    Did you know New Jersey is home to the most floating solar panels in North America? Floating solar panels, sometimes known as floatovoltaics, typically sit on a floating platform kept in place by cables connected to the bottom of a reservoir.

    SPC had upgraded our region to a Slight Risk (2/5) for severe weather. A line of showers with strong to severe wind gusts will move quickly across the region this evening. Little lightning is expected, so don't wait to hear thunder to take shelter if a warning is issued.
