Incumbent District Attorney Janet DiFiore has declared victory in the Democratic primary for Westchester County District attorney.

The heated race was a particularly nasty one. DiFiore and her challenger, former Bronx Assistant District Attorney Tony Castro both blamed each other for negative campaigning.

DiFiore is running as a Democrat for the first time.

"I don't think there's any doubt that Democrats recognize me as the real Democrat," she says.

HVFORECAST

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
