The National Weather Service (NWS) is conducting ground surveys in New Jersey to assess damage caused by two tornadoes that touched down during Tuesday's severe storms.
The areas under investigation include Parsippany-Troy Hills in Morris County and Stanhope in Sussex County.

Impact & Risks

The tornadoes caused significant damage in parts of New Jersey, particularly in Morris and Sussex counties. Residents in these areas may face disruptions due to property damage and localized flooding. While no injuries have been reported, the storms posed a serious risk to life and property, especially during the height of the tornado warnings. Cape May experienced less severe impacts, as the suspected tornado dissipated shortly after making landfall.
