Beautiful Weekend In New Jersey Could End With Sunday Night Storms

This afternoon in New Jersey, you’re in for a pleasant and sunny day with temperatures reaching around 77°F. A light breeze from the northeast at about 10 mph will add to the comfortable conditions.

Tonight, the skies will remain mostly clear, and temperatures will cool down to a crisp 53°F. Winds will be calm, shifting to a gentle north breeze after midnight.

Sunday will start off similarly, with sunny skies and a slightly cooler high near 73°F. Winds from the north will gradually turn southeast in the afternoon, but remain light at 5 to 10 mph. Later in the evening, however, clouds will gather, bringing a 60% chance of showers and possibly a thunderstorm after 5 a.m. Temperatures will be mild overnight, around 61°F, with a light south wind. Rainfall will generally be light, though localized heavier amounts could occur with any thunderstorms.

Monday will begin with lingering showers and thunderstorms, most likely before 11 a.m. Afterward, there’s just a slight chance of rain through the early afternoon, but skies should clear up and give way to mostly sunny conditions. The high will once again reach 73°F, with winds shifting from the southwest in the morning to northwest by afternoon. Rainfall should remain light overall, unless a thunderstorm develops.

For October, these conditions are fairly typical for New Jersey, though the upcoming rain could be slightly above the average for this time of year, when the weather tends to be more stable and dry. Nonetheless, the sunny spells should balance out the showers, making for a mix of early autumn weather.
