He needs, he needs a comrade to roam the area with comrade. That was well, I mean, I mean, rut is kind of like what they do during this season. Maybe he's looking for. Uh, that's they, they think that day that's where he got his name from. Mother Nature. Clear skies out there. Temperatures in the forties dropping down into the thirties later on tonight, we do see a little bit of cloud coverage showing up. But for the most part, it's clear to partly cloudy with a temperature in the upper thirties, which is seasonable for this time of year. Tomorrow is overcast, an opportunity for rain developing around dinner time just as the evening rush begins. And I think we're probably going to be dealing with some wet weather that would carry right on into Friday evening as well. Temperatures are on the warmish side. But those rain chances are certainly going up after about 56 o'clock in the evening, temperatures will eventually back down into the upper thirties and lower forties. And for Saturday, we watch the temperatures rebound very quickly into the upper fifties and lower sixties. Then we're tracking some rain showers into the area for Sunday. Now, I want to stress that the weekends of 5050 split Saturday is looking pretty good. It is going to be cloudy but your temperatures are in the mid to fifties on Sunday, we're dealing with some on again, off again, rain showers that might carry into two Monday and the weather looks a little on the unsettled side, going into Tuesday and Wednesday. I think we're looking at mainly rain, but there's an opportunity. If the timing is right, there could be a wintery mix sometime late Wednesday evening.

Another check of that hyperlocal forecast. Definitely not as cold out there today and we have the sunshine too. So overall, this is just about as good as it gets for us. Not a bad way to close off the month, but we start off December with more clouds and a chance for a shower in the evening. It's mostly light rain, but it'll probably be around through the whole evening commute. Then the weekend comes with cloudy skies kind of spritzes and a little bit of drizzle. But as you see, temperatures have been kind of hovering close to 50 this afternoon and then we drop into the mid forties for any evening plans. So 7 p.m. dinner time looks cool but not cold. We're chilly in the morning time on Friday, a few spots close to freezing, but I'm expecting us to stay above it. And then Friday afternoon, temperatures are mostly in the mid forties with high temperatures close to 50 but it won't feel as warm tomorrow. And that's because we have cloudy skies. Here's a look at four o'clock seeing very light showers pass through the city and that will continue kind of on and off for us here in the Bronx at five o'clock, still some light showers tomorrow and then closing off Friday evening with just mainly cloudy skies. Those clouds just are so stubborn. Best chance of seeing the sun is gonna be on Saturday, but there's not much of it expect clouds to build overnight. Saturday with a few showers. If you have late Saturday evening plans, I'm talking after dinner time, Sunday, rain pretty much expected at some point in the afternoon or evening. Definitely not looking like a total wash at this point. But the later you get in the day, the better bahrain risk gets. So you need the umbrella there. Probably gonna need it for Monday morning too. That's still a few days out. But at least temperatures still look quite mild there and we're expecting high temperatures to stay only in the mid forties from the middle of next week. It's gonna be a little cool.

Those warming centers are welcoming, especially when we have cold days. But today wasn't so bad. I'm sure we'll have colder days ahead though in December. Right. Addison. Yeah. Unfortunately, Antoinette, as we start to move in towards the coldest part of the year going in through meteorological winter, that's December, January and February where we deal with cold days more times than not. But let's look ahead in towards December and how it's going to be broken down whereas you move on in through the month. Yeah, our temperatures will get colder, nearly 10 degrees colder, but the sun will be setting not as early as it has been. That will be set a little bit later, 436 by the time we ring in the New Year or so now winter begins four weeks from now Thursday, December 21st. That's when we officially welcome in the new season. And after that, well, here comes Christmas, of course, on the 25th and then New Year's Eve a few days along the way. Now, as we go in towards the month of the summer, typically we find colder temperatures, but the seasonal outlook for the Hudson Valley for December is showing a little bit of the opposite trending a little bit on the warmer side. Lot of things. Now we're not gonna be seeing sixties and seventies coming our way, but more times than not towards the higher end of that range, if not, maybe a few degrees warmer every now and then you can see a large chunk of the country. We'll also be seeing a similar temperature trend. So back here across the Hudson Valley, temperatures are slowly cooling down after a relatively mild and nice looking day, the sun shining on down. We go in towards your morning time frame. 915 on Friday, 40 degrees in New B 41 in Yonkers. Probably cloudy skies quickly get thickened up here, come scattered showers by 1 to 2 o'clock or so. Just light rain coming on down. Then some batches of moderate rain tours that evening commute time frame just shy of six o'clock, but the rain will be wrapping on up between 8 to 10 o'clock at night. Then for Sunday here comes round two, some wet weather scattered showers throughout most of the day. It will not be a wash up, but nonetheless, it's still a day between the two weekend days. If you have something to take care of inside the house, do it on Sunday versus Saturday. So it's gonna be a relatively nice day heading into towards next week. Temperatures unfortunately are getting colder. I see some thirties heading our way by Thursday.

