Well, let's get a check of your local weather with Storm March team. Meteorologist Hilda Estevez. Hilda. Yes. Sah. So we are talking, you know, significant a warmth, especially for today. They're quite big of a departure for December 2nd, you know, approximately 10 to 15 degrees above where we should be for this time. Also, we're expecting a soggy Sunday on and off rain showers and they're exiting sooner than anticipated. And that is a good thing because that means that we have a drier at evening and heading into dinner time as well. Seasonal return on Wednesday, Thursday and notice our rain chances pretty consistent and very well up there, close to 100% well into the morning and even beyond lunchtime. So it's rounds of rain. So we could expect to see this continuing and lingering into five o'clock. Now, when it's all said and done, approximately seven o'clock, I think is for sure the exit time for all this rainy weather and we're expecting close to an inch of rainfall when it's all said and done. Now, we are expecting to see some more showers possibly forming for Wednesday and some snow flakes and that potential comes also with a cooler temperature. So today, enjoy this amazing warming trend. Close to 60 degrees 730 brings those clouds thickening and building. Of course, once again in those showers, arriving into the overnight, a little bit later on the onset of them. And then of course, they are a bit more widespread right around seven o'clock tomorrow, heavier in points. South Newark also getting there by nine, we notice that it's a bit more progressive and intensity all throughout the state. And by 12 o'clock, we notice things lightening up for central and northern New Jersey staying pretty consistent and a bit more bulked in that portion of the state. Now that exits right around four and five o'clock and we're left with some clouds gradually clearing out, heading into the evening and overnight time frame. Now Monday looks better and a bit cooler with the forties. Here's a look at our exclusive 10 day forecast.

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.

Looking day out there. But it's definitely better today than it is tomorrow and we even have a few peaks of sun. Possible. We are kind of wedged in between two air masses. We have a really humid setup in between, but there is a little bit of dry air higher up in the atmosphere that could bring some breaks in the clouds. I think that the model guidance is kind of overdo the sunshine, but I wanted to show you his bigger picture view because you can now see that next storm system coming our direction. So probably seeing more clouds and fog by about 1011 o'clock tonight, the latest and then by Sunday morning, even if you're an early riser, you're waking up to light rain and persistent rain and it's just going to continue all morning on Sunday, all afternoon. It's a gross feel. Now, the good news is most of this rain is light so that kind of limits the severe aspect to it. But you know, these roads could be a little bit slick because of just the amount of rain, just the duration of it just really lasting all day. There are improvements for Monday morning, we're seeing peaks of sunshine early in the day, but then things cloud over Monday afternoon, we have a northwest wind that's gonna come in and cool us down. So here are your temperatures this afternoon? We're in the mid ff as we close off the evening. How about near 50 again? It's gonna feel a little chillier because we start to introduce rain into the forecast. You're low tonight in Kingston is 40 it's 47 in Yonkers, so not a huge spread and we don't warm up much on Sunday. You're only 45 in Kingston now, that's pretty close to average, but you factor in the rain and it feels so much chillier. Westchester County, maybe parts of Rock County, you could hit 50 tomorrow. But again, this is coming with a guarantee that it is gonna rain. Now, there could be a few dry breaks, but most of the day is gonna be wet and then for the work week, we dry out. So, you know, good timing. If you have plans for the work week, 50 on Monday might be a little optimistic because we do vet northwest breeze in the afternoon. I am expecting a majority of the day to be in the forties and then we are stuck in the low forties for Wednesday for Thursday. The first night of Hanukkah looks very cold and so does Wednesday night at 26. That's gonna be pretty chilly next weekend we rebound, close to average, but we're tracking a chance for some precipitation. So we'll keep an eye on it for you. You're watching News? 12.

It's gonna cool down again in the 10 day. Let's talk about the bigger issue, which is going to be the rain tomorrow. So we do have cloudy skies all weekend, obviously a fog out there this morning too. So that's creating some visibility issues. But on Sunday, it is a steady rain for a good chunk of the day. So today is the pick out of the weekend. There'll be some peaks of sunshine this afternoon around lunch, but not much of it. Temperatures are in the mid ff maybe even upper fifties if we get enough sunshine, but I would not count on the sun. It's gonna be a possibility that we, you got a few breaks in the clouds, but most of the day is pretty cloudy. This is 5 p.m. the sun is already set and temperatures are still in the fifties. So you don't need the heavy winter jacket. Just a light jacket. Today will do dinner time is mainly dry, but after 89 o'clock, there could be some spritzes and stray showers. It's a all day full LG wash out on Sunday, light rain in the morning, check this out. Temperatures are in the fifties in the morning, that's above average for the afternoon at this point in the year. But we don't warm up on Sunday. It's gonna stay 50 all day with this very persistent, very steady and very damp rain that just sticks around until I'd say about six o'clock or so. So, if you have any brunch lunch, early dinner plans Sunday, I just don't see a lot of opportunity for dry time for you here. So we're gonna keep that in mind. Temperatures are not bad all the way through Monday. We're hanging out in the fifties. Today's high of 56 is the warmest that we've actually seen since mid November morning. Lows are in the forties, so no worries about frost. No worries about cold when you're stepping out the door. Tuesday morning, we're back down to 36. So that's kind of setting the stage for a cooler upcoming work week, 46 there, 43 on Wednesday and 42 on Thursday. It's not the coldest set we've seen, but it is definitely pretty chilly for that first night of Hanukkah. Expected to definitely feel like it is December, but we rebound a little bit next weekend with another chance for some rain. Just a little heads up on that. But the work week does look dry. Not that we want to talk about the work week on a Saturday, but that's how it's shaping up

