Welcome back. We're checking back in with storm watch team, meteorologist, Alex Calamia, Alex. You were actually saying today is gonna be a little warmer than the last few days. Yeah, it is 56. We love to see that and we've got the sunshine too at least early this morning, but the clouds will thicken a bit. So let's talk about that. Um We definitely are expecting fifties, which is beautiful all afternoon. Uh But then we've got to talk about the elephant in the room which is Sunday in the morning. This time tomorrow we have drizzle, very light winds. Not a big problem. As far as that goes early in the morning. Steady rain though develops throughout the later half of the afternoon. Dinner time could be a wash and the evening will also come with really gusty wind that could reach 40 MPH. So, so let's just take a screenshot of this. Just enjoy your Saturday. Enjoy even Sunday morning. We don't have any huge problems. Highs should reach Loga mid fifties because of that south breeze. Places like Marine Park, Coney Island rockaways. You're all looking a little bit cooler than just a little inland Bushwick in the mid fifties tonight, forties, a little bit of fog. It looks good though. We're dry for dinner time and we're dry even very early Sunday morning. But around this time tomorrow, we will see a few quick little spritzes and that will continue until lunch. So the first half of Sunday is not a total washout, but you should have the umbrella all day. Sunday. The wind is going to pick up and temperatures actually continue to climb after the sun sets. We probably don't hit 60 until 67 o'clock at night, which is just ridiculous. And obviously that does come with some problems because all of that air is literally fueling these storms. Now, we're not necessarily listening to thunder with this, but it will be lots of heavy rain, gusty wind through, I would say about dinner all the way to bedtime and even after midnight, look at some of this wind gusts at midnight. We're near 30 to 40 mile per hour. Gusts right along the Atlantic communities there. So Sheeps head bay could see 40 mile per hour gusts JFK. If you know anybody coming in from a flight, that's gonna be a problem Sunday evening, Monday morning commute. It is breezy but it is dry so no problems for a Monday morning commute. Latest model guidance showing possibly 2 to 3 inches of rain. I do think some of that's a little over exaggerated. Another model showing still two inches of rain. So definitely rain is the name of the game. We're gonna have plenty of it. And unfortunately, that could cause some localized flooding. It is dry though for the whole work week.

As well. So what's the timeline looking? We're gonna be seeing that rain move in for the afternoon and evening, gusty winds as well as strong thunderstorms are possible overnight, Sunday into Monday. And then as we go into your afternoon on Monday, things are gonna be drier but still real breezy as well. So that's what we're looking at today. If you have to do anything outside is the day to do it. High temperature is going to be in the low fifties across Western Connecticut, mostly cloudy to partly sunny sky. So definitely, if you have to travel, do anything outside, definitely the day to do it is today because all this rain coming in from Ohio and West Virginia is gonna be pushing on into us here in Western Connecticut as we go into the rest of the weekend. So be prepared could see anywhere from 2 to 3 plus inches of rain across the region heavy at times as well with those gusty winds up to 30 to 50 MPH, especially along the coast. So today it is going to be nice. South temperatures are gonna be rising up into the fifties later on with a mix of clouds and sunshine. Then as we fast forward to the morning, more clouds and fog rain starts in the afternoon, heaviest from dinner time into the overnight hours. So we'll be keeping our eyes on that heavy rain lasting into Monday morning with highs today, around 50 degrees 60 on Sunday. And then we are going to be seeing those temperatures drop into the forties as we go into the rest of the week. That is a look at your hyper local forecast.

