Residents across Newark and the North Jersey region are waking up to a mild 51 degrees this Tuesday morning, setting the stage for what is expected to be the warmest and most springlike day of the week.
After a beautiful start to the week on Monday, today promises to be just as nice—if not better—with temperatures soaring to near 70 degrees.
However, this brief taste of spring won't stick around for long, so those looking to enjoy the sunshine should take advantage of it while it lasts.
While the day will bring pleasant conditions, early risers will still want to grab a jacket as morning temperatures remain chilly.
According to the National Weather Service, clear skies will dominate throughout the day, making for ideal outdoor conditions.
Forecast for Tuesday:
- Daytime: Sunny, with a high near 70°F. Light winds will shift south at 5 to 9 mph in the afternoon.
- Evening: Mostly clear, with a low around 40°F.
With a cooler pattern expected later this week, today is shaping up to be the best bet for enjoying the outdoors.
