In the morning here, I do believe. But as we go into the afternoon, we're talking about downpours strong wind and yet a heavy rainfall that could cause some flooding across the area. We do have a flood watch in effect for all of New Jersey from late on our Sunday afternoon until Monday here. So we take a look at our overnight temperatures, upper thirties in the northwest corner of the state. Otherwise we're in the forties here. We're above average for this time of the year. Now, here comes our Sunday future cast. I want to show you what happens in the morning, mostly dry. But as go into the afternoon, more and more of these greens and yellows and reds are coming on here and that means heavier rain, steadier rain makes its way in steadiest as we go overnight here where there will be some rumbles of thunder and the potential for damaging wind gusts. In addition to flooded roadways, we could see a shower too as it exits Monday morning after sunrise here. But I do believe by 9 a.m. we are dry here across the area and then we'll have a good amount of sunshine here. We'll take a look at our rain forecast, show you what you can expect. So through 4:30 p.m. upwards of an inch here and then we tack on another couple of inches as we get into your Monday morning and then we take a look at your 10 day forecast. You'll see once we get past Monday morning, good amount of clear sky and sunshine. It's a week.

It is to come before the storm tonight because as we go into our Sunday afternoon, Sunday night and early Monday, the potential for damaging winds and flooding rain will be here. We do have that flood watch in effect for all the five boroughs. Really. This runs from New Jersey all the way up into parts of Connecticut and into Long Island as well. This is an effect from late Sunday until early Monday here. Now there will be some fog as we kick off our Sunday, visibility is getting down to below a half mile as we go into the day on Sunday as well. It's not gonna be until those winds kick up that, that fog will go away. We look at our future cast here so we're dry overnight, but we do have those areas of fog as we start off your Sunday here. It's going to be a cloudy foggy Sunday morning, but a dry one. So if you want to do things outdoors Sunday morning, you could. But as we go into the afternoon, here comes that rain and rain will be heavy at times. That's why we're seeing these oranges and this red on your future cast. As we go into Sunday afternoon and Sunday night, the potential for thunderstorms will be there and that could bring areas of roadway flooding could also bring some damaging wind gusts with this as well by two and the heaviest rain is gone, but there's still pockets of rain as we go into your Monday morning, commute and then after 9 a.m. or so we should be dry. Let's take a look at your wind forecast. Not much on Sunday morning, the winds kick up into the afternoon, that fog will go away as a result. But we are talking about a gusty Sunday afternoon, especially places that are right along the water here. We're talking about gusts 41 miles an hour in Sheepshead Bay, 43 miles an hour at JFK Airport at 545. On Sunday, wind gusts will be 35 to 50 miles an hour as we go into your Sunday afternoon and evening. And that doesn't even include what we could see from a thunderstorm which could be higher. Take a look at your 10 day forecast. After we get past our Monday morning, we are dry as we go into the rest of the week. Here, temperatures generally staying below average next storm would come sometime next Sunday or the following Monday.

And we remain on storm watch because we are getting ready for things to change a lot heading into tomorrow. Meteorologist Crystal Ellis is here. So, Crystal, what do we need to know about the timing of what's heading our way? It's gonna be the afternoon is when things really start to ramp up and into the evening hours and especially the late overnight hours. So as we look at our planner overnight tonight, we're just dealing with some patchy fog throughout the area that's gonna to diminish the visibility just a bit as we look towards Sunday, we'll have scattered showers around in the morning, the rain and wind will pick up especially in the afternoon and especially by Sunday night, that's when we will have some heavy heavier rain, more steady and widespread and the stronger winds will be around as well. So definitely not the most pleasant end to your weekend. Let's take a look at it on the future cast. Here we are tomorrow morning, those winds between 515 MPH, not a big deal until we get into the late morning afternoon and again into the nighttime hours. So scattered showers around. Although there's some pockets of heavy downpours in the late morning hours and into the afternoon. So more scattered, more steady to widespread rain picks up in the afternoon. And then the heavy downpours really get widespread as we step into tomorrow night and the evening and check out these wind gusts around 11 pm, 31 MPH in New City, 26 New Yorktown Heights. So we're definitely going to be feeling the wind and the wet weather could lead to flooding. Maybe some power outages. Definitely, some tree limbs could be brought down with that wind. As we look at the backside of the storm. By Monday morning, we'll have wraparound showers and the winds will still be around. We could even see some wet snowflakes sneaking in as that northwest wind flow brings in colder air. So for the second half of your Monday, we'll clear things out. It's going to stay pretty blustery out there though. Again, Monday afternoon will be about 25 mile per hour wind gusts. Let's check out this 10 day forecast. We are in storm watch for tomorrow afternoon into tomorrow night and Monday morning before clearing things out for the rest of your work week will be feeling cold like December highs in the low forties but remaining dry.

