WHAT TO KNOW:
Fair weather remains anchored over the East Coast this week.
Stormy weather stays to the north and back to the west.
Sunny skies should carry the Garden State through to the upcoming weekend.
Monday marked the 10th consecutive day with nothing collecting in the rain gauges.
The driest patch New Jersey has ever had so far this year is 12 days back in April. The outlook looks to keep that dry stretch of weather continuing for another 10 days.
The last time New Jersey went 20 consecutive days without some kind of measurable precipitation was 25 years ago. Mid-April to mid-May of 2001.
Monday night is quiet with skies being illuminated by a moon that is 99.4% illuminated. Nighttime lows will fade to the mid- and upper 40s to near 50.
Tuesday will see sunny skies and comfortably, cool temperatures. The winds will be light but from the northeast.
This should curd the afternoon warm-up to the low 60s.
If there is an opportunity for a brief, insignificant, rain chance, it would be late Wednesday into Thursday morning. The numerical chance of that occurring is less than 10% but you will notice a few more clouds collecting in the sky.
The temperatures begin to really warm up once again by the end of the week. Daytime highs will peak in the low to mid-70s Thursday and Friday.
Here's a hint about the Halloween forecast: It's very sweet for trick or treaters. Be safe. Sunset will be just before 6 p.m. on Oct. 31.
