Warm Enough At The Shore To Break A Record Today?

After the single digit temperature with below zero wind chills we've dealt with over the past week, the temperatures will soar into the upper 50's today. so, how close to a record will it be?

Well it turns out that even with a swing over over 60 degrees in our temperatures over the past few days, we're not even really approaching a record high for today's date in the Jersey Shore area.

Turns out the record high for today is an amazing 76 degrees in the Freehold/Marlboro area back in 1954. That day in '54 the Long Branch/Oakhurst area's high was 71 degrees. Our meteorologist Dan Zarrow is calling for a high of 60 for us today.

Not exactly a record, but we're not exactly complaining, either.  Check out Dan's weather blogs anytime.
