The weather will run hot and cold this week in New Jersey and could include a snow storm on Thursday, though that portion of the forecast remains less certain.
Temperatures will climb into the 50s on Tuesday in New Jersey and into the 60s in parts of the state on Wednesday, according to AccuWeather.com.AccuWeather.com
Temperatures will reach the low 60s on Wednesday before dropping 30 degrees the following day.
There’s also a chance of two separate bouts of precipitation, the National Weather Service says.
Monday will be decent with a mix of sun and clouds and temperatures climbing into the mid 40s.
There’s a chance of rain overnight into Tuesday. Lows should be in the mid 30s to low 40s across most of the state. The exception is Sussex and Warren counties, where there’s a freezing rain advisory from 1 a.m. to 10 a.m. Tuesday.
Temperatures will get considerably warmer during a rainy Tuesday. Highs will be in the low 50s. It stays mild Tuesday night with lows only falling into the 40s.
Wednesday will be even milder under partly sunny skies. Highs should be in the upper 50s in most of the state with parts of South Jersey getting into the 60s.
Temperatures drop sharply Wednesday night — into the 20s — ahead of a possible winter storm.
The potential storm that could hit our area Wednesday night into Thursday could bring 1 to 3 inches of snow to northern New Jersey.
Other parts of the state could also get what the NWS calls “plowable snow.”
There is a high degree of uncertainty, though, as the atmospheric dynamics that might cause the storm to develop are still over the Pacific Ocean, according to the weather service’s morning forecast discussion.
It will be sunny and cold Thursday once any snow moves away from the area. Highs should be around the freezing mark or just slightly above.
