The Big Apple woke up on Friday wrapped in a dense veil of clouds. The skyscrapers were hidden by fog predicted by the National Weather Service (NWS) office.
A severe storm system is forecast to hit our region Friday night. The National Weather Service issued a tornado watch for a large swath of northern New Jersey.
The tornado watch is in effect until 7 p.m. for Burlington, Hunterdon, Monmouth, Salem, Warren, Camden, Mercer, Morris, Somerset, Gloucester, Middelsex, Ocean and Sussex counties.
While some strong storms could reach New Jersey around 4 pm, these storms will move east toward New York City; however, cooler air will weaken the storm system.
