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

Fordham Prep looks to continue dominance in track & field

They're gearing up for another successful season and news 12 sports director Pat O'Keefe has more from the Chilly campus of Fordham University. Year after year, one of the top high school track and field programs in new york city practices on this track, Behind Fordham prep and this year's RAMs once again hope to put their mark on the C. H. S. A. Last year. Fordham Prep won the cross country championship as well as the state catholic outdoor track and field championship. A lot of the top performers on that team graduated, so runners who were on the junior varsity have had to step up and they have the rams have one of the best group of sprinters they've ever had led by Jalen Santiago, who last week broke the school's indoor 400 m record with a time of 48.7 seconds in his first year ever running indoor track. Santiago is ranked first in new york state and third in the entire country. I was surprised a little bit, but I knew I was capable of it and I was, I didn't expect this time this early in the season, but yeah, I think I could better get better now and I'm hoping to run 47, this year. It's like inspiring, I guess. Um you see you practice with them every day and he's running crazy times to like be on the same team with that person. So it just, it pushes you to do better elsewhere. The mets much Ballyhooed offseason spending spree has hit a bit of a speed bump, as would be third baseman Carlos Correa will not be joining the fray after all. After all that posturing, Correa is staying with the Minute Twins, agreeing to a six year, $200 million contract. Just under three weeks ago, Korea agreed to a 12 year deal worth $315 million with the Mets. However, that was never finalized due to the Mets concerns over the condition of Korea's ankle.
