GOOD FRIDAY MORNING… It's windy. It's wet. It's warm. And this morning's worst weather is coming up. A squall line is expected to roll across NJ around 4am-8am. That will produce one last burst of rain. And likely the biggest wind gusts of the day, with 50+ mph is possible. pic.twitter.com/gkqVPud9my
