5 Day Forecast: Blizzard First Half of Monday, Brief Cold Spell, Then Light Snow to Begin Milder Wednesday Blizzard begins the week!

Blizzard will be ongoing the first half of Monday. Another snow chance, albeit light, to start Wednesday. A wintry mix could occur at the onset of another round of precipitation Thursday, especially the further north you are.

10:10 p.m. Update.

The intense snow band along and just S&E of I-95 is continuing to move northwest, but is now starting to pivot more south to north like a comma, so it may be reaching its maximum westward extent to some degree. This band is producing at least 2" per hour snowfall rates. #NJWX #WX

This band has put down some very efficient snowfall in SENJ this afternoon and appears to be associated with the power outage uptick in Atlantic City Electric's service territory as the outage locations line up well with where this band has been.

5 p.m. 2/22/2026-

A heavy snow band continues to move north-northwest through the southern half of New Jersey.

5 Day Forecast: Warm Front, Cold Front and Then Winter Storm Potential After a milder week, winter returns.

After a week of "milder" weather, the harsh winter weather is getting ready to return. #NJ #NJWX #WX #Weather

firstwarnnj.com/day-forecast...

1" to 3" High Risk
3" to 6" Moderate Risk
6" to 12" Slight Risk
12"+ Mariginal Risk

#NJ #NJWX #WX #Weather

My initial impression derived from 00z guidance for Sunday/Monday is the chances for 3" to 6" of snow (moderate snowfall) and 6" to 12" of snow (heavy snowfall) have increased, mostly S&E of Philly and Trenton. Overall, guidance is more amplified, snowier.
