Fog, Rain, and Possibly Thunder!

Good Morning Kean! It's currently drizzling with a temperature of 52°. Dense fog is covering the Union, NJ in some locations, and will spread out for much of the Union county area later this morning and throughout the day. Visibility, currently 0, is a major concern since the density of the following will increase rapidity during the morning hours. Please drive slowly.

Light rain showers are expected throughout much of the morning as well. The rain showers will be scattered for the afternoon. However, around 5pm is when the moderate to heavier rainfall will move in and last through the overnight hours. These heavier rain showers could hold a rumble of thunder in them too. The high temperature for today will reach into the lower to middle 60s-64°.

Tuesday will be cloudy for the most of the early morning hours and clearing out toward the mid-morning and afternoon. 60° will be the high temperature and the low temperature will be in lower 40s.

Light Rain!

Hi Kean, It's 87° right now but it feels like 94°. However, that temperature will be dropping into the lower 80s and upper 70s for the evening. Winds are mildly coming from the south and east. Light showers are moving across the area now.

The temperature for tomorrow will rise to a high of 75° in the morning but will drop to the lower 70s by the afternoon. More showers will continue to pop up across New Jersey by the early morning hours on Thursday since a cold front will pass through the region late tonight and during the overnight hours. There will be heavier rain showers throughout the remainder of the day going into the evening. These heavy showers can cause flooding in poor drainage areas.

Friday will have a rainy start as well, but will clear up gradually by the early afternoon. The high temperature for Friday is 82° and the low temperature will drop to 63° degrees for Friday evening. - N.H.F.
