Scattered showers are expected across New Jersey today from 1PM through 7PM. The storms fire up from tall, towering clouds overhead. Many storms will come with punchy lightning and downpours that cause localized area flooding.
Tomorrow's storms may induce flash flooding in parts of the state and can come with damaging winds. Storms for Tuesday arrive after 10AM and sweep across the state. The downpours are pretty rough in central NJ. Rain returns for Wednesday as well, but at a lighter intensity. The rain threat diminishes by Thursday midday and Friday to isolated showers instead.
The weekend ahead looks calm with a mostly sunny sky.
There is still wildfire smoke in the upper atmosphere that will create hazy conditions but also create a lot of lightning in these thunderstorms.
