Im going to keep my Opening Statements somewhat brief because i know senator booker would like to make a statement. Im pretty data driven. The data, ...

Fortunately staying far enough out to sea so that south jersey and jersey shore only saw cloud cover. Heavy rains were well off shore. As that storm continues to strengthen and pull off to the north east, it is generating some pretty good swells.
