to anyone familiar with northbound traffic out of Newark on a Friday

Nevermind.

Of course everything will be screwed up if there is a NYC transit strike or snowstorm...

Your best route home would be NJ Turnpike north to I-95 north, and then Palisades Parkway towards Bear Mountain Bridge. Your worst jams (if any) would be encountered on the lower portion of the parkway.

Thanks CMANDALA, but I've managed to convince my sister to come pick me up. :D
