Hey, Phil. Yep. It's gonna get stormy. It's gonna be wet and windy and a wild second half of the weekend. That's for sure. If you're headed to the Jets game, it looks good to start. And then about a half time, things will get pretty nasty. And on your way home, give yourself extra time, that's for sure. As for tonight, temperatures throughout the air feeling mild. We're in the mid forties, it's quiet, some patchy fog around mostly cloudy. Nothing going on for the overnight hours tonight or into your Sunday morning. We're looking good. However, those winds will start to pick up in the morning hours and they'll only increase. Let's move ahead on the futurecast here. We have some scattered showers developing with a little bit of heavier pockets throughout the area developing late morning and then more steady rain comes in the afternoon around 230 here and the winds pick up again. These are wind gusts 33 MPH park slope 26 and throgs neck 26 MPH and then that will increase as we step into the overnight hours, we'll have more moderate and heavier pockets of rainfall. Moving through. So we do have a flood watch throughout areas below us. And as we start to wrap things up for your Monday morning, the winds do stick around so the rain will clear out, the winds will stick around and they're gonna bring in cooler temperatures for your Monday. So Monday will be quite blustery. If you're headed to the Giants game Monday night, it's gonna be chilly. You definitely want to bundle up and then we're looking at temperatures in the forties for the rest of the work week and we're not looking at any rainfall after that.

Gov. Hochul signs anti-hate crime legislation 

Alright, I'm kurt center here at the alert center and today governor Kathy huckle taking on hate crimes calling the issue quote a rising tide of hate across the country, especially following the shooting at a gay club in colorado and the arrest of two men last week, right here in the city who allegedly were planning to attack synagogues. Now, the governor signing two bills into law today, all with the goal of expanding hate crime training and education here in our state. One bill requires those convicted of a hate crime to undergo prevention training as part of their sentence. Now, currently, that's an option that's only optional. The second bill creates a statewide campaign to promote acceptance, inclusion and tolerance. We have the power as individuals, as a government, as society to pull back and say no more and never forget that this is our city, this is our state and today we reclaim both from the haters, the bigots, the white supremacists. It starts right here right now and hate crimes are up this year. According to the N. Y. P. D's latest numbers, what you're looking at here, This is their latest report through this past sunday. A lot of numbers here, I know, but what I want you to focus on is down here 556 hate crimes so far this year to date. That's up from 41. Look at that 15.6% higher so far this year, we're going to see if these state, along with local efforts can bring these numbers down, dan. All right, thank you Kirk
