The climate of New Jersey (United
States of America)
The state of New Jersey is located in the northeastern part of the
United States. New Jersey has the highest population density of all
states. This is mainly caused by the city of Newark which is almost
completely conjoined to the city of New York in the northeast. Several
other cities have almost completely become conjoined to Philadelphia
which is located in Pennsylvania. An example of this is the city of
Camden which is separated from Philadelphia by the Delaware River. New
Jersey has a warm maritime climate with warm and fairly wet summers
and cool winters. Precipitation falls all year round with a peak in
August. Fall is the driest period. Because of the influence of the
Atlantic Ocean the cities along the coast get fewer snowy days than
those in the interior. During the summer an ocean breeze tempers the
heat in cities along the coast, such as Atlantic City. In the interior
temperatures may rise above 30 degrees Celsius (86 degrees Fahrenheit)
during the summer. Along the coast temperatures are a few degrees
lower.
