The Rutgers New Jersey Weather Network (NJWxNet) serves as a comprehensive information resource for NJ weather and climate monitoring, weather forecasting, and weather/climate-related decision making. It is one of the densest mesonets in the nation, here in the most densely populated state. At the NJSCO, raw data are processed into a common database, with data and derived products made available in colorful maps, graphs, and tables via the NJWxNet website (njweather.org) within minutes of the observation.
The 70 stations operated by the NJSCO constitute the backbone of the NJWxNet. These high-quality stations are polled every 5 minutes, providing near real-time monitoring of temperature, precipitation, wind, and other weather conditions across NJ. Observations are also made available from ASOS (National Weather Service), RWIS (NJ DOT), RAWS, and USGS networks.