Let's turn our attention now to our weather as we remain on storm watch because we have a serious storm heading our way. We're over here in the weather center with meteorologist Crystal Ellis. So, Crystal, what do people need to know about the exact timing here for this? Uh, the worst of it's going to be tomorrow night into the evening, late evening into tomorrow. The overnight hours. That's when we're going to see the worst wind gusts and the most widespread heaviest rainfall. But that doesn't mean before then we won't be experience some turbulent weather. So looking at our storm watch, we do have a high wind watch and a flood watch. 2 to 4 inches of rain could see even more than that in localized areas. So that will lead to flooding. You definitely want to try to stay home if you can for tomorrow. The winds also between 25 and 4540 MPH sustained gusting to 55 even 60 MPH for tomorrow. So that actually could lead to dangerous wind, damaging winds and uh down trees down power lines. So you definitely want to be weather aware for tomorrow, as we look into tomorrow afternoon, the winds start to pick up a little bit and we'll have some scattered downpours throughout the area as we step into the afternoon. Those downpours again, wherever they set up, that's where we'll have the most rainfall falling and check out the winds gusting up to 3035 MPH throughout the area. And this is around 4 p.m. and that's not even the worst of it as we keep going on. The future cast, you can see the rain is just training on in. It's continuing to come down in heavy bouts in the, in the red, orange and yellow shades and the wind is not going anywhere as well. In fact, it's going to be increasing as we step into the later hours. So here we are 11 pm, wind gusts 47 MPH in Smithtown, 47 Rocky Point and the rain continues to fall. So it's going to be a pretty serious storm for tomorrow. And then in your overnight hours, this is where we're seeing the worst of the wind gusts 52 in Rocky Point. And again, depending on where these fans set up will be the worst of the flooding potential. Looking at your Monday morning, it's still hanging on the winds eventually will calm down. And so does the rain. However, we will have a if you wrap around showers for Monday morning and blustery conditions for the second half of your Monday. So we are on storm watch Sunday afternoon, Sunday night and into your Monday morning before things begin to calm down, it gets colder, the wind sticks around and it's feeling like much more typical December weather highs in the forties for the rest of the work week. But at least it's quiet.

Hey everyone. It's meteorologist Joe Martucci. Here we are in a storm watch as we go into our Sunday afternoon all the way through Monday morning, the worst of it is going to be 8 p.m. to 2 a.m. where I would advise to stay off the roads. We do have a windswept rain during that time and it's going to be enough to cause some issues. Here's a look at our rainfall totals. Highest totals are going to be the further east you are in Connecticut but anywhere really in Western Connecticut, 1.5 to 3 inches of rain. This will cause some areas of roadway flooding in your basement might flood as well. Wind gusts as we go into the evening, generally 35 to 50 miles an hour. If you see a thunderstorm, it could be higher than that. Looking at our 10 day forecast after Monday morning, pretty much dry for the rest of the week. Few flurries Wednesday, next storm, next Sunday.

Live Life Better: Peloton's Emma Lovewell talks fitness, health and the road to embracing herself

