HVFORECAST

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.

NY GOP chairman responds to court's rejection of congressional district maps

427gopreax10p

alright now to politics were reaction to the state's redistricting maps being rejected continues to come in. Also reacting to today's breaking news is new york's GOP chairman. Our senior reporter, Tara Rosenbloom spoke to nick Langworthy at length about the impacts of the court's ruling. Whether it be two separate primaries or one, I think two is the the answer that will land on. But you know, there's a lot of uncertainty. There's a lot of discussions that have to take place with the board of elections providing advice to the judge and the judge has got some serious decisions to make. I think he's made a very sound argument as to why this was a partisan gerrymander, why these maps were unconstitutional and I have the full faith the judge will have a fair and equitable and forthright process that he will make sure takes place. And when you talk about the uncertainty, that is the big question, what's next for candidates like alessandra Biaggi Vedat Gashi who are running in districts that essentially no longer exist because of this ruling? What happens now for them? Unfortunately, there's candidates that have spent a lot of money and done a lot of hard work collecting nominating petitions, working relationships and it could all be for naught because really, I honestly that these districts were ill gotten gains. Um these districts were created with a clear partisan intent. They violated the state constitution and unfortunately there's gonna be a lot of wasted effort this year. Uh as people on both sides of the aisle had to go and work in new territories, developed new relationships and, you know, I have spent a lot of money along the way as well. I feel bad for, you know, Ernest candidates that did that. But really we have to look at the long term goal, which is to make sure that we have fair representation in the state and that, you know, certain voices aren't those being silenced.
