N.J. weather: Which towns got the heaviest rain from the latest storm? Early rainfall totals in all 21 counties.
A car drives through flooding caused by a strong storm on Long Beach Blvd in Long Beach Township on Wednesday, January 10, 2024.
Another week, another soaker for New Jersey. On Tuesday, the skies opened up once again as a powerful storm swept across the state, dumping heavy rain and whipping up wind gusts as strong as 65 to 70 mph.
By the time Wednesday morning arrived, some light rain lingered, but many towns had already picked up as much as 3 to 4 inches of water — adding to the misery of residents living near over-swollen rivers, streams and creeks.
Making matters worse, downed trees and wires triggered more than 120,000 power outages across the state Tuesday night. That number dipped to 60,000 outages as of Wednesday morning.
