Fantastic. You know what? That smells like victory. Yeah, it looks pretty good. That is really cool. That's cool. That's fantastic. Now, we've got some issues with our forecast going into the weekend. It's not a total washout, but Sunday's not looking all that great. You've got those holiday decorations up. Uh, you may want to think about bringing them down Sunday afternoon. That's going to be the time frame that you have Sunday morning, Sunday afternoon because by, let's say dinner time, we are really going to start to see the weather going downhill fast with moderate to heavier rainfall. Rainfall rates of a half inch to almost an inch an hour in some cases and winds that will be sustained between 2030 miles an hour. Winds gusting to 4050 maybe even upwards to 60 miles an hour, especially along the shoreline. The national weather service has issued a flood watch not only for New Jersey, but just about the entire tri state area. We're anticipating a lot of water to fall very quickly, especially late Sunday night in a very early Monday morning. On top of that, you'll have the winds gusting. So it's a wind driven rain. There's an opportunity that a few dead branches could potentially come down in this type of wind. We could also be looking at power flickering from time to time, not the worst windstorm that we've been, we've had to deal with. But I think the consistency of the wind going from south westerly, then eventually to north westerly puts a little undue stress on some of the branches and the, the existing power lines that are out there. So again, going into early Monday afternoon, winds are still going to be upwards to about 2530 miles an hour. But now those temperatures are beginning to drop. And on Monday, those temperatures are going to be dropping fairly quickly. We warm up tomorrow. It's mild for the first part of Sunday. Then as those rains come through, we're really going to start to see those temperatures beginning to drop forties right now, dropping down into the upper thirties. A few spots north and west may actually get even cooler to about 30 or 31 tomorrow afternoon because of that south, south westerly wind. Your temperatures are mild for this time of year, but it's a dry day. I'll be optimistic and say it's partly sunny, but I'm counting on more clouds than sunshine real mess Sunday night into early Monday morning, but next week looking great lots of sunshine. But on the chillier side, more details on the forecast coming right up, Dave. Thank you. A risky selfie left tourists swimming in the streets of Venice in three things to know.

Way towards the weekend and one day definitely better than the other. We got to let you know what's going to happen on Sunday because it's definitely going to impact things, maybe heading even into Monday. Hope, what are we looking at here? Yes, a lot of travel woes starting Sunday evening and lasting into Monday morning. So here's the travel timeline. As early as 9 a.m. on Sunday, we'll be dealing with some scattered showers and throughout the day, it is going to turn windy and even gusty 25 35 MPH after 8 p.m. through at least 4 a.m. on Monday, expect windswept downpours that can reduce visibility and also just bring some hazardous travel conditions with any of the flooding concerns that we have across the boroughs. Now Monday morning, around 4 a.m. to 8 a.m. we're still going to be dealing with some standing water. But thankfully, the rain is coming to an end. It is turning drier and colder with temperatures in the mid 40. So here's where we're starting our weekend, the sunshine and the chilly temperatures are with us on Saturday and then we'll be climbing into the mid fifties throughout the day, a blend of sun and clouds really gonna be a nice time to go outside and enjoy the conditions while we have its Sunday, excuse me, starts off dry and then we're seeing some scattered showers during the late morning, early afternoon and then it gradually begins to ramp up in intensity again, steady rainfall, moderate to heavy downpours will be possible even through the overnight. This is around 1 a.m. On Sunday night, we are seeing those temperatures crashing from the sixties to the forties and the rain doesn't even take us into early Monday morning. So your Monday morning commute will still be impacted by the storm and we will notice that chilly gusty wind throughout the day, highs will be in the mid forties and this is what's new. We actually have a slight risk for some scattered flash floods across portions of the city.

