Today will be mostly cloudy, with bigger breaks of sun farther south. Rain showers will eventually develop in the north and spread across the state overnight. Most of the rain holds off until sunset, but a light shower can’t be ruled out beforehand, especially in northwestern New Jersey.
Overnight rain may come in bursts, with a few thunderstorms. Rain lingers into Thursday and gradually dissipates. Totals could reach 0.25 to 0.5 inches by the time it wraps up Thursday morning. There will be breaks of sun on Thursday, but conditions will remain unsettled. High temperatures will be close to normal, in the upper 60s to lower 70s, while a significant warmup arrives for the weekend, with highs in the lower to mid-80s.
