3 Snowfall Predictions For NJ: What Will El Niño Bring?

Three forecasters have weighed in on what El Niño means for New Jersey this winter, and the general consensus leans toward warmer and wetter conditions rather than a blockbuster snow season. The Old Farmer’s Almanac puts the state in a “mild, dry” zone, the National Weather Service sees a 40 to 50 percent chance of above-normal temperatures and precipitation, and AccuWeather warns this could be the strongest El Niño on record, potentially topping the historic events of 1982-83 and 1997-98.
