    A cold front extends through eastern Pennsylvania late this afternoon and will continue to head east during the remainder of the day.

    Showers with some brief winds gusts passed through the New Jersey region earlier today, but the precipitation threat is now is very limited, according to the latest National Weather Service forecast.

    Sunshine is breaking through the clouds in many areas throughout New Jersey, particularly in the central and northern portions of the state. Mainly cloudly skies remain over portions of South Jersey and the Delmarva region. It’s still rather muggy. 

    But much drier air moves in overnight.
