A new library is opening in the heart of Orange County.

The $9 million facility in Goshen officially opened on Monday after years of fundraising and voter approval.

The library on Main Street is wheelchair-accessible and four times larger than the old library a few blocks away.

It has room for an expanded children&rsquo;s section and play area, as well as meeting rooms and space for tutoring.

HVFORECAST

Now, meteorologist Julian C Wright joining us to talk about not just the temperatures but also the rain out there, Julian. Absolutely. So now we are looking at a dry period in temperatures that are rather mild for this time of year, but we are going to see all that change except for the temperatures getting into our Sunday. So like I mentioned earlier for the first update, we are looking at these two systems which have been stalled out over towards the coast and for the northern parts of the northeast near Canada, those are creating a bit of a tunnel which is going to continue to flow this storm system straight into the northeast, which is not only gonna bring us cloudy conditions but even rain by the time we wake up for our Sunday morning, so expect wet conditions throughout the entirety of our Sunday. We do have some breaks though once we get to our Sunday afternoon and Sunday nights, but just notes, if you're gonna be outdoors, definitely bring the umbrella and the rain gear, but it's also not gonna be too bad of a day to just really stay inside and cozy up. Here's what we're seeing for our Sunday afternoon, around noon, widespread rain, a bit of heavier rainfall towards white plains and Yonkers. But temperatures will be into the upper forties, low fifties by the time we get into the noon hour, and that's gonna be pretty steady throughout the course of the day, especially for Yonkers in itself. But on and off showers are going to be possible, especially once we get to around five o'clock and heading closer towards dinner time. Sunday, late nights, we're still dealing with some remnants of some showers and even heavy rain possible just outside of uh Kingston as we get near our midnight hour. But things look to dry up by the time we get into our Monday morning, close to about three quarters of an inch of rainfall is gonna be expected across lower Hudson Valley. So it's not a full wash out, but it will be a day that we are really just going to want to stay inside because it's just gonna be wet near seasonal temperatures in the days ahead, mainly dry with clouds and trending chilly as we get into the later parts of next week, mainly for Tuesday is gonna start that trend. But for Hanukkah, we're looking at temperatures to be on a colder end for our Thursday into the upper thirties and the next weekend warming back up with rain chances. All right, Julian, thank you very much.
