Stormy and steamy NJ: Waves of thunderstorms on the way Thursday Dan Zarrow Published: September 25, 2025 Wiyada Arunwaikit

Thursday is going to be an active, changing, and occasionally stormy day for New Jersey. Several waves of showers and thunderstorms will ride through the state Thursday morning, afternoon, and early evening. Heavy rain (1-2") and severe weather (including gusts wind and an isolated tornado) are possible. In addition, it is going to be uncomfortably humid, with both temperatures and dew points in the 70s. Friday will be better, as a morning shower gives way to peeks of sun and only moderate humidity through the afternoon. On balance, the weekend looks OK. But I think a batch of rain will dampen some outdoor activities from late Saturday through midday Sunday.
