Real-time weather, radar, marine forecasts, tides, lightning, NOAA Weather Radio, and NWS alerts for South Jersey and the Atlantic coastal waters.
Welcome to the South Jersey weather center from ACURA. Here, you can check live radar, current conditions, marine forecasts, tides and lightning for Atlantic, Cape May and Southern Ocean counties, all on one page.
Weather matters to every ham. For example, storms can knock out power and phone service, and that is exactly when amateur radio steps in. As a result, many of our members also train as SKYWARN storm spotters. In addition, the club supports the Atlantic County AUXCOMM and SKYWARN practice net every Monday at 8:00 pm Eastern. For more, see our SKYWARN weather page.
Before you head out, check the NWS alerts below. Also, keep a radio tuned to your local NOAA Weather Radio frequency. For official forecasts, you can visit the National Weather Service in Mount Holly.
