We are waking up to spring-like temperatures across Newark and the North Jersey region as we begin this Monday morning.
Good morning! If you’re heading out to catch the bus for work, taking a morning walk, or getting the dog out early, it’s currently around 54 degrees at 4:30 a.m.
The air feels fresh and comfortable. It’s a little cool, so you may want to bring along a light jacket, but there’s no doubt that spring is starting to settle in across the region.
Today is shaping up to be a beautiful day and it could be a perfect opportunity to enjoy lunch outdoors if your schedule allows.
Skies are setting up for wall-to-wall sunshine across the area. In downtown Newark it’s a bit chilly right now, but temperatures will warm up nicely once the sun climbs higher in the sky.
According to the National Weather Service, today will be sunny with a high near 70 degrees. Winds will start out calm before becoming southwest at about 5 to 9 miles per hour during the afternoon.
Tonight, skies will remain mostly clear with overnight temperatures dropping to around 44 degrees.
