September brought warm beach days, then a nor’easter that wouldn’t quit. I join Dr. John Krasting, New Jersey State Climatologist, to break down the Jersey Shore’s repeated flooding, powerful winds and drought relief. Plus, we explore what a strong El Niño could mean for winter—and why snow is no sure thing.

New Jersey just went through one of its muggiest stretches in years. Meteorologist Joe Martucci and State Climatologist Dr. John Krasting explain why August felt so humid.

Around August 7, coastal South Jersey saw dew points near 75 degrees around the clock—levels of lasting humidity the state has not experienced in 10 to 15 years.

Did you feel the heat wave in May? 🌞 Here's what happened during those sizzling days! From record-breaking temperatures to the surprising sea breezes, this month was a wild ride for New Jersey’s weather. We hit highs of 100°F in some areas, making it one of the hottest Mays on record. Surprisingly, it wasn’t as humid, which made the heat more bearable. But those unexpected sea breezes? They were Mother Nature’s way of balancing the scorching heat. On the 20th, temperatures dropped dramatically as the cool ocean air swept in, proving how dynamic our local weather can be. As we head into summer, let’s keep an eye on these patterns. How will they shape our beach days ahead? Stay updated on the latest weather trends – link in bio for the full weather roundup!

January will be either the 3rd or 4th driest January on record and that only means we're running out of time to escape drought before spring comes and water usage goes up. Otherwise, the big story was the cold! Temperatures were below average more than half the month. Despite the chill though, we only broke one record.

New Jersey's September weather broke the usual patterns. It began with a brisk chill. Then it shifted back to summer warmth. It's one of only a few times on record when the second half of September was warmer than the first half. Overall, temperatures ended up a bit above average.

Dave and Joe then noted drought warnings in northern areas. Coastal regions faced heavy rain. Eroding beach sands now threaten winter storm defenses. They also discussed Hurricane Sandy’s 13th anniversary and whether memories of the storm are fading. Stay tuned for updates on hurricane risks and stunning fall foliage.

November capped off the driest climatological autumn on record in the state, with 3.67" of precipitation between September and November, according to New Jersey State Climatologist Dave Robinson. Those records go back to 1895, also. The next driest was 4.24", too! This year blew out the old mark set back in 1922.

November ended our statewide longest dry streak on record, too. Dave Robinson and I talk about why the recent rain was NOT enough to cure drought.

Get this, a look back at a near record breaking warm November and more on our Monthly Weather Roundup.
