BXFORECAST

All right, let's take a look at our hyper local forecast here tonight. This is me. I just hope right here with us in studio. Hope. I mean, as we sit here, it's a great time. If you got to get out there and do get some shopping done or you know, enjoy some of the holiday activities, but you got to definitely bundle up a little bit. Yeah, you know, today was a very cold day compared to yesterday, we got spoiled with highs in the fifties. Today were back down to the mid forties across the borough. So whether you were in class and Point Fordham or City Island, we saw temperatures near 44 degrees. Now, this is where we're going tomorrow afternoon, the chilly breeze will take us throughout the day. Highs will be in a low for so a few degrees cooler, it will be in seasonally cold. Even through our Thursday lows will be in the twenties and thirties. So this is what you need to prepare for Wednesday night into Thursday morning. Feel like temperatures will be in the twenties and thirties throughout the day on Thursday. But heading into tomorrow morning still very cold start with temperatures in the mid to upper thirties. A mostly cloudy sky, the clouds will really just be sticking around for the majority of the day, not going to experience that sunshine and temperatures will be in the low forties. So again, it is going to feel cooler because of those brisk northerly winds that's going to take us throughout the day. On our Wednesday, we clear out a little bit on Wednesday night, that is going to allow temperatures to fall to near 29 degrees, feeling like the low twenties by Thursday morning. So the heavier coat your entire winter gear will be needed. Now Thursday afternoon can't rule out a few flurries possible that is associated with a Clipper system to our west. Looks like mainly north and west of our areas should see some snow while we may see a rogue flurry. So don't be surprised if you see some of those festive in terms of Friday. Finally turning things around, seeing temperatures climbing into the low fifties, even milder heading into the weekend, the pick of the week will be on Saturday. Wait until you see exclusive 10 day Sunday just start off dry. But this is what we're watching. The storm system will bring us some rain and even some gusty winds, maybe even some embedded thunderstorms when all is said and done. So that's going to be the next day that we need to watch

Alert Center: What New Yorkers have to say about Roe v. Wade draft opinion

JERICHOROEWADE5422NOON

here in the alert center. We are tracking local reaction both online and across the boroughs after protests erupted over the future of abortion rights in our country. Here's what people had to say. A woman should have the choice to do what they want with their body. Women throughout the city now fighting for their rights. After the 100 page draft leak of the Supreme Court's draft opinion on abortion access that would overturn the landmark roe versus wade case. Men up there making decisions for women and they are the ones that are raping and impregnating women as protests erupt throughout the country. Women want more rights, more access to abortion, more freedom, not less. Some say the legality of abortion should be determined by religion. The leaked draft dividing lawmakers as Democrats in the Senate pushed to codify abortion rights, calling out Republicans who support the overturn of Roe vs Wade. They know they're on the wrong side of history, they know they're on the wrong side of where the American people are. They know they'll pay consequences in the 2022 elections. It is a fundamental right and don't get it twisted, even though the United States Supreme Court may get it wrong, politicians now, fearing a ban on abortion will disproportionately affect women across the country. It's not going to fall hardest on well to do women, they can afford to get on a plane and go to another state where abortion is legal. They can afford to leave the country, who this is going to fall hardest on. It's going to be on poor women back here in our borough. Those who support abortion say the reason is very simple. You can't kill babies. We need all our babies. Let my people go. So the big question now is how is this going to affect us right here in new york? Well, we may have an answer because governor Kathy huckle tweeted out just minutes ago, and here's what she said for the millions of people across the country who are worried or scared. No, that new york will always be a place where abortion rights are protected and where abortion is safe and accessible. And we will continue to follow this here very closely in the alert center. In the meantime, dan I will send it back to you.