Welcome to be. Well, if you're a Peloton user, then you definitely know Emma Lovewell from her powerful workouts, her affirming pep talks and her bumping playlist and they are bumping. But Emma wasn't always the fierce fitness warrior. We know today she's out with a new book all about her journey to healthy living and self acceptance. It's called Live Learn Love. Well, lessons from a Life of progress, not perfection. And Emma Lovewell joins us now, thank you so much for being here, Shannon for having me. I can't believe this all started with a Craigslist ad. You gotta talk about this ad that changed your life and led you to the world of Peloton. Uh, ad on Craigslist was, uh calling for, it was a $50 modeling job that was looking for somebody who felt a woman who felt comfortable in a gym and I applied to it. I got it. I ended up um meeting this amazing photographer who put me in touch with a modeling agency, worked with them. And then from them, I booked my first job with Peloton as a kick starter for their Kickstarter campaign as an actor slash model. And that's how I ended up meeting the whole Peloton team back in 2012. Now, have you always been this disciplined to stay in great shape and, you know, always be working out? No, I don't. I mean, there are days I'm glad to hear that. I feel like working out. I don't always want to. So when you are in that rut and you can't get out, you're like, I don't feel like getting out of bed. I don't feel like working. What would you say our viewers should do? Because I know we're all in that, that I mean, put on a cute outfit, your favorite workout outfit, your favorite leggings or your shorts or what not? Put your favorite song on start moving for five minutes. And if that feels good, uh maybe that turns into 10 minutes, 20 minutes, but we don't need uh an hour long workout every single day to feel good. I said that you're going to your classes like therapy. But you said writing this book was also like therapy for you. So, what did you maybe learn about yourself through this process? I write about um some challenging moments. My parents' divorce, my mom's cancer diagnosis, a lot of difficult things and reliving them and having difficult conversations with my family while writing this book was um therapeutic for sure. And I, I definitely um learned how to really open up to my family in a way like we had to have these difficult conversations that we hadn't had in 10 or so years and they didn't want to have them. But we've, and we've all changed since then. So how can we talk about these difficult things again now as who we are now, which is very different than who we used to be. Yeah. It's probably why you have the subtitle, which I love progress, not perfection. Talk to me about that. I love that phrase. And it's kind of just stuck with me my whole life because I am a perfectionist and I am very motivated and ambitious and I've pushed myself really hard and I think sometimes I realize, you know, perfect doesn't actually exist. It's this thing that I've been striving for, we all strive for it. But once we realize there's no, I've never met anybody who's like, oh, I'm perfect now, I'm good. I'm done. I don't need to exercise. I don't need to eat well, like I'm good. So it really is that journey. And if we all just come to terms with that journey that we're just trying to be a little bit better today than yesterday. And also growth is not linear. So every job is not gonna be better than your last job. Every relationship is not gonna be better and your last one, but we're here for the journey. We're here for the process. And speaking of acceptance and growth, you know, you talk a lot about that in your book, especially racial, racially because your mom is from Taiwan and your dad is white. How have you come to embrace your racial background and your parents through this process? My relationship with my mom is something I talk a lot about in this book and it's very, it's evolved. And then throughout the years, we did not get along very well when I was a teenager. Um And now I realize what a rock star my mom was. She moved from Taiwan to the United States. Um She created a home and a family with very little resources and there was not a large Asian community where I'm from. And so I look back and I think, wow, my mom is such a rock star. She went through so much to create a life for my brother and I for our family and even after a divorce and all that, she stuck around and she made a home and I just really admire her for that. And I, I talk a lot about my heritage and growing up with her and I used to be a little embarrassed about, about it as a kid. And now I'm just so proud. So what do you hope readers would take away from this book? I hope that you laugh. I hope that you feel a little bit lighter. Maybe after you take a class of mine, you feel this way too where you feel hopeful and you know, like the weight isn't so heavy on your shoulders like you can accomplish anything that you want to set your heart to and, and then after you finish your class, you can come read this book and just chill and relax. Feel like you worked out. We saw you cycling there. So we gotta talk a little bit more about cycling because this is be well and we wanna help our viewers out. What are some of the benefits of cycling? Oh, I mean, it's great full body. I mean, it's mental and physical, right? So exercise is great cardio wise. Um your, for your joints for so many things. It's a low impact exercise, right? So a lot of people who used to run or maybe can't run anymore, they um tend to go towards cycling. But also I just think about the mental fitness of it, the mental wellness, which is something I talk a lot about in my book. But um I just think that getting your body moving, sweating out the toxins, starting your day. Um with movement is one of my favorite ways to start my day. Thank you so much Emma Lovewell. Thank you so much for joining us. Make sure you check out the book and check her out on Peloton, right. Elizabeth, over to you.
