Rockin' The 70s: Mother Nature Streams Springlike Temps In NJ, PA You'll swear spring has sprung when temperatures this weekend reach -- and even break -- 70 degrees in parts of New Jersey and especially Pennsylvania, an area weather expert said.

Start Of Spring Brings Big Change In Weather Pattern After a stretch of cold air followed by a storm system that brought mainly rain, heavy at times, to the region, the start of spring will usher in a big change in the weather pattern.

Hang On Tight: Downed Trees, Power Lines Coming As Winter’s Last Gasp Hits 50+ MPH Rain and snowfall totals are always tough to forecast, but not wind. And according to North Jersey's premiere meteorologist, sustained winds of 20 to 35 mph will start kicking up Sunday afternoon and continue, nonstop, well into Monday. Gusts will hit more than 50 mph -- a last, powerful gasp from winter and the first genuine sign that spring is on its way, Joe Cioffi said. Unfortunately, that means downed trees and utility lines, along with the power outages and driving risks they bring. This follows a Saturday night rainstorm, offering “wind-blown hair, hat hair, and bad hair weath…
Rise In Temps Could Bring New Round Of Thunderstorms Rise In Temps Could Bring New Round Of Thunderstorms
Rise In Temps Could Bring New Round Of Thunderstorms Sunday's weather will mark a big change after a rain-drenched, raw Saturday. For starters, it will be much warmer -- with the high temperature in the mid- to upper-70s -- and mainly dry, with just a slight chance of showers. In fact, some sunshine will even return. But with the warmup will come the risk of thunderstorms, mainly after noontime and into the evening. "With the expected downpours moving over already-saturated grounds, there will be the risk for localized flash flooding and renewed river and stream flooding from runoff," AccuWeather.com Meteorologist Danielle Knittle…
