All right. Well, let's give you a check of your weather. Now with storm watch team, meteorologist, Alan. No, Alan, you would tell me a little bit about how I should plan out my weekend. What are we working with this week? Oh, yeah, it's going to be a 5050 weekend. And unfortunately that a negative side of the 5050 might be a biggie. But before we get to that, let's continue to talk about this cold because it's that December cold that out the door this morning this morning, you felt it tomorrow morning especially. You will want that winter jack. It'll actually be near freezing for northern parts of our borough. 32 for Riverdale. A bit milder. The farther south you go. So th 35 City Island, 37. But hat and scarf. I would recommend that for tomorrow morning and into the afternoon, the clouds will keep us chilly all day long. Honestly, me, we might touch that 40 degree mark briefly there at around two or three o'clock. But most of the day will be in the thirties. Should generally be dry. Can't roll out an isolated Sprinkle, but we have a chance for a couple of snowflakes heading into Hanukkah, especially during the afternoon and evening as the sun sets, a couple of flakes are possible. Again, it's not gonna stick, it's just going to add to the festive feel here into the evening hours, it'll still stay chilly. And then the weekend ahead, this is where it's going to be a potential problem. We have an area of low pressure, warm air ahead of it. So Saturday is actually going to be pretty nice. But on Sunday, there's going to be plenty of moisture and rain and the possibility of a couple of thunderstorm are out there. That's why I got that yellow highlight on the 10 day forecast. Those high temperatures well into the sixties, in fact, but it's not a day where you want to spend time outdoors as it stands now. Ok. Is it going to be an all day storm? We're expecting, we're still working out the details on that. Today's Tuesday. This is for Sunday, but the potential is there for the second half of the day, especially for significant rain. Ok. So we still have a lot to go. Keep it here with news 12 will be on top of it all.
