"New Jersey Braces for Severe Weather: Heavy Rain, Strong Winds, and Emerging Snow Threat"

New Jersey is bracing for more heavy rain and wind gusts up to 60 mph on Friday, exacerbating flooding near rivers and along the Jersey Shore. Temperatures are expected to plunge over the weekend, with a potential snow or wintry mix threat emerging for Tuesday. The Passaic River has already flooded, and some areas may see 1 to 1.5 inches of rain, with higher amounts possible in certain areas. After a mild Saturday, temperatures will sharply drop, and a second storm threat on Tuesday may bring accumulating snow. Flood warnings remain in effect for several counties, and less than 10,000 homes and businesses are without power.
