More Thunderstorms Loom Over Jersey City and Hoboken Tuesday

Tuesday’s Forecast Brings Showers, Possible Thunderstorms and a Wet Night for Hudson County

The National Weather Service warns of showers from late morning into the afternoon on Tuesday, with thunderstorms likely after 2 p.m. and another round possible Wednesday.

According to the National Weather Service, the skies over Jersey City and Hoboken are set to open up on Tuesday, July 21. Expect a chance of showers starting around 11 a.m. and lasting until about 2 p.m. It’s not just light rain, though—meteorologists are talking about roughly half an inch of precipitation during the daytime.

After the afternoon lull, the forecast flips. Thunderstorms could kick in after 2 p.m., and by nightfall the rain may add another three‑quarters of an inch. In other words, a wet, potentially slippery Tuesday night is on the cards.

And the story doesn’t end there. Looking ahead to Wednesday, the NWS is already flagging another chance of thunderstorms, this time in the afternoon. Residents should keep an eye on the sky and be ready for sudden downpours.

Hudson County officials have issued a flash‑flood warning, meaning that any heavy, fast‑moving rain could quickly overwhelm drainage systems. If you’re heading out, consider packing an umbrella, checking the latest radar on AccuWeather, and maybe allowing extra time for travel.

As always with weather, things can shift fast. The best rule of thumb? Stay tuned to live updates from the National Weather Service or local stations, especially if you have plans that depend on clear skies.
