😎 Lots of temperature readings in the mid- to high 80s in NJ as of 3 p.m. Wednesday. That's 8° to 10° warmer than average for early June, but far away from record highs. (Map credit: Rutgers NJ Weather Network) #nj #njwx https://t.co/CMHXXpUxLm

☔️ Here’s a look at the highest rainfall totals in NJ during the very soggy month of May. Many places were soaked with more than twice as much rain as they normally get in May, and some came close to tripling their usual monthly rainfall total. #nj #njwx https://t.co/5KpMYI4UOb

🧐 No big surprise, but last month turned out to be among the wettest Mays on record in many areas of New Jersey, as well as eastern PA & NYC. Allentown PA was the city closest to setting a new record, with its 2nd wettest May. AC had its 4th wettest May. #njwx #pawx #nywx https://t.co/8Rs84R4Ydk
