July 14: NJ Tornado Warning Update

**UPDATED 9:03PM EDT: TORNADO WARNING HAS EXPIRED**

**UPDATED 8:25PM EDT: TORNADO WARNING IN WESTERN CNJ**

Decent storm energy has possibly produced a tornado just NE of Baltimore and is steaming across the Delmarva Peninsula towards southern New Jersey. We’ll have to wait for the NWS to investigate to confirm or rule out but there certainly was rotation detected. I expect this cluster to impact SWNJ momentarily and reach the coast between 8-9PM. Severe thunderstorms can form at any time. The storm energy in general is congealing into a more solid line segment on radar. Storms are already well into NNJ and parts of CNJ. SNJ is basically on deck. Here’s the latest snap shot from our fully interactive radar.

I expect these stormy conditions to last until possibly midnight. Until then heavy downpours, possible hail, damaging winds, and frequent lightning. As always, SENJ will see it last and that could be a hit or fizzle. I’ll be tracking. Tomorrow could be very similar to today. Please be safe and have a great night! JC
