AM FORECAST: It’s finally time to talk about how much snow will fall across the Jersey Shore. This looks to be a snow to sleet/rain and possibly back to snow for the AC Expressway south. North of there? Mostly snow. Coastal flooding is likely at least once, too.
WEDNESDAY’S FORECAST: Looking at the data, I’m confident saying a winter storm is ON Sunday into Monday. Plan on cancelling plans. Here’s what I can tell you know.

This was a tough system. It took until my very last snowfall forecast early Sunday morning to get it to a good place. It paid off.
The highest snowfall totals were along the New Jersey Turnpike corridor. Generally, two to four inches of snow fell from Salem County, northeast to Bergen County.
Closer to the coast, inland Monmouth County also saw two to four inches of snow. Elsewhere was less. However, everywhere, even Cape May, did get a coating of snow.
