Harrison (NJ) has its own private weather station.  Since 1982, Anthony (Tony) Mondaro has been forecasting the weather.  His forecasts are known for their accuracy and detail.  Tony Mondaro takes his weather forecasting job very seriously.  Mondaro is not a big of hyping the weather.  He believes that hyping the weather can lead to residents of the metropolitan area not taking weather reports seriously.  Mondaro prefers to rely on data to forecast the weather.  He also prefaces his long-range weather forecasts indicating several possible scenarios depending on which track a particular storm could take.  As the storm gets closer, Mondaro updates the forecast with very accurate precision.  Mondaro’s weather station is called the Harrison Weather Center.