HVFORECAST

We're on storm watch for tomorrow, especially in the afternoon and the evening, we have two problems, heavy rain and gusty winds. There could be a few spots that briefly see 40 to 45 mile per hour winds which would bring the power out in a few neighborhoods mostly toward the lower Hudson Valley, Westchester County. That could be a problem and then also some localized flooding Sunday afternoon and especially in the overnight hours. So if you are planning on dinner time plans for Sunday, that will be a problem today, really pleasant at 10 o'clock or already close to 50 in Westchester County. And then we're in the mid fifties all afternoon. So it's actually a bit warmer than it was yesterday, but also a little bit on the cloudy side. If you have dinner plans at eight o'clock tonight, 36 in Newburgh, 3035 degrees in Middletown. So a little bit cool, but it warms up by Sunday morning. You're actually warmer in the morning time than you are in the evening tonight. We're expecting close to 40 for the upper Hudson Valley mid forties for the lower Hudson Valley temperature is definitely not the issue here. We will see some stray showers first thing in the morning tomorrow, but it becomes warm, widespread guaranteed in the afternoon. So you see that chance after brunch time really goes up quite a bit and there will be some heavy rain in the mix as well as well as wind. Now again, the wind is not a problem for the first half of Sunday, 2 p.m. Still not seeing any major wind, but there will be steady rain. Four o'clock, really steady rain here, it's a wash at this point, but the wind isn't a huge problem. 6 p.m. Winds starting to pick up a little bit. But look at this now, we're talking 20 to 30 mile per hour winds at nine o'clock. So some power outages are make sure you have a backup alarm clock. Sunday night for Monday mornings, wake up because look at the wind up to 30 MPH, that's kind of hard to sleep through. And although it's drying out on Monday with that wind shifting to the northwest, it is going to be still quite breezy on Monday. So a slight risk for scattered flash flooding. You're gonna want to watch out for underpasses roads, small streams and drains as well with all those leaves out there that could kind of clog up too. The rest of the week looks pretty quiet and dry. Once we get through Monday morning

All right, Alex call me here to tell us today is the day to everything. Yeah, because of the rain coming later on in the weekend. Enjoy today. Absolutely. I mean, you see the radars clear today's 56 peaks of sun, definitely some generous cloud cover, but 60 on Sunday is not going to feel so good. It's a soaker. We've got a train of rain coming in from the Gulf of Mexico and that's going to bring in warm air. Yes, but it's gonna bring a lot of wind too. And so we have two threats, flooding and wind tomorrow today. Come on. This is fantastic. We're in the thirties now with a little bit of frost but mid forties by 9 a.m. we're hitting 50 way before brunch time and we're in the fifties all day Sunday morning. Little different feel it's warmer but it's cloudy with a stray shower at 9 a.m. A big rain risk for brunch lunch plans on Sunday afternoon. We may see a few soakers and then plenty of rain. 234 o'clock in the afternoon. Look at this just on and off downpours all day. The wind starts to pick up after sunset, seven o'clock at night, it's warmer than the afternoon because the wind is coming in straight from the south 40 mile per hour wind here, this is 11 o'clock at night. Probably the worst of the wind is going to be somewhere between eight o'clock at night. And about five o'clock in the morning, we could see some localized flooding because look at how much rain we end up with 2 to 3 inches across the island. And then also the possibility of some overnight power outages. So you'll want to be prepared for that, maybe strap those Christmas decorations down today.

Right now, let's check in with storm watch team. Meteorologist Scott Skoff. How bad is what's coming our way? It's going to be widespread rain, heavy wind as well as just a lot of icky travel conditions. So if you have to do anything outside today is the day to do it. If you have to travel today is the day to do it because Sunday afternoon and evening, look at this, plenty of heavy rain coming across the region. So we are looking at a lot of rain and wind throughout the afternoon and evening tomorrow and then especially overnight into Monday, that's when we're going to see the worst of it. Luckily most of us are inside at that time. But then into your Monday morning gonna turn real gusty 30 to 45 MPH. Anchor down any of those holiday decorations. Watch out for flooding. Turn around. Don't drown the normal stuff that we deal with these strong coastal systems pushing in. Definitely just got to be safe out there. High temperatures today going to be in the fifties gonna be a beautiful second full day of Hanukkah, third night, later on this evening, it should be a beautiful sunset before the rain comes on. And this is the system that we're looking at coming our way as we are going to see widespread 1 to 3 inches of rain, potentially gusts anywhere from 20 to 40 MPH tomorrow evening into Monday. So definitely looks like some strong winds, but today definitely the day to do it anything really because it's gonna be beautiful. But then as we go into your Monday, we are looking at more rain coming on in starting Sunday morning, a few showers and from lunchtime into the afternoon and evening, real heavy rain coming through. So definitely be safe out there as we are going to be seeing those temperatures drop with that heavy rain and wind Sunday to Monday.
