nor'easter

This week's nor'easter isn't expected to be nearly as powerful as Sandy, however emergency management officials see it as vital in preparing them for any future storms that will be deadlier.

A Nor’easter is expected to bring several days of rain and rough surf to the southern part of the state.

Ahead of tomorrow's storm, Brick Township police are advising people living on the township's barrier island territory and flood-prone coastal mainland spots to move inland.

The prediction for this weekend's nor'easter has ranged from 1-8" for our listening area...meaning we can expect empty grocery store shelves and mass panic any second now. But what do you really need to prepare for a snowstorm?

Finally, some good weather news. Alan Kasper says the latest storm he's been tracking will have minimal impact. if any, on our area. That's incredibly good news for a weather weary Jersey Shore.

Lengthy power outages, property damage, lack of information...it all seems never-ending and it's starting to get to all of us.

The Jersey Shore got covered in heavy snow just barely a week after Hurricane Sandy, with some places like Toms River seeing a foot of the white stuff. Naturally, the kids want to run out and play...but it's not exactly safe this time around.

Down from 2.7 million, more than 300,000 electric customers remained without power late Wednesday from Hurricane Sandy last week, but the second part of the one-two punch on New Jersey, this week's nor'easter, put a snag in the state's recovery efforts.

Wednesday's nor'easter brought the winter's first snowfall to the same areas affected by Hurricane Sandy knocking out power again for thousands.

The nor'easter is here just in time to make for a snowy ride home.

There are so many words to describe each of us on the Jersey Shore. Shocked, exhausted, concerned, cold, heartbroken, resilient, focused and neighborly are some that come to mind, but one that doesn't is ready, especially when it comes to another storm.

Coastal residents thought they got some good news Tuesday about the upcoming Nor'easter but now the storm has taken a wintry turn.
