After beginning in May 2018, the Something in the Air podcast comes to an end here. 

Since 1895, January 2024 was the seventh wettest start to the year on record when it came to precipitation. 

That precipitation came as snow, twice, capturing the affection of South Jersey snow lovers. Specifically, the Jan. 19 snow was another "South Jersey Special". 

In the temperature department, temperatures wound up milder, 2.7 degrees above the average.

After a record to near record snowless winter, a "mild or wild" winter gives hope for everyone this 2023-24 season, no matter how you feel about the cold and snow. 

Judah Cohen, Director of Seasonal Forecast for Verisk AER, says either a quiet, warmer than average winter is in store in the Something in the Air podcast. Or, it could be one where the polar vortex and typical El Nino pattern line up just right for a big snow or two.

Inland was cooler than average for the third time in the past four months, something New Jersey State Climatologist Dave Robinson says hasn't happened in a long time. The shore wound up more seasonable, though. 

There was just enough rain to pull the region out of drought but if rain doesn't occur by mid-September, the region should slip back into it, too. If the rain does fall, a good fall foliage should be South Jersey. Meteorologist Joe Martucci discusses that, and more, with Robinson in the August 2023 weather roundup.
