After weeks of tranquil fall weather, Central Jersey is in for a spell of wild weather this week, including the possibility of snow. The wild weather started Thursday afternoon with a tornado watch in effect until 7 p.m. as a cold front slices across New Jersey. It continues on Friday and Friday night as much colder air area drops into the region. Daytime highs are not expected to climb out of the 40s on Friday and Saturday, with gusts up to 30 mph on Saturday. Wind chills are expected to be in the 30s on Saturday. The Thursday noon runs of the American and European weather models are showing the possibility of snow in Central Jersey from about 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Friday mostly west of Somerville. However, the National Weather Service, in its updated forecast, discounts the possibility of any snow in Central Jersey with only "a few wet flakes mixing in" in elevated locations in northwestern New Jersey and the Lehigh Valley. It's too early to report the models' snowfall predictions. The ground is still warm. However, Sunday marks the eighth anniversary of a surprise snowstorm that dumped 4 to 7 inches of snow across Central Jersey.
