And plus scan the QR code right there for more episodes, videos and photos. All right, we're getting another check of the weather with storm watch team. Meteorologist Alan Nos and Alan today is cold. It's going to warm up. But then also we're going to have a storm. When is all this happening, right. So the warm up is going to happen starting Friday, Friday and Saturday will start warming up. And then Sunday, all that warm air, it's going to be a clash between the warmth and the December cold, heavy rain is looking likely that's I think one of our biggest impacts when it comes to Sunday again. Keep in mind today, it's still Wednesday. We have several days to track the storm. But what we know so far is that there could be a possibility of flooding conditions. This is going to be for a later Sunday evening into Sunday night. On top of that, imagine it's not just rain, it's a windswept rain, wind swept thunderstorms. In fact, wind gusts could easily be over 40 MPH, especially if you're east of night five east of the Hutch where you're closer to the water along country club throgs neck locust point. These areas could see wind gusts over 50 MPH. Of course, the exact details, we're going to be fine tuning over the next couple of days including the big temperature drop that follows the storm on Monday. So you're going to have to just stay tuned with us over the next couple of days. Hope will also have an update in the evening. So you definitely want to stay tuned for that again. This pattern, it's ripe for producing a big time storm Sunday. Out ahead of the storm again, we're going to get that warm flow from Florida, bringing up sub temperatures that are going to be near 60 degrees on Saturday. But as the storm approaches Sunday, it's going to pick up not just the warmth but the moisture, a tropical connection, in fact, and what that's going to do is produce the threat of some heavy rain, especially Sunday evening and Sunday night. In the meantime, though, it's just cold, it's December cold. In fact, out the door tomorrow morning, you're definitely going to want that coffee in hand warming you up or of course, those mittens we're going to see 28 for North Bay Chester, 29 Mott Haven, 30 for City Island and a little bit better of a chance for a couple of these festive flakes. Our latest feature cast, in fact, actually showing a whole snow shower might be falling at a decent clip at around lunchtime. This is at 1230. So 37 Park Chester don't expect it to stick, but it'll look a little bit like a snow globe for just a few minutes there, Thursday afternoon and then it's just going to stay cold as we usher in Hanukkah tomorrow night, around 35 degrees when the sun goes down. And then of course, the warm up begins Friday, Saturday near 60 Sunday, hey, could make a run at 70. But with those thunderstorms, it's not a day that you want to be outside. It's a roller coaster. At least for the start of Hanukkah. We have good weather. So that's something to look forward to. But, wow, Sunday. Yeah, you'll be watching second half. All right, Alan, thank you. Well, Janice.

Consul general of Italy given tour of Bronx's own Little Italy

RTBXBKBPBXLittleItalyTourJJoseph8pm

October is Italian American Heritage Month. And before it comes to an end, it wouldn't be complete without a visit from one very special guest. Yeah. News Twelve's Julia Joseph took a stroll around Little Italy today, right in the Bronx with Fabrizio Di Micelli for a afternoon full of tradition. What's there to do when the Consul General of Italy makes his first official visit to the Bronx. A tour of Little Italy will do alongside Bronx borough President Vanessa Gibson, Fabrizio de Miel got the ultimate taste of the Bronx. Today. It started with a history lesson at Our Lady of Mount Carmel. All about the Italians who immigrated to the neighborhood back in the early 19 hundreds. And then the food tour began a stop at Borgo Gio's pastry shop where BP Gibson picked out her Halloween cookie. Everything is good here. It's beautiful pastries and just really a representation of the Italian American community. And that's what we're so proud of. Then over to Mario's the oldest restaurant in the Bronx and of course, Ivana's Pizzeria where de M Kelly answered some tough questions. How does this slice of pizza in the Bronx compare to a slice in Palermo. This is the same tradition. It's quite thick Neapolitan tradition. In the North. You have it very thin, but the pizza is not all. Of course, we had to make a stop at Mike's Deli de M got a sample of all the Italian goods sold here since the forties. Now, Italy might be far away. But David Greco tells me one of Italy's most prized ingredients was perfected right here in the Bronx. The mozzarella here in the Bronx is the best because the water in the Bronx is the best. And why is the water in the Bronx the best? Because it's the first stop from the Catskills and there's no fluorides and minerals and years and years after the big Italian migration to the Bronx de Mili says little Italy is the place where tradition is promised to remain. This is by far now, the oldest real Italian community in New York City because uh legal in Mulberry Street has disappeared. But here they are sticking to the old shops in the Belmont section of the Bronx Julia Joseph News. 12.
