Colder Temps Bring Winter Weather To New Jersey This Weekend

It’s about to get a lot colder across New Jersey this weekend.

The weather today will feature a mix of mostly sunny skies and intermittent chances for a few light sprinkles in the morning and again in the early afternoon. Temperatures are expected to reach a high near 45 degrees, which is on the cooler side for this time of year. A west wind between 8 and 13 mph will add a bit of chill to the air, making it feel brisk.

As night falls, conditions will remain mostly clear, with temperatures dropping to around 29 degrees. The west wind will continue at about 10 mph, contributing to a crisp autumn night.

Saturday will bring bright sunshine but with cooler temperatures, as the high will only reach near 39 degrees. Wind chill values in the range of 25 to 30 will make it feel quite cold despite the sunshine. A west wind of 8 to 14 mph will persist, maintaining a chilly atmosphere throughout the day. The clear skies will extend into Saturday night, with temperatures dipping to a low near 24 degrees. Winds will ease slightly but remain noticeable at 8 to 11 mph.

Sunday’s forecast mirrors Saturday’s weather closely, with mostly sunny skies and a high around 38 degrees. The west wind, picking up to 9 to 13 mph, will continue to bring a brisk feel to the day. Sunday night will again be mostly clear, with lows settling near 26 degrees, wrapping up the weekend with crisp and quiet weather.

Compared to average late-November conditions, this stretch of weather leans cooler, as highs typically hover closer to the low 50s. While sunshine dominates the forecast, the steady west wind and lower-than-usual temperatures ensure a wintry edge to the atmosphere, signaling the transition deeper into the colder season.
