Clover Market Forecast – This Sunday!

Weather NJ is proud to provide a special event forecast for the Clover Market in Collingswood NJ this weekend!  Now in it’s 8th year, this award-winning outdoor Market features a carefully curated group of 100+ vendors with antiques, vintage, and finely handcrafted items along with food trucks, live music, free kids crafts, and more. The event pops up this Sunday in the heart of the downtown Collingswood business district for the ONLY New Jersey Market on the schedule for their fall season.

Event Date: Sunday, Oct 8, 10-4 PM, rain or shine.  The event is family and dog-friendly, and free and open to all.

“We have been providing opportunities for talented independent and local artisans and dealers to connect with customers and with each other in a vibrant and friendly marketplace for the last 8 years.  Important to our mission, we also encourage our customers to ‘shop the Market and the town’ to support the local retailers and restaurants in the downtown districts where we operate.  The Market was just named Best Roving Seasonal Market by Main Line Today Magazine (Summer ’17), and a Reader’s Favorite Outdoor Show by Flea Market Style Magazine (Summer ’17), and was just featured in the new Oct issue of Philadelphia Magazine.” ~ Janet Long, Founder

Weather Forecast for Sunday, October 8, 2017

Discussion: A frontal boundary will be going through the area during AM hours. Light rain of nuisance/spotty/pop-up nature is possible through late morning. Skies should then dry and try to clear for afternoon hours with isolated sprinkles possible here and there. Not to worry because Clover Market happens rain or shine and the small amount of possible rain is again, of nuisance type.

Forecast: Temperatures should start off in the mid-to-upper 70s when the market opens at 10AM. Afternoon peak temperatures should have no problem reaching into the low 80s. Skies should be partly-to-mostly cloudy with isolated nuisance rain showers at times. The event is rain or shine so come on out for another great event! (Updated 7:05PM 10/7/2017)
