Big waves, beach erosion, storm surge, and coastal flooding are likely. Significant rain, wind, and severe weather are unlikely.

In Beach Haven, Ocean County, swimmers created a human chain - there was a chopper overhead and boaters nearby.

Ian's remnants will continue to soak New Jersey over the next 48 to 72 hours, lingering nearby until midweek with rain, wind, clouds, and storm surge.

Hurricane Ian will make its final landfall along the South Carolina coast on Friday, pushing sloppy, rainy, windy weather into New Jersey this weekend.

While the remnants of Hurricane Ian will be near New Jersey from Friday through Tuesday, only a piece of the weekend will feature truly nasty, washout weather.

As Ian strengthens over the Caribbean Sea — a full 1,500 miles away from New Jersey — we have to watch for potential impacts in the first few days of October.

The first full day of fall will feel positively October-ish, although temperatures will moderate across New Jersey for the final weekend of September.

Both Friday and Saturday should be classic, gorgeous early September days; but clouds, humidity, and raindrops return to New Jersey's forecast early next week.

Humidity levels remain comfortable for now, although New Jersey will trend stickier by the end of the week.

This will be the coolest, most humid, and stormiest day of the week, as the sweatiest heat wave of summer 2022 so far begins.
