Jersey Shore residents are getting ready for the spring and summer, but with the nice weather comes the threat of hurricanes. Hurricane season is set to officially begin on June 1st in New Jersey, lasting through the end of November with the peak in early September. This year, forecasters are predicting a potentially longer and rougher season due to warmer temperatures and El Nino conditions. New Jersey may have a 28 percent chance of a named storm hitting the state, with a 9 percent chance of it becoming a major hurricane. While New Jersey’s coastal location usually protects it from direct hits, past events such as Superstorm Sandy serve as a reminder of the potential impacts. Residents are being urged to stay prepared and alert as the 2025 hurricane season approaches.
