July 27-28, 1997:
Fort Collins, CO, was inundated by a flood that claimed five lives. This event inspired the creation of CoCoRaHS (Community Collaborative Rain, Hail and Snow Network), an international network of volunteers who monitor daily precipitation totals.

💧Take five-minute showers
💧Only run a load of laundry or dishes when full
💧Turn off the water when brushing teeth
💧Install low-flow shower-heads, faucets, and toilets
Thank you for your help – every drop counts!

At the time Georgetown, DE reached its record high of 85° at 2:08 PM Sunday afternoon, it was 43° at the @NJClimate mesonet station at High Point Monument, NJ. This made the Sussex Index (the difference between the two) 42°! The Sussex Index will be lower on Monday. #DEwx #NJwx

12 years ago today we were getting ready for one of the worst blizzards New Jersey ever experienced. There were pockets of snowfall over 30" along the shore, with widespread reports of 18"+ throughout the state. Thanks @NJClimate for the map. @NWS_MountHolly wanna do it again?

Do you wonder how climate change affects snowfall? Listen to what Dave Robinson, #Rutgers climate expert, and head of the Rutgers Global Snow Lab, has to say about snow cover dynamics. #EOAS @NJClimate @ACPressMartucci ow.ly/rVFw50LZv28

The latest Drought Monitor has been released. Parts of NJ and DE are now in a D1 (Moderate Drought) zone. Fortunately, some of these areas received rain last night. More widespread showers and storms are expected for Fri, which should provide some relief. #NJwx #DEwx #PAwx #MDwx

🔥🥵 To say this weekend's heat will be record breaking is an understatement. Several record daily highs are likely on Saturday and the temps will even challenge some monthly records for May. Here's an updated list of records including the monthly values. #PAwx #NJwx #DEwx #MDwx
