Set on over to storm watch teams ho O se right now as we are making our way towards a interesting week here, weather wise, a little different than we had today. Yeah. You know, today was a beautiful day to go outside and enjoy the milder air temperatures in the low to mid 50 so 54 in Bay Bridge, 53 in Home Crest and 52 in Midwood. So we really got spoiled because our average high is 48 degrees. It is about to start feeling like the forties starting tomorrow. Highs near 45 air mass and we are going to see more clouds and sun. So not going to going to experience that bright beautiful sky Wednesday, even colder. High stopping out near 41 degrees, but at least it's going to remain dry for now. There are some changes in the forecast heading into the weekend. But in the short term, this is what you're waking up to tomorrow morning. 38 degrees, the clouds are moving out of here and it is going to be cold. So that heavy winter coat, you need to dust it off and bring it back out. And keep it around for the next couple of days. Tomorrow's highs will top out in the mid forties across the boughs and we're going to see those clouds continuing to increase throughout the day, still going to remain dry. And even into our Wednesday, that colder air mass is seeping in highs are really struggle to get to near 41 degrees partly sunny sky. And what we're watching on Thursday as we turn into Hanukkah, a Clipper system two hours north will bring some snow showers north and west of our area. We will dry but temperatures will still be very cold. Upper thirty's near 40 degrees. But look where we're going. There is a light at the end of the tunnel as we get into the rest of the month, December 10th to the 16th. It looks like we're trending warmer than normal, but temperatures will even be reaching the low to mid 50 s through the weekend. And I would say the pick of the week will be on Saturday. A blend of sun and clouds go out there. Really enjoy the start of the weekend because look where we're ending some rain and wind return to our area.

I think there are some people awaiting the cold weather. I'm not one of them, but there are people awaiting the cold weather. Hope. And I guess this last couple of days been a little not normal. No, not normal whatsoever. So if you guys are a fan of the cold that is coming our way this week. If you're not a fan of the cold, hopefully you guys got to enjoy the last couple of days, especially today. It was a beautiful day. Highs 53 degrees across the board. Classing point, Fordham City Island. It was a really nice time to really go outside and enjoy the conditions. Now, this is where we're going. Tomorrow's high 45 degrees. That is at least 9 to 10 degrees cooler and we are going to be going to experience more clouds and sun throughout the day. Wednesday feels even colder. Highs near 41 degrees. You're gonna see the blend of sun and clouds, but at least it is going to remain dry. Now, let's take you through the next couple of hours. Some clouds this evening does clear out overnight and this is what you're waking up to tomorrow. Morning, 38 degrees winter out of the west 5 to 10 MPH, it is going to feel colder. So you're definitely going to need to bring up the heavier coat and the winter jacket for the next couple of days. Tomorrow's highs will top out near 4445 degrees, not seeing a lot of sunshine tomorrow. Just during the morning hours, clouds do take over our sky and it is going to remain dry. Now, a Clipper says will remain north and west of our area leading into the start of Hanukkah on Thursday. And that is going to bring some snow showers to our north and west. While here we will just remain dry and cold for our Wednesday high, still in upper thirties, low forties, same situation on our Thursday and then it looks like things finally begin to turn around. We're talking about a big warm up heading our way as we get through the end of the week and even into the weekend.

Fordham alum starts NFL journey

Star college quarterback in the Bronx. Now Fordham's Tim Demora is taking his shot at the highest level of football sports director Pat o'keefe has his story. Tim Demora enjoyed a record setting career during his time as Fordham University's quarterback. It gave the multiple time all American the opportunity to pursue a dream that thousands of young football players have a chance to play in the NFL. That chance begins on Friday when Demora begins rookie mini camp with the Washington Commanders. I think once I get there, it's still kind of surreal putting on the NFL helmet in the jersey, but I think I'm just excited for everything, you know, practice meetings being in the, being in the NFL locker room with those guys just trying to contribute to the team and you know, help a team in any way I can last season. Demora set the Patriot League record with 56 touchdown passes and was named the conference's offensive player of the year for the third consecutive season. He was not selected in last month's draft, but shortly after the draft, Demora signed a free agent contract with Washington. It was kind of just relief. Honestly, because like I said, it was a long weekend of waiting and once he kind of got, got signed there at the end, it was definitely excitement but also relieved to kind of be done with the process of all the, you know, the months of training, all star games, you know, pro day, all the stuff that goes into it. Demora joins his former offensive lineman, Nick Zel of the 49ers, as well as Buccaneers running back, Chase Edmunds as former Rams in NFL Camps. He is also the second Fordham quarterback since 2010 to sign an NFL contract joining John Skelton. I think it just goes to show, you know, no matter where you play a team like a school at Fordham, you still have an opportunity to show out, you know, it's division one football. If you, you know, you work hard and show out at that level, you know, NFL can find you from anywhere the commanders have found Tim. His next goal is to make it stick Pat o'keefe News.
