Traffic light at South & Main is malfunctioning, according to a reader– avoid the intersection for now. Wonder if it has anything to do with last week’s electrical fire.

While high pressure will remain in control over the region for one more day with hot temperatures, the main story is clearing the progression of powerful Hurricane Earl.
Hurricane Earl is moving to the north-northwest at 18 mph as of 8 AM. Earl is expected to continue to move to the north-northwest through this afternoon, [...]
High pressure once again produced an excellent day of weather, albeit hot but at least dry. Temperatures rose into the upper 80's to mid 90's once again while humidity increased slightly from the previous few days.
All eyes of course are on Hurricane Earl. The forecast for Hurricane Earl is very complicated but also rather [...]
Freehold Raceway will once again be home to the annual Cane Pace, the first leg in the Harness Racing Triple Crown. Monday's race has a $300,000 purse.
The race, first run in 1955 in Yonkers, New York, was moved to Freehold in 1998. Freehold has the oldest half-mile racetrack in the country, though [...]
The Freehold Regional High School District Board of Education symbolically voted down Assistant Superintendent Donna Evangelista's salary Monday.
The school board voted 4-3 in favor of Evangelista's 2010-11 school year salary, which remained unchanged at $151,556 because the district's central office staff agreed to a wage freeze.
However, because members' votes are weighted differently, the [...]
The epicenter of academic fraud–the Freehold Regional High School District–is at it again. The Board by municipal weighted vote, decided not to hire her. However, the Board secretary refused to disclose the results, which were obtained by APP reporter, Kim Predham. Kim determined by the weight of each vote that the disgraced Ms. (former Dr.) Evangelsita, did not get re-appointed!!!
This woman should have been terminated two years ago when the largest case of academic fraud was discovered, whereby 5 employees obtained and used towards their proffession, unaccredited degrees from online bogus diploma mill Breyer State University.
The monies that these people used in addition to legal fees and security fees, would have staved off many of the kids programs slated for elimination.
This water vapor satellite picture details the entire forecast from now on through Saturday as all the players are now on the "field". As we can see to the left, Hurricane Earl is approaching the North Carolina coastal waters. Hurricane Earl is a powerful category 3 hurricane with sustained winds of 125 mph with tropical [...]

A transit line that could connect Freehold Borough & Township to New York City, Philadelphia, and Trenton is on the move again, according to an article in the News Transcript.
The federal Department of Transportation awarded New Jersey Transit $534,375 to investigate the potential Monmouth-Ocean-Middlesex line, according to the NT.
I hope the only route to be considered is the north-south route, the Freehold-Matawan route. A route that goes any other direction will not have sufficient ridership
Mark, that is not correct. The Matawan would not have as many daily riders as the Jamesburg route. The Red Bank will have the least amount of daily riders.
Freehold native and NBA star JR Smith plead guilty last year to reckless driving following a car accident in which the passenger of the SUV Smith was driving died.
Yesterday, a panel of appellate court judges ruled that Smith's plea could not be used against him in a civil wrongful-death suit brought by the [...]
High pressure over the Northern Mid Atlantic today will produce another day of clear skies and hot temperatures, however the approach of Hurricane Earl to the southeast will lead to a rather stormy end to the week for those along the coast.
High pressure at the surface up to 500 MB will continue to produce [...]

Upwards of 10,000 JCP&L customers could be without power, according to their website. You can keep up with the power outage at the JCP&L Outage Map http://bit.ly/95HkG5
Did you lose power today, Freehold residents? Is it back on [...]