We're on storm watch for tomorrow, especially in the afternoon and the evening, we have two problems, heavy rain and gusty winds. There could be a few spots that briefly see 40 to 45 mile per hour winds which would bring the power out in a few neighborhoods mostly toward the lower Hudson Valley, Westchester County. That could be a problem and then also some localized flooding Sunday afternoon and especially in the overnight hours. So if you are planning on dinner time plans for Sunday, that will be a problem today, really pleasant at 10 o'clock or already close to 50 in Westchester County. And then we're in the mid fifties all afternoon. So it's actually a bit warmer than it was yesterday, but also a little bit on the cloudy side. If you have dinner plans at eight o'clock tonight, 36 in Newburgh, 3035 degrees in Middletown. So a little bit cool, but it warms up by Sunday morning. You're actually warmer in the morning time than you are in the evening tonight. We're expecting close to 40 for the upper Hudson Valley mid forties for the lower Hudson Valley temperature is definitely not the issue here. We will see some stray showers first thing in the morning tomorrow, but it becomes warm, widespread guaranteed in the afternoon. So you see that chance after brunch time really goes up quite a bit and there will be some heavy rain in the mix as well as well as wind. Now again, the wind is not a problem for the first half of Sunday, 2 p.m. Still not seeing any major wind, but there will be steady rain. Four o'clock, really steady rain here, it's a wash at this point, but the wind isn't a huge problem. 6 p.m. Winds starting to pick up a little bit. But look at this now, we're talking 20 to 30 mile per hour winds at nine o'clock. So some power outages are make sure you have a backup alarm clock. Sunday night for Monday mornings, wake up because look at the wind up to 30 MPH, that's kind of hard to sleep through. And although it's drying out on Monday with that wind shifting to the northwest, it is going to be still quite breezy on Monday. So a slight risk for scattered flash flooding. You're gonna want to watch out for underpasses roads, small streams and drains as well with all those leaves out there that could kind of clog up too. The rest of the week looks pretty quiet and dry. Once we get through Monday morning

But on Sunday, we are going to watch showers throughout the day, the worst of this weather will get here at night. So at least that's the good news. Most of the really bad stuff with the heavy rain and strong winds will be overnight Sunday and hopefully we most of us are sleeping through it. So 55 Saturday, 60 on Sunday, but it will get breezy through the day, strong winds by the evening with that heavy rainfall, we could get 2 to 3 inches, maybe more in some spots. So that's some pretty heavy rain. There could be a little bit of flooding in some spots overnight. Sunday, here's a look at your Sunday timeline. The morning is dry, you see the clouds 10 a.m. we could have a spot shower. Most of that rainfall will come in after two, the heavier rain with the big front that's passing by will come in after eight o'clock. So especially around midnight, that's when we could see the worst of it. So Saturday looks nice. It's partly sunny, it's warmer. We're in the fifties. Temperatures are about 10 degrees above normal. And by Sunday morning we start the day in the fifties, we're going up close to 60. This is two o'clock in the afternoon and we do see these showers popping up so they'll be hitting. You have to expect some wet weather on Sunday. But this big front that will bring the heavy steadier rain is off to our west until about eight o'clock in the evening. Slowly passing by overnight. This is 2 to 3 a.m. and we have that heavy rainfall with the strong winds in Suffolk County trekking towards the east end Monday morning and then it will get out of here during the height of that heavy rain. We could see winds gusting 40 to 50 MPH, but.

Saturday is the good day. Sunday is not. Sunday is going to be very rainy and windy. And the only good thing about Sunday are those temperatures well above normal and the taste of spring coming our way now with Sunday's rain, there's still a little bit of wiggle room on the exact timing of this. So be sure to stay with us throughout the day tomorrow for more updates. But we're talking about 2 to 3 inches of rain that spells flooding. Coastal flooding is possible during high tide and these winds coming through could gust up to about 50 miles an hour and that's strong enough to bring some power lines down or tree looms down and cause some issues. Of course, with those holiday decorations. So tomorrow is the prep day. It's nice and mild. You can get out, look around your yard, secure all those loose objects around your home and then Sunday going into Sunday, rather those clouds collect it dry. Saturday night, temperature are even milder here. Take a look at that extended forecast. So the storm watches up for Sunday night into Monday. Monday morning's commute if you're up before the sun rises. It could be impacted by that rain, but temperatures are going to fall during the day. On Monday, 58 occurs just after midnight, back down into the forties and the forties stick around throughout next week. And that's a look at your local forecast.
