Was out in Trenton today where ice has clogged the city water works new 9 million dollar Delaware River intake system. Someone's got some splainin' to do.
-
we were out shooting an ice safety package on the Barnegat Bay in Harvey Cedars. It was absolutely brutal outside. Temp 30, winds gusting to 40 plus. That was at noon. I'm still cold.

I was out in them here in NJ for work especially Jackson - parts of the area are a ticking time bomb especially western Ocean County with all of the senior communities. With that being said, the worst fire in NJ I've covered couldn't even be compared to what I saw out in CA during the week I was there.

I was out in the November 2018 where the Woolsey Fire broke out in the San Fernando Valley area. Those Santa Ana winds are no joke. They were cold, came in bursts and waves, and the western end of the neighborhood was evacuated. I think we had 60 mph plus at my aunt's house in Woodland Hills and flames were visible from the driveway. Absolutely terrifying. Was watching the coverage on ABC7 this morning. This looks way worse for that region than what I saw in 2018 and that was bad.

Manahawkin in Southern Ocean County got less snow than Wall Township in southern Monmouth County.

Snowfall NYC subforum Jan 6 and OBS if needed
Big Jims Videos replied to wdrag's topic in New York City Metro
Inch and a half at my place. Almost 2 inches at my office in Wall. Equals the most snow in a single storm here since January 2022. -

I'm in Ship Bottom LBI. MEH. 3/4 inch, was barely flurrying now back to light snow. Roads went from snow covered to just wet with the lightening of the precip. -

This has the potential to give a lot of us the most snow we've seen since January 2022 (I'm talking about central coastal NJ who have gotten screwed) It would only take slightly more than an inch at my place to be specific in Point Beach to beat 2022/2023 and 2023/2024 single storm snow total. -

Icon with a much slower exit as some Atlantic moisture lingers over Jersey. Interesting solution. -
Then you read on to see the hyped forecast post is sponsored by Big Al's Travel Deals and Snow Blowers. So not only are they playing off hype mongering, but they're also profiting off of telling others not to do this, then doing it.

It's the hypocrisy of the social media weather fan pages that crack me up. They're all "don't post hour 300 maps bc so much can change" and then they post it and say *this is the image circulating around Facebook etc. I'm posting it to give you the truth about it." Yet they're posting it for clicks and are jealous of the pages that do it first.

we didn't get nearly as much at my place as they did down south - LBI down to AC jackpotted in that - I did get to stand in it on the AC boardwalk all morning which made up for the loss at home.
-
haven't had a decent storm at my place along the beach since January 2018 when we got 22 inches and 5 hours of blizzard conditions - west of the parkway amounts dropped off significantly. We failed to get an inch the last two winters.
-
First frost this morning at the beach. One of the latest I can remember. Ever.
-
Lightning here in Ocean County
-
Manasquan reservoir now sitting just under 52% capacity

DROUGHT WARNING coming to NJ statewide tomorrow - governor will likely announce late morning.
-
you missed nothing except New Jersey is on fire.

.1 at the beaches. More fire risk this week.
-
November is on average one of the drier months. We'll see what happens.
-
Cranberry farmers are taking a serious hit - especially if we don't get rain in November - this is my piece from yesterday. I love visiting these farms - the visuals are stunning. https://newjersey.news12.com/farmer-weeks-without-rain-is-impacting-new-jerseys-cranberry-harvest
-
Spent the day at a Pinelands cranberry farm - these folks REALLY need water as they're right in the middle of the harvest.
-
Really concerned Thursday for fire spread. The military base fire still burning at Ft Dix looks like a mushroom cloud and visible all the way from the beach bridges today.

Here's my piece on the fire risk and drought conditions from yesterday https://newjersey.news12.com/fire-officials-ongoing-droughts-cause-risk-of-wildfires-in-new-jersey

Heading to the NJ forest service tomorrow to speak with our NJ FFS officers on the late season fire dangers - It's a busy season for state parks for camping this time of year and there are many restrictions now in place with open fires. If you know anyone heading out camping or hiking, let them know the risk is unusually high for October. We've had a series of fires down in Burlington County this week.
