Tropical Storms Marco, Laura No Threat Here, Metro Area Weather Expert Says
New Jersey, New York and Connecticut "need not worry" that two tropical storms headed toward the Gulf Coast will ever make their way here, a local weather expert said Saturday.

On Saturday, “it’s going to be teens and 20s just about everywhere,” he said. Predictions of snow for the tri-state area this weekend are “a big yawn,” Cioffi said. It’s the approaching cold front that should concern people, he said. “It would …