LIFORECAST

Anyone with three little boys at home should go out and get them a dog as well. Kevin, they better not be watching because they keep asking me for a dog. And if we went there, we'd be in trouble. How do you not go home with? One of those dogs are beautiful, right? Great stuff and better weather for the dogs to get out for a walk and enjoy outdoors because it's been so cold, but we got a little bit of a break. So, uh, nice weather again tomorrow, if you want to head out early in the morning for a walk, it won't be as cold. We've had a beautiful sky around Long Island as well. This photo is from Don Manchester Jones Beach at sunrise. He was out early this morning, sent me a whole bunch of wonderful photos. It's great to see and great to see you guys out there, enjoying the cold weather, the warmer weather and whatever weather we have around Long Island. It's been pretty nice 6 a.m. tomorrow morning 44. So it's definitely not as cold as it has been. Today was really nice and tomorrow will be great in the afternoon, we get up to 51. But after about four o'clock, we'll track some showers. The best chance for that is going to be about 6 to 8 o'clock. So it's after dark, most of the day is dry in the morning. There's your sunshine. You'll notice the high thin clouds moving in through the day and eventually thickening up. So I'd say by lunchtime it's mostly cloudy. You see four o'clock, it's still dry. A little bit of rain will come in. This is 6 to 7 o'clock by Huntington Medford, Bridgehampton and the rain will clear quickly. So by 1011 o'clock, it's out of here and it's still pretty mild at night. So for the entire weekend, with more of that west southwest wind, our temperatures will be above normal. Look at South Saturday afternoon, it's mostly cloudy, but we're near 55 degrees in a couple of spots. Definitely a warm up and the same thing for Sunday morning, we'll still be in the fifties. We have a little bit of light rain, Sunday morning and afternoon break and then the next batch will come in for the evening. So it is going to get a little bit unsettled Sunday to Monday morning. The good news is most of next week, it looks at least looks dry and you'll notice we get back to those chilly temperatures. Next week, daytime highs will be in the forties.

Powers walk us through what we can expect as we welcome Friday. I don't like the way that looks. I know. Right. It's Friday and it's the first of December. A lot of changes and the weather is more rainy than white. Of course, temperatures are going to warm up even more than today. So this is what's coming at us tomorrow afternoon. The good news is, this is quick. It's not a lot of rain but it is Friday. This could impact that ride home tomorrow evening. Saturday looks ok, Sunday though, pretty soggy at this point and some of these showers may linger into early next week. There are some changes now for Monday and Tuesday. Let's talk about those temperatures right today. A lot warmer and it's still warmer this evening. In fact, it's 15 warmer right now in Bridgeport than it was just 24 hours ago. So, a pretty, pretty significant change out there instead of sub freezing temperatures tonight, the forties that you see out there now, we do have some 30 in parts of Litchfield County will eventually drop back into the thirties everywhere. So right now there are some clouds locally, but there's no rain in sight and the weather looks great. It's not so great over here near Memphis down into the southern plains and deep south. This system comes our way tomorrow and that will bring some of the rain. Now again, it's not a lot of rain and it's very quick hitting, but it will be around for the afternoon into the evening rush that it's out of here. But going into Sunday and Monday and maybe even Tuesday there could be some showers lingering. So the timing on those systems have changed a little bit. But I can tell you this much, it's clear, it's not as cold tonight. Temperatures will be in the 30. So you still need the heavier coats, but it's not that bitter and that bitter feel is actually gone, the next few days will be even warmer. So I'll be back with much more on that full forecast and we'll talk about the weekend and more about temperatures and what they do next week. Eric, back to you.

Garden Guide: Keeping hydrangeas looking good

You're growing hyd ranges in your garden this summer. You might be noticing some dead branches that you've never seen before. I did notice that. Actually, meteorologist Alex explains why and which plants might be holding up better this season. This time of the year, hydrangeas really shine. But I know there are many gardeners out there that are kind of disappointing in the way their hydra look because of yes, we have to rewind back to winter time. Check out this. We have some damage even still showing up on this hydra ship with all the dead branches that usually just aren't a problem at all, especially in my yard, which is very sheltered. So the reason why these hydrangeas had issues isn't because it was a cold winter. In fact, many of us actually had our warmest winter months on record. We broke numerous hot weather records all winter long. It's the fact that when it got cold, it got really cold close to zero across most of the tri state with wind chills down to 20 degrees below zero. And that was the problem with plants like hydrangeas, even fig trees, a lot of significant damage to those, anything that is kind of borderline sensitive to our coldest nights out of the year are going to have problems when it just drops from mild to freezing cold because the sap within the stems is still moving during mild winter days. But what's interesting is perennials that don't always come back did really well because the ground never got cold. Like these can, these are subtropical plants that aren't really reliable every year in the tri state. But obviously these came back with force in my garden. I'm meteorologist, Alex Kaia.
