Graham joins us from, she said, Bay with what you need to know as you cast your ballot. Faith. Yes. Dam right now, I am standing outside of James Madison High School here in the 48th district and the city council seat is just one of 11 up for grabs in our borough. So clearly a lot at stake. Now all morning it seems as though there has been a steady stream of voters heading inside to make their voices heard here in district 48 incumbent in a ver is seeking re election against her opponent, Amber Adler. It's a race to watch as has been under fire after being arrested for bringing a gun to a pro another race to keep an eye on his neighboring newly redrawn district 47 which stretches from Bayridge to Coney Island. Current council members are Kan and Justin Brandon are going head to head in that race. Both of them previously representing parts of that new district. We had a chance to ask voters how they feel about this election as well as what is impacting who gets their votes. I took into consideration with the fact that I have never seen the two candidates running for the council district here. Uh uh Vernik off or uh ever. Uh I've never seen them uh at any civic meetings at community board meetings or precinct uh uh council meetings. I'm taking consideration the high crime and lack of safety in New York and someone that stands with law enforcement and that's tough on criminals. Keep in mind that polls close at 9 p.m. and when you head on inside to vote, you don't have to bring any documents. So long as you included identification when you first registered to find your polling site, just head on over to our website news 12 dot com in, she said by Faith Graham News 12.

Take it, you know, today, I'm calling it for a good ish day now because you're not going to be seeing the wet weather and notice our silver lining here, 60 degrees. That's nice and very warm, big departure for December 2nd. And uh we are noticing the trend also heading into the pre dawn hours into tomorrow. Now by tomorrow afternoon, you'll definitely need those umbrellas, a lighter jacket alert for sure. Today, what to wear looks like that um, umbrella for tomorrow's soggy on and off showers all day and heading into dinner time. That's when things really start to improve. But a seasonal return once again, specifically Wednesday into Thursday, as we walk you through our future cast, the clouds are here and they will continue to stay with us thickening and also gradually building to more shower activity heading into overnight at first light, but then we have these rounds of rain. So, you know, not everyone gets to see them and experience them all at once, but their heavier pockets also embedded as early as eight and seven o'clock in the morning. You'll notice Brooklyn, you kinda see that, especially when we're talking about heading towards the afternoon time frame. So after 12 o'clock, that's when we can start to notice a bit more of those moderate heavier pockets, the contours of the deeper um, greens, as well as oranges and yellows. We're gonna need those umbrellas handy all day tomorrow. So be mindful of that accessory by four o'clock, things really lighten up and the showers seem like they kind of exit. But, you know, we are left with the clouds still at bay. So it's kind of a bit more of a damp start heading into Monday. Nice, beautiful clearing and the sunshine is back into play as we start off the next week. Now, as far as rain total, it looks like this. So three quarters of an inch close to an inch for some spots, very localized. I'm not very concerned about localized flooding. Uh but because it seems to be such kind of like nuisance rain, it's just gonna be a rainy day and that's something to just be mindful about. By Tuesday, Wednesday, we get back into the forties and as we start off Hanukkah on Thursday, we are expecting drier conditions and high temperatures into the forties. Much more like December.

VOTE 2023: What New Yorkers need to know before heading to the polls on Election Day

2023. As voters across the city are heading out to the polls here in the Bronx, there's a lot at stake in News Twelve's Faith. Graham joins us now with what you need to know as you cast your ballot. Faith. Yes. Then right now, I'm standing outside of James Madison High School, a polling site here in Brooklyn. This side like so many others across the city has been welcoming voters all day. It comes as the Bronx has nine city council seats up for grabs. So definitely a lot at stake this election cycle. There are no mayor, governor or presidential races, so a few less things to worry about. But locally, as we mentioned, there are nine contested city council races, one to keep an eye on district 13 which covers several neighborhoods from Allerton to P and be to City Island. That seat is currently held by Marjorie Velasquez. She'll be facing off against health care worker, Christy Marmorato, who won the Republican primary by just 50 votes. We had a chance to ask New Yorkers how they feel about the election as well as what they're taking into consideration when voting. I'm taking consideration the high crime and lack of safety in New York and someone that stands with law enforcement and that's tough on criminals. The economy is very important and also the way the whole um immigrant situation is the city is going to run out of money if we don't, if we don't do anything about it. Keep in mind that polls close at 9 p.m. And when you head on inside to vote, you don't have to bring any documents. So long as you included identification, when you first registered to find your polling site, just head on over to our website news 12 dot com in, she said by Faith Graham News 12.
