RED BANK: A DASH OF COLOR AND EDGY CHEER

Adding a splash of color to a gray December day, a 12-foot-tall Santa’s elf surveyed Broad Street in Red Bank from the parapet of the Vault Thursday afternoon.

Whatever edgy cheer Santa’s helper might bring will be appreciated, as the coming weekend will be gray and damp, according to the National Weather Service. Check out the extended forecast below. (Photos by John T. Ward. Click to enlarge.)