And gray. But we could potentially be seeing a little bit of the sunshine shining on across Western Connecticut later this afternoon. Notice the winds nice and calm, but that's also gonna be a recipe for some overnight fog forming and notice how different our temperatures look for tomorrow. Big changes here. So yeah, we do start off mild and we noticed a little movement when it comes to those temperatures just staying stuck right around the forties. But notice also that I changing the winds will become a bit more active and yes, we could expect several rounds of rain, no major big accumulations, but it's going to be a little bit of that nuisance rain with some heavier pockets. So if you're traveling along interstate 95 regardless of its north or south, you could encounter some pockets of showers for tomorrow and things definitely are going to start to settle back down with some better clearing for your Monday as far as rain forecast and what we could expect in the coming days. Well, after tomorrow showers are looking and trending a bit more dry, but we are watching here in the weather center, the potential for some showers and a little bit of that wintry mix coming back into play on Wednesday. So that's really the day that we're also going to continue to focus on in the coming days as we fine tune the temperatures as well as the precipitation trends. Heading into December 12th. We are trending typical for Western Connecticut and across the entire tri state area. Here's another look at exclusive 10 day forecast.

Fitness in Four: Back exercises for beginners

Welcome back to be. Well, it's time now for fitness in four. So did you know that our back is used in almost every movement in our entire body? That's right. And that's why it's so important to have a strong back and these exercises will get you one even if you're a beginner. So they call this one the Superman. And there is definitely a great reason behind it. Maestro talk to me first about what they're doing and why they are doing Full Superman. And the reason why full Superman is good is because it abs makes your back stronger. And as we know, three out of 10 Americans has a back problem which is about 80 millions of people and that number is gonna keep growing. So we definitely wanna make our back stronger. So what they are doing is full Superman. They are raising their chest up. Yeah, and then knees up, you notice I right the ground. They are the glutes at the same time. Ok. Now, for somebody who might find this too hard, is there a modification we could do? There's a modification, you keep your knees on the floor and you basically raise your upper body up. Ok. Just the upper body. That's what Vanessa is doing. And Lisa's got the full Superman. So if at home it seems too much you could follow Vanessa there and keep the legs down. Ok. But that's really hard. It is. It is. I feel that you got your own pace. Ok. Ok. So how many are we making them do right now? Because it seems like an a for like 30 seconds. Ok. Ok. So let's move on to the next back exercise. No equipment required, which is so great. So the next one is called breast stroke. Ok. So basically let's get it going. Ok. Mhm. So it's just like as I thought I was swimming. Yes, I'm swimming. You contract your shoulder blade and you bring it back forward. Ok. And now what about my head? What about my neck? That's why every time you bring it back you make sure you contract your shoulder blade, you have support so you don't strain your neck, you know, because if you, you could put your head down with it with the towels but to get the full contraction and the muscle activation, you wanna keep your neck up a little bit. Ok, great. Now what's the next thing that they're gonna do? The next thing they're gonna do is and stand push ups, up and down, push ups. So you wanna kind of be in that plan position on your forearm and then go up into that beginning. Push up position, right. Let's give it a try with them. Let's try that. Ok. So we're gonna go down, we're on our forearms, then we go up and stand, push up, down and up. Now, the modification for this is basically you bring your knees down and you go down. Ok? Oh, ok. That and, uh, and you can always do this for 30 seconds, take a 15 minute break or a 15 2nd break. But I like the idea of a 15 minute break. And then the last, but not least, what do we wanna do? Now, we're gonna flip over. We are doing bridges. Now, this is the most common back workout bridges. You know, because basically you're laying on your back and you're getting everything on the back of your body that yes. And I won't really wanna squeeze at the top. And we see here that the next that has her toes up, Lisa has her toes down. So there's different ways you can do it to target different muscles because some people have bad issues. So basically keeping your feet completely flat is pulling your back. So sometimes you could clench your eels down and raise your toes up to give you a lower bag some support. All right, I love it. This is great. Thanks so much. We were just having our own conversation about. Yeah, because there's so many great back exercises and it's really, it's your posture. It's everything, you know, both of us are standing up really straight now. It's too, to stand up straight.
