nj snow

New Jersey snow…in October. This was what it looked like yesterday in Hunterdon County. Heavy, wet snow blanketed the area. By the time it was said and done, we saw about 2-3 inches in my neighborhood. Just the day before, I bared the 50’s wearing flip-flops, so I guess it’s time to put those away for the season, and break out the sneakers and boots.

Happy first snow in New Jersey.

By the way, I hate the snow. I’m not an avid skiier, nor do I love to go ice skating. I am a sunshine and beach kind of girl, so let’s get this thing they call snow and winter out of the way, so that we can go back to the beach. ;)

New Jersey Weather? Wet

by Jersey Girl

The New Jersey weather today is wet, wet, wet. I don’t know about every inch of New Jersey, but my Hunterdon County is soaking in rain. We just had a massive branch fall off of neighbors tree into our backyard today from the winds and rain. Whoosh, down it came, and it was easily 10 feet long and 6 feet wide!

It’s a soaker, and I’m hoping the New Jersey weather clears up soon!

At least tomorrow we’ll see sunny skies and 64 degrees again. I’m missing the 70’s, but the 60’s are still okay by me.
How are you going to spend your Sunday tomorrow? It’s not too late to visit the pumpkin farms!

If you’re free on Monday, Wildwood is having a fishing tournament on the 27th. If you want to register, be at the Firehouse at 2nd and New Jersey Avenue in North Wildwood between 6am-7:30am. Fishing will start at 7:30 and go until 2:30. There is an entrance fee. More details? 609-522-1526

New Jersey Magazines

New Jersey Magazines range from “Weird NJ” to the “Jersey Journal” which is more of a newspaper subscription. It’s funny, because when you go to see what magazines are in the NJ area, you have to search “New Jersey” and “NJ” separately. Wouldn’t search engines be smart enough to know that NJ=New Jersey? Anyway, these [...]
