The day begins with freeze warnings and frost advisories across New Jersey, Delaware, and parts of Pennsylvania. The NWS advises that the growing season is over in most areas due to widespread frost. Temperatures will climb to near 60°F today, with high cirrus clouds dimming the sunshine slightly by the afternoon.
Overnight lows will range from the 30s to 40s, with coastal areas remaining slightly warmer due to a developing onshore flow.
Near-80°F Highs Possible by Thursday, Cold Front Follows
By Wednesday and Thursday, southwest winds will push warm air into the region, raising temperatures to upper 70s—potentially 80°F in some spots. Thursday’s highs could come within range of record temperatures, though showers are likely by Friday as a cold front moves in from the north and west.
Thursday Forecast Highs:
Southern New Jersey: Upper 70s
Lehigh Valley & Northwest NJ: Mid 70s
After the cold front passes, high pressure will return for the weekend, bringing drier and cooler conditions.
Mariners Should Prepare for Gusty Conditions Late Week
Conditions will remain favorable for boating through Wednesday night, with light winds and seas below advisory levels. However, Small Craft Advisory conditions are expected by Thursday, with winds gusting up to 25 knots and seas reaching 5 feet. Mariners are advised to monitor conditions as the front approaches.
Elevated Fire Risk Continues Despite Rising Humidity
Even with increased humidity starting Tuesday, fire risks remain elevated due to ongoing drought conditions and dry vegetation. Officials caution that burn restrictions may still be in place. For the latest on burn bans, visit your state’s fire management agency.
