Active Weather Alerts

Blizzard Warning
Issued: 6:22 PM Feb. 22, 2026 – National Weather Service
...BLIZZARD WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 6 PM EST MONDAY...

* WHAT...Blizzard conditions. Additional snow accumulations between
17 and 22 inches. Winds gusting as high as 50 mph.

* WHERE...A portion of northeast New Jersey.

* WHEN...Until 6 PM EST Monday.

* IMPACTS...Visibilities may drop below 1/4 mile due to falling and
blowing snow. Whiteout conditions are expected and will make
travel treacherous and potentially life-threatening. The strong
winds and weight of snow on tree limbs may down power lines and
could cause sporadic power outages. Travel could be very difficult
to impossible. Areas of blowing snow could significantly reduce
visibility. The hazardous conditions will impact the Monday
morning and evening commutes.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Heaviest snow and strongest winds are
expected tonight into Monday.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Travel should be restricted to emergencies only. If you must travel,
have a winter survival kit with you. If you get stranded, stay with
your vehicle. Check local Department of Transportation information
services for the latest road conditions.

A Blizzard Warning means severe winter weather conditions are
expected or occurring. Falling and blowing snow with strong winds
are likely. This will lead to whiteout conditions, making travel
extremely dangerous. Do not travel. If you must travel, have a
winter survival kit with you. If you get stranded, stay in your
vehicle.

Coastal Flood Warning
Issued: 7:44 PM Feb. 21, 2026 – National Weather Service
...COASTAL FLOOD WARNING IN EFFECT FROM 10 PM SUNDAY TO 2 AM EST
MONDAY...

* WHAT...1 to 2 ft of inundation above ground level likely in
vulnerable areas near the waterfront and shoreline.

* WHERE...In New Jersey, Hudson, Eastern Bergen, Eastern Essex
and Eastern Union Counties. In New York, New York (Manhattan),
Richmond (Staten Island), Kings (Brooklyn) and Southern Queens
Counties.

* WHEN...From 10 PM Sunday to 2 AM EST Monday.

* IMPACTS...Widespread minor to locally moderate coastal flooding
is expected in the most vulnerable locations near the waterfront
and shoreline. Expect around 1 to 2 ft of inundation above
ground level in low lying, vulnerable areas. Some roads and low
lying property including parking lots, parks, lawns and
homes/businesses with basements near the waterfront will
experience shallow flooding.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...This water level forecast will be highly
dependent on timing of windshift from northeast to north storm
force winds with respect to the time of high tide, and will be
refined over the next 24 hours. Ice cover in the bays and
harbors could exacerbate flooding and cause damage to north to
northeast facing shoreline structures. Additional minor coastal
flooding possible with the Monday afternoon high tide.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Take the necessary actions to protect flood-prone property. If
travel is required, do not drive around barricades or through
water of unknown depth.

Time of high total tides are approximate to the nearest hour.
