And speaking of ice is expected to get colder out there. Meteorologist Michelle Powers joins us now and we are on storm watch. Michelle, what can you tell us? Well, we have a lot more rain before the morning comes and roads are going to be wet. It's going to be sloppy as we start the day. But temperatures are above freezing, we're going to watch them fall throughout the day and heading into Tuesday, any standing water that is left over that could become icy. So plan ahead. Now there could be some minor slowdowns on the roads and as for snow don't get your hopes up. There's a chance as you go up in elevation and throughout parts of the Poconos, that's where really most of this will fall. So the colder air rushes in temperatures are really going to drop as we head into Tuesday morning, we're near freezing. The next couple of mornings will be much colder daytime, highs in the forties and no rain in sight until next weekend.

Welcome back to News 12 of the Bronx for local matters. I'm Phil Tate. We are on Storm March tonight. We have Storm March team, meteorologist Ho oa Hope. I mean, this second wave of wet weather is really kicking up, but tell us how is this going to really be impacting our morning commute? Yeah, you know, you know, the rain is going to continue into the morning commute. So this is just something that we have to deal with and just prepare for and we're not just dealing with the rain. We're also dealing with a strong two damaging winds, 40 to 50 MPH and that can cause some power outages across portions of our area. Crashing. Temperatures will be in the sixties at midnight, crashing to the forties by Monday morning. And then we have some travel troubles, especially for your morning commute, standing water and any wind damage can reduce visibility and also just cause some hazardous conditions on area roadways. So let's have it out on your future cast overnight. We're still dealing with the periods heavy rain and some strong gusts 3545 MPH and even through four or five o'clock in the morning, temperatures will be in the mid forties and we're dealing with that steady rainfall, maybe even a few isolated downpours to at least 7 a.m. Eight AM. The rain is lighter and then we're seeing some clearing skies by the afternoon, 1212 30. But temperatures will be in the mid forties. The winds will be persistent throughout the day. That is gonna feel like temperatures to be in the mid to upper 30. So that's a real shock in the system, especially coming off of a 60 degree day. So Monday night into your Tuesday morning, it is expected to feel like the twenties because of those winds. So back to our winds, the winds will be out of the northwest. So now it's bringing in that cooler pocket of air 5 a.m. 2325 MPH and we're seeing it in that ballpark for the majority of the day, even reaching near 30 at times and that is going to take us into your two morning. So this is what you need to prepare for for Tuesday morning. Again, temperatures will be in the twenties to start feeling like the mid to upper thirties during the afternoon. But on the plus side, at least it's dry. We're not dealing with any wet weather for the next several days. So that's something that we can finally look forward to. So the storm watch continues for the first half of your morning commute, drying out by the afternoon, temperatures will be in the mid forties feeling like the thirties even colder by Tuesday. Let's just get through this together.

