HVFORECAST

Alex Calamia. I feel like this is the perfect Sunday to just cozy up inside. I agree because I stepped outside briefly and was like, just so surprised at how dark it was Jen. And it's because of how thick the clouds are, but the rain is becoming a lot more scattered, a lot more drizzly and then eventually it just dissipates this evening. So you might be able to actually manage to go out without an umbrella, especially after sunset. The work week is totally dry. So that makes life a lot easier for us to plan. You do see that the rain chance is still more 50% through 10 o'clock. So that does mean that odds are you're at least dealing with drizzle and a little bit of mist until close to midnight. But then the rain chance drops off pretty quickly and we're not talking about a lot of additional rain. So you see uh totals including this morning, maybe a half of an inch or so. So that's manageable. Unfortunately, because it's been raining all day, the roads are a little slick. Visibility is a little reduced. So give yourself some time to get to where you have to go temperature right all day for the lower parts of Westchester County and the rest of us. Poughkeepsie, Kingston pine bush. You're in the mid forties, you drop very briefly into the thirties. Tonight. In the Upper Hudson Valley, there could be some frost in a few cooler neighborhoods. The rest of us are warmer. We're in the forties. It looks ok. Monday a little bit cooler in orange, Ulster County in the higher elevations. Most of us though get close to 50. We have a lot of sunshine in the morning and then clouds push in around lunchtime tomorrow, but those clouds do not produce showers. It's dry a less than 10% chance of rain on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. So this is your entire work week that's looking dry, but it cools down. So we go from 52 Wednesday to 45 on Thursday. Um, actually 45 on Tuesday by Thursday though. You're at 41 degrees. So that's the coolest afternoon out of the bunch. First night of Hanukkah. You're down to 32 for that Friday morning and then we rebound to the fifties for next weekend. So it's a

Over 80 police officers graduate from Westchester Police Academy

A triumphant day for more than 80 police officers from our area, they were finally able to walk across the stage at a graduation ceremony for the Westchester County Police Academy. Photojournalist Carina sort OK. I was able to capture their final stop before reporting for duty at departments across the county. It's a, it's a big, we have our 84 of us graduated today. It's definitely a dream and something I growing up I would never think would happen to me. I'm here for my fiance, christian Barreto. He's going to be a police officer in the department of New Rochelle. Just finding that fit within the law enforcement career was just a perfect fit for who I am and what I stand for. A lot of people happy, sad but sad in a good way. It was just, it was a good time. It was a nice atmosphere overall, very close friendships, but especially when you're going through hardships together, those bonds are definitely stronger than anything else. Things that I'm taking away from the academy and are going to apply it in the field. Community relationships, anybody out there that looks at me and it's inspired and if you aspire to be anybody, anything that you want to be, I wish that they give love and they get that love from the community and remember that we're here to serve others and put others first and then, and then ourselves
