New Jersey Braces for Another Major Snowstorm This Weekend

More Snow Heads To NJ. Here is What to Expect.

Blizzard Conditions Expected Again in NJ

According to AccuWeather experts, a coastal storm system that is predicted to develop into a strong nor'easter and "bomb cyclone" might dump three to six inches of snow over portions of New Jersey this weekend and perhaps bring blizzard conditions to the Jersey Shore.

In a storm update on Wednesday afternoon, AccuWeather predicted that inland parts of the Garden State would experience 1 to 3 inches of snow and strong gusts on Saturday and Sunday.

New Jersey is in the likely target zone for snow, heavy gusts, and coastal flooding, according to AccuWeather experts, despite the fact that there is still a great deal of uncertainty over the storm's route.

For the Mid-Atlantic region and coastal areas of New England, forecasters predict a "close call" between light to moderate snowfall and heavy snowfall.

According to conflicting forecasts, the storm will occasionally remain several hundred miles offshore while approaching close enough to the Atlantic coast to cause significant coastal consequences and heavy snowfall.

According to forecasters, the offshore scenario would reduce the quantity of snow and coastal flooding.

The majority of forecast models appear to concur that the storm will intensify fast enough to be categorized as a bomb cyclone, despite differences in the storm's trajectory.

The storm this weekend "will raise winds and seas, leading to significant coastal flooding and beach erosion," according to AccuWeather.

Although it's too early to determine which places would be affected, the private forecasting firm adds that "blizzard conditions are also likely in the hardest-hit areas."

The majority of the Jersey Shore is listed on one AccuWeather forecast map as one among the eastern U.S. regions that may experience "potential" blizzard conditions.

Although it hasn't yet released forecasts for wind or snowfall, the National Weather Service says it is still keeping an eye on the storm system.

Although it is still too early to predict precise timing, snowfall totals, or implications, the National Weather Service (NWS) says there is a growing chance that a new system will move into the region. As the week progresses, forecasters advise locals to stay informed and check your local forecast.
