The entire state of NJ is experiencing moderate drought in the latest drought monitor update. I’ve never seen the entire map get a single designation

SCOTUS has denied a last ditch appeal by about 30 NJ towns to block the implementation of the state’s affordable housing mandate. Here’s the Montvale mayor, which was the lead town

Here’s a township statement confirming the news, with “profound disappointment” “Let us be clear: Roxbury Township will not passively accept this outcome. The Township Council and our legal team have been preparing to pursue all available legal remedies.”

Check out this map too from the NWS Mt. Holly office If your car is in a low-lying spot, you should move it before its too late. And if you have to drive later today, remember do not drive through water. NJ has already declared a state of emergency for all counties

Heads up for anyone going down the Shore today or in the near future — Island Beach State Park (NJ’s second-most attended state park) is closed indefinitely for a sewage problem. Brutal timing coming on the holiday weekend

A small thing but looks like amid turmoil in Washington, FEMA Region 2 is cancelling public education webinars that are meant to help the public be prepared for future disasters. An email the region just sent out listing cancelled webinars this month

Today @govmurphy.bsky.social will be gathered with state forest fire officials in the Pinelands to talk about prep for the spring peak fire season. Meanwhile, all of NJ remains under some level of drought, with all of South Jersey and Central Jersey under Extreme or Severe drought levels

And a response from Atlantic Shores CEO Joris Veldhoven. Atlantic Shores South is the only wind project off the Shore to have gotten its federal permits, but that hasn’t stopped the setbacks (Shell withdrawal last week, today’s BPU decision)

More bad news for offshore wind in NJ today. The state is choosing not to make an award to any projects who bid during the most recent solicitation

NJ fish and wildlife is now warning hunters to be aware of possible bird flu in the state’s wild birds. Preliminary testing has found H5N1 in 7 snow geese, 2 Canada geese and 2 hawks in North Jersey. No human cases, or cases in farm poultry or cattle, have been reported in the state

End of year work for @govmurphy.bsky.social, signing a bill to reschedule this summer's primary from June 3 to June 10, to avoid conflict with Shavout. Also signs the bill allowing public notices to be published online instead of just in print temporarily. Star-Ledger & others stop print in Feb

A little bit of improvement today for the NJ drought monitor. The area of extreme drought is slightly smaller, but still covers roughly half the state. Nice upgrades in North Jersey, where some areas have returned to moderate drought.

Drought monitor update is out a day early this week for Thanksgiving. No change across NJ despite some rain in recent days. Soaker expected tomorrow is definitely welcome!

Took Scotty to the Batsto Village section of Wharton today. Very neat to see how things are looking a couple years removed from the big Mullica River Fire.

Lunchtime check in on this week’s drought monitor update. Despite the nice rain overnight and through today, the area of extreme drought (red) expands to ~50% of the state, pretty much all of South Jersey. The rest is still severe drought (orange) #njwx
