Into shopping? Want to see a show? Here's what South Jersey has to offer this weekend
Well, South Jersey, after weekends of stormy forecasts and unwelcomed summer showers, it looks like consistent clear skies are still something to be dreamt of.
Spotty showers and chances of thunderstorms can be expected throughout the weekend, mostly in the afternoons and late evenings with temperatures ranging from the mid 70s - high 80s depending on location.
The good news?
There's always fun to be had in South Jersey.
