Such was the case Thursday, as a storm that was predicted to be quite the bear ended up coming through relatively quickly. It did, however, make a lot of noise while it was in town.

The National Weather Service has issued a tornado watch for several New Jersey counties, including Morris, Sussex and Somerest. Also under the watch are portions of Connecticut, Massachusetts, western Maine, New Hampshire, southeast New York, southeast Pennsylvania and Rhode Island.
