Tropical Storm Andrea Remnants Expected Through Region Friday

New Jersey could see the effects of a heavy storm this weekend as meteorologists say Tropical Storm Andrea "will slide through the region" on Friday, according to the National Weather Service.

So-called hazardous weather is expected to begin on Friday and last through Saturday with the potential for "very heavy rainfall," the NWS reported.

"Extensive tropical moisture associated with these systems could result in heavy rainfall and urban and small stream flooding from Friday into Saturday morning," the NWS website said.

Between 2 inches and 4 inches of rain were predicted, as well as high winds.

"The strongest winds associated with Andrea are forecast to remain offshore," the NWS said. "And coastal flooding is not anticipated at this time."

A hazardous weather advisory is in effect for nearly all northern New Jersey counties, including Morris, Bergen, Essex, Passaic, Sussex, Warren and Somerset.
