New Jersey Weather Sunday Afternoon: 61.1 Degrees and Clear at the Day's High, With a Cold 39-Degree Night Ahead
The station's live feed at midday-plus puts New Jersey at 61.1 degrees under clear skies - effectively the high for the day - before a drop to 39.4 tonight, the coldest night on the week's board, and a dry Election Day at 67.7 still ahead.
Sunday has reached its peak. The station's live weather feed, read this afternoon, puts New Jersey at 61.1 degrees under clear skies, feeling like 56.3 with the breeze - within half a degree of the day's forecast high of 61.6, with no precipitation recorded and none expected through the rest of the day. It is prime weather for the two things closing out the afternoon: the marathon's last finishers across the river and the final hours of in-person early voting, which ends at 6 p.m.
Tonight turns genuinely cold. The feed's low for tonight is 39.4 degrees, the coldest night on the seven-day board the station carries - colder than Monday night's 40.6 and Tuesday night's 43.9. Anyone with a Monday-morning plan that starts early, from the first Portal cutover commute to a trip to the county clerk, should expect a frost-edge start even though no frost advisory is in this desk's feed.
The rest of the near term stays dry. Monday tops out at 64.2 with a 3 percent precipitation chance, and Election Day itself - Tuesday, November 3 - now reads 67.7 degrees with a 2 percent chance, a touch cooler than this morning's figure but still a dry, mild day for lines at the polls. Wednesday holds at 67.1 and dry before the pattern changes late in the week, a turn the Weather Desk details in its companion outlook this cycle.
