We are now turning back to this storm watch, Allen. Today, we saw some flurries in the air, but I understand we have quite literally a storm brewing. Oh, for sure. It's actually getting on to the Pacific coast of America. It has a pretty long way to get here, but we know it's coming and that's why we're on storm watch, make sure that you're prepared for the second half of the weekend and into the start of next week because this is one of the big changes that we have from this time. Yesterday, the time of the storm seems to be a little bit later. Let's take a look at that future cast. This is at six o'clock showing that rain six pm in the evening. Basically morning activities. You're fine. Actually doing a little bit of a brunch. You'll probably get away without needing the umbrella, in fact, but after lunchtime, that's when the rain will start to pick up and it will pick up pretty much in a hurry. By the time we get to midnight, it'll be pretty much, uh, a steady, if not heavier rain. And then what I'm worried about this is a very summer like storm. Actually, when you're starting to see this yellow showing up, it almost looks like a squall line. Remember today it's Thursday. We're talking about Sunday night to see this already showing up on future Cast. That's a good indication that we are going to see some, not just heavy rain but windswept rain. Take a look at these wind gusts 40 to 50 MPH that could cause some wind damage. That also includes not just the trash cans. It also includes of course, the holiday decorations, those lights, any sort of loose items, either secure them or bring them inside before Sunday afternoon because by the evening time already wind gusts approaching 40 MPH and then as the heaviest of the rain arrives at around midnight or just after this is at 1 a.m. right along the water. This is especially where I'm worried about south of the Belt Parkway along, let's say Oriental Boulevard in Manhattan, out to Surf Avenue, Coney Island, Bergen Beach as well. Mill Avenue, Mill Basin. Something to keep in mind because those winds could be over 50 MPH. Looking at the rest of the 10 day. It's the big temperature drop after the storm, we're going from 65 to 35. That is a drop. So I've got to get my rain boots, my umbrella maybe cancel my plans or move them to Saturday. We'll see. Thanks Alan
