Storm Wrangler 12: Conditions in Upper Freehold

Hey there, Jim. Yeah, I think you described it perfectly. This has been a wild storm and it all is depending on where you are. Of course, we're with Storm Wrangler 12. We've been on the roads for much of the afternoon. We were in Jackson when he was in the upper freehold area and we are kind of clipping the storm there. Actually seeing the sun a little bit, so we decided to come here to Monmouth County, Upper Freehold Township, and that's when things really took a turn. We really saw a lot of hail. It was hitting our windshield, hitting the jeep really loud. We were really concerned that maybe something would crack. Nothing did, thankfully, but that was a real concern. Visibility was low. People were taking it slow on the roads. But you can see now, since my 5 o'clock hit, the rain has stopped here in Monmouth County. The conditions really took a turn. But something I do want to bring up, which could get worse as we head into tomorrow, is some ponding on the roads. That, mixed with leaves, terrible conditions for drivers. We will definitely be taking it slow tonight. A lot of people have not been taking it slow. We're kind of at this fork in the road. People are not really taking it slow, but this is my warning for you now. Take it slow. A lot of ponding on the roads, a lot of leaves. And as we get into that storm tomorrow, it could just get worse. So be extra cautious. Stay inside today if you can for the rest of the night.