Westchester

WC | Weather

HVFORECAST

We are of course on storm watch for this storm right now bearing down on Westchester and the Hudson Valley meteorologist Julian C Wright is here. So Julian, a lot of people that we heard from in Emily's story concern about their Monday morning commute. Absolutely. And they should be because we are going to be expecting this rain just to continue to be heavy throughout the next several hours. But even though a weekend, we are still going to be dealing with rain by the time we wake up for tomorrow morning as well, which is going to continue that flood issue for us. We're getting into what we have for our flood advisor. Just a reminder this watch is going to be in effect. We don't have a flood advisory, but we have a flood watch in effect until we get into about 1 p.m. for our Monday. Until then we're gonna be dealing with periods of heavy rainfall, consistent rain as well. But behind the rain, we're also gonna be monitoring those winds as of right now. Just a few areas have been hitting into gusting winds that are really clocking into the 30 to about 37 MPH range as for Poughkeepsie and over towards White Plains, but we are still seeing many areas towards the eastern side after getting hit with those stronger winds as we continue throughout the overnight. So a quick look at just exactly what we're gonna be expecting from tonight into our Monday morning. We're gonna be looking at street flooding to be possible because of the heavy rainfall and those high rainfall rates per hour, which could be between a half to three quarters of an inch of rainfall, which again could be leading to flooding for many of us. 1 to 2 inches of rain is gonna be likely for us across the lower Hudson Valley. But then again, behind it is going to be the windy conditions, isolated. Power outages are going to be possible as gusts can be from 30 to 40 MPH and we could see potentially some old trees being down because of those strong winds. So here's what we got going on for our radars right now, still monitoring some heavier downpours, especially across much of Dutchess in Ulster County and even for Putnam and going into Rockland, Westchester and even for Orange County. So pretty much everywhere is starting to see a bit of that heavier rainfall, which we're starting to see those totals even picking up a bit more as well, especially towards southern parts of Orange County, almost an inch and a half of rainfall. So really over the last two hours, we've almost seen a little bit more than the half of an inch of rain that has fallen for us. And just about two hours it goes to show you just how hard or heavy that rain has been over the last while. But again, once we get into the rest of tonight's, we're looking for our heaviest band of rain to be within the next couple of hours past midnight, the rain will start to phase out but some periods of heavy rain mainly to the east is gonna be possible right behind it. I'm gonna be seeing a cold front. That's right on your screen. We will be seeing a bit of a wintry mix, potentially even some snow flakes for some areas, especially north of Westchester and for Rockland counties. Now, it's not looking to accumulate much in terms of snow, but rain accumulations could still be about an inch close to two inches. Once everything's all said and done in regards to wind speeds, it's not just tonight, but heading into Monday afternoon, we're still gonna be dealing with some gusty winds and breezy conditions throughout our Monday. So it's not gonna fully improve, but at least it's not gonna be heavy rainfall for our Monday afternoon. Once we're done with Monday, smooth sailing with cold and sunny conditions.

LIFORECAST

A quick update on our storm issues across Long Island. So this is what's happening as of right now. We're still dealing with that system that's been bringing an abundance of rain and now it is the winds that is going to be the double whammy or even the second issue for us as we continue throughout the rest of our Sunday nights into our Monday morning. Now, a lot of that heavy rainfall has been moving quickly, but now it's impacting much more of Suffolk County over towards Port Jefferson and over towards Islip and our Twin Forks areas as well. We are still potentially gonna be looking at more rounds of heavy rainfall to be impacting Nassau County in the western end of Suffolk County as we get into the rest of tonight. So again, just make sure that you, if you are gonna be out for tonight or even heading into tomorrow morning, you're planning ahead because things are gonna get a bit not only wet but still gonna be a bit messy as we start off our Monday morning. So make sure you plan ahead and leave a bit early if you need to. Now for western side of Suffolk County and for Nassau County, we do have a flooded are in effect until we get into just a few minutes past midnight for us, for tonight. But if we continue to see the heavy rainfall, we could see that extended as a possibility. So it's one thing where we are going to be monitoring here at the storm watch news, 12 weather team. But until then, here's also what we're looking at as of right now. So wind speeds are really starting to pick up, especially along the South shore, near 40 MPH wind gusts as of right now. And then the rain again, we're gonna be looking at another potential round of heavy rainfall for the next several hours going into our early Monday morning, not until about close to sunrise when we start to see that rain really lose its intensity and just become light rainfall going into our Monday morning. So once we're heading out, it's still gonna be a bit of the wet side for us, but still be mindful of wet roads, flooded areas as well because even for earlier, for today, as if you were going to be traveling on the lie, it's still gonna be a bit of a mess because we're not gonna be looking at this rain to really end for us until we toward late Monday morning and early afternoon. But right behind it, we're still gonna be dealing with some windy conditions. So overnight, we could be seeing again wind speeds, clocking from 42 near 60 MPH for some areas, mainly along the South shore, the northern shore areas. We are gonna be seeing the winds not being as strong, but still could be a bit of an issue, especially as we get into our Monday afternoon where we are anticipating a once again windy day for our Monday. So taking a look at how much rain we could be seeing from the rest of this event. Nassau County. Not as much unless it's closer towards the Suffolk County area, uh, near Hicksville, which would be close to about two inches. But overall, we could still see three inches of rainfall for some areas as well. A quick look at our 10 day forecast. Once we're done with our storm watch for Monday morning, we're looking at smooth sailing for the next couple of days.

