Yeah, because that's not sleep. That is literally a thunderstorm
that is so strong that the updraft brings that rain
so high in the atmosphere that it produces those hailstones.
So that's not coming from cold weather.
That's coming from intense thunderstorms.
We actually do have some intense thunderstorms
this morning over the Atlantic Ocean.
This is your low pressure.
This is the nor'easter that's developing.
Now we're on the back end of it.
We've got cold weather across the state, and we do have our first
flakes mixing in with some of that rain towards Sussex County.
It's 35, though, so we don't have accumulation.
Everybody's above freezing, but we do have cold weather,
and so just a few hundred feet above these.
Mid-30 degree temperatures is below freezing temperatures.
That's why you're seeing some of the blue on the map here.
Sparta, Andover, Vernon, you've got some rain.
You've got a couple of wet snowflakes mixing in right now.
Here's what it looks like for the rest of the morning.
It's not a heavy rain.
It's a steady rain.
It's breezy.
It's just a really messy morning commute.
You've got to keep in mind yesterday we got...
Quite a bit of rain, so they're still ponding on the roads from that,
and we're just not drying out at all today.
1 p.m., still in the 40s, still cold out there,
still looking at some wet snowflakes in our higher elevations.
Again, no major accumulations.
7 p.m. dinnertime, guess what?
The radar is not changing.
It is still gloomy, so the whole day is this cold,
steady, really gross rain.
Saturday starts off cold and...
Dry with some sunshine, the morning sunrise looks great,
but you're below freezing Flemington, Morristown.
We're not even that far from freezing in Newark.
It's going to be more overcast on Saturday afternoon
when that wind comes back in.
Temperatures are only in the 40s for Saturday afternoon.
And Sunday looks like the better day because of that.
We're going to make it back to the 50s on Sunday.
We're just a little bit on the chilly side.
You'll feel like it's in the mid-40s on Sunday.
But it's an improvement from today.
It's an improvement from tomorrow.
And that's going to be the story as we move into the 10-day.
You see, every single day gets better than the last.
You don't usually see that in fall time.
But by the end of next week, guys.
We are cruising.
