winter weather

January 30, 2019 - heavy snow squalls pass through New Jersey, including downtown Toms River where this time lapse video was shot.

It's nice to be able to warm up your car before driving off into the winter cold, but here in New Jersey you could be breaking the law!

It seemed more like August than January today in Ocean County when unusual winter thunderstorms passed through Toms River. We caught this time lapse video!

The weekend of January 6th and 7th, 2018 were so cold in New Jersey that numerous records were broken, one going back over 130 years!

The Jersey Shore could see the first snow of the season. Meteorologist Dan Zarrow says we could possibly see anywhere from 1-4 inches of the white stuff. Winter Storm Watch will be in effect for Ocean County and a Winter Weather Advisory for Monmouth County. Red...

Yesterday, we talked about this year's long range forecast from the Old Farmer's Almanac. If it's to be believed, we're looking at a wetter than normal winter, but a little milder, too.

Dear Mother Nature,
Can I call you "Mom"? Is that ok?
We need to talk.

While we got the heads up from WOBM Meteorologist Dan Zarrow to expect occasional snow showers today, the heavy snow squalls that have passed through Ocean County throughout the day have made for a dicey afternoon and evening.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again - I wouldn't want to be a meteorologist. When the forecast goes exactly as you predict, nobody really notices or makes a point to thank you. But when a forecast "busts", people are calling for your head.

As we sit here only 9 days until spring begins, not only are we cleaning up from some late season snow, but we could be looking down the barrel of a more substantial storm early next week.