And we're taking another look at the forecast. Morning, temperatures are going to be warm, but temps will fall throughout the day and there's still rain out there for that morning commute. So there could be a couple of issues on the roads plan accordingly. Travel could be a little disrupted by that rain. Now, there will be some snow falling mainly north, but that's going to be very brief and it doesn't look like we'll see much of an accumulation, but either way it's going to be damp out for the morning commute, the afternoon will be and colder. So make sure you have something waterproof for the morning, grab a rain jacket, don't wear the good shoes tomorrow, it's going to be very wet out, but later it up underneath because temperatures will be colder. S ra are still looking pretty messy across the area. And like I mentioned in terms of snow, there's not going to be very much but just parts of northern Litchfield County and as you go up in elevation, so this upcoming week as a whole is going to be a lot drier than what we're seeing right now. And those temperatures are in the forties.

Fitness in Four: Exercises designed to tone and shape your glutes

Welcome back to be. Well, time now for our fitness in four, they're the largest muscles in our body. Do you know what I'm talking about? They help us stand, sit and even climb stairs. Yes, I'm talking about the gluteus Maximus. Yes, they have been called the Booty burn exercise is designed to tone and shape your glute. So I recently met with Nike global trainer, Tara Nicholas who showed simple glute exercises anyone can do at home known for her workout series with Megan the stallion. We're now gonna get fit right now. You're a Nike Global ambassador and you're giving us all the help that we need for this fitness in four. So we've got some standing abs. What are we gonna do, Tara? Alright. I'm super excited about it. So for our first exercise, I like to give a warm up drill because you know, I never know where all coming from in life. So nice wide stance. It's gonna be a fix feet, lateral arm. So your feet stay where they are, you're gonna bend on one side, you're gonna straighten, bend on the other side and you're gonna feel that in like your inner thigh area already starting to light up the glutes, you know, lubricate everything. And I also think of it as like reality starting to set in that like you've decided to move your body, you know, are activating everything. So do you wanna do this for time or do I wanna do a certain amount of it? So we're gonna count. So we're gonna do 12 all the way to 10. Ok, great. Yeah, once I do 10 of these and I feel like, OK, everything starts. Exactly. We're gonna move on. All right. All right. Next thing. So now your feet are just outside of your hips for both of you need a little more space for the spot and you're gonna come down, you're gonna pulse this, we're gonna count 15 looks. So I wanna put my, my weight into the heel and my foot. Right. Exactly. And talk to me about the knee because I feel like a lot of people have knees way too forward. Exactly. So especially those of us who feel a little sensitive here, you can come up a little higher, but for sure you're pressing your own hips back, right? And you wanna remember that feeling of this creasing feeling because we wanna keep using out throughout the workout. You can even feel your core start to engage shoulders down and breathe. I kind of think of like when you go to that parent teacher conference in the first grade, they make you sit in that little tiny chair like that's what I'm looking at for, you know. Exactly. And keep that in your mind because we're gonna use it again slightly differently. So, for the next exercise, we have a single leg dead lift. So that position we started with, at the beginning, that's your hinge. We're really gonna hinge now. So your feet are just under your hips, uh, hands on your hips and then from here you're gonna bring your right ball of your foot is gonna replace your heels. So it's just one little step back. And then I feel like I'm like closing the door behind me with my butt. Change my mind. Stand up. That's your like, Micro Ben in the standing leg. Stand up. If you've done this before, if this is going well, you feel good. You can take your foot off the ground. Hopefully, I don't tip over today and stand up. Exactly. That looks great. Hey, come on down and I'm like, and I wanna do how many? So now we're gonna do 10 on the left. 10 on the right. So to recap that first exercise, we did 10, that second exercise, we did 15 and then the third exercise so far dead lift. We do 10 on the right and then 10 on the left and then our grand finale. Here we go. We have our modified popcorn squat. You get low, you're gonna go out out in, in you're gonna count to 10. And if you feel fancy you will jump, jump. I always feel OK, this is better than s all right. And it's fun. And after you do those 10, you'll stand up, you shake it out and you repeat, you do it 2 to 4 times. You decide. Ok, let's go. I love it. Thank you so much. Great. Thank you. There you go. They go. I feel the burn baby. I love it. And if you love any workout that you're doing, we want to know about it. So scan the QR code, let us know. So she.
