The Special Olympics New Jersey will host its annual Polar Bear Plunge this weekend in Seaside Heights. We have everything you need to know.

It was not certain at one point that Friday would be sunny like each of the five days that preceded it, but as it turns out, just a few clouds will dot the sky as we end another work week.

The warmup across New Jersey has been incremental, if not imperceptible, over the last few days. But that will accelerate as slowly increasing cloud cover portends a wet weekend.

Wednesday is the fourth of what will eventually be six consecutive sunny, chilly days in the Garden State, as temperatures continue to warm — but not too much.

It is still plenty cold across the Garden State on this Tuesday, but although you wouldn't guess it, we are starting a gradual warmup that will have us feeling much more comfortable by the weekend.

Very cold temperatures are here to stay for a while, and we do have a decent shot at accumulating snow to start the weekend.

But New Jersey won't see all snow Saturday, as rising temperatures will force a transition to sleet and rain.

There are so many nuances to this weekend's forecast that Dan will be back here online on Friday. Such is the nature of winter in New Jersey!

You knew this wasn't going to last, right?

We could be in for some snow on Saturday but the pieces of the forecast are still coming together.
