The Bottom Line
The last time we had widespread precipitation over New Jersey was Sunday, January 3rd. After 11 days of silent, stagnant conditions, a potent little storm system is set to swing through the Garden State Friday evening. It is going to be stormy and wet, but not wintry.

Friday
We begin the day with light fog across much of the state. I haven t seen any visibility numbers below 2 miles - so it s just going to be something you ll notice off in the distance, not an urgent travel hazard necessarily.
