HVFORECAST

Look at where the storm is right now and what it means for all of us here in Westchester and the Hudson Valley Matt. Yeah, it's leaving us as we speak as we go throughout the morning. Expect breaks of sunshine and during the afternoon, a mix of sun and clouds just dry for the conditions still wet outside in spots on the ground, especially those wet leaves can make travel a little bit more slippery. So just take it easy this morning. But I mean, the day is improving as we go throughout the morning and into the afternoon, for sure. It is a day to bundle up though, temperatures will feel like the thirties at actual highs will be around 40 to 45 degrees, but it's still going to be a bit blustery into the afternoon with winds that can gust between 2030 MPH through the morning and into the afternoon hours. That's not damaging wind thankfully, but it's enough to make it feel almost about 10 degrees colder than it is here is the future cast into this evening. And overnight tonight, we're looking at clear to partly cloudy skies with overnight temperatures dropping down to around 30 or so into early on Tuesday. So the wind, like I mentioned here still gusting between 2030 MPH at times. That's not consistent gusts, but there's scattered gusts in that range. Even through the middle part of the afternoon hours. Today, here's a hyperlocal planner for Yonkers as we get into the afternoon sunshine after a gloomy wet start to the day, the second half of the day, so much better. A high of around 45 just feeling like the thirties and then clear skies to at worst, partly cloudy this evening and overnight as temperatures begin to fall back into the thirties by around six o'clock this evening. So highs across the board today, around 45 in Yonkers, like we mentioned 44 in White Plains to 40 in Middletown, but feeling uh close to 10 degrees colder at times when we factor in that wind at 20 to 30 MPH into the afternoon. Those are scattered gusts in that range overnight tonight, lows in the upper twenties to near 30 it's still breezy overnight. It's dry, but make sure you're dressing warmly overnight with an extra layer into early on Tuesday morning because it can feel like the upper teens and low twenties tomorrow morning, tomorrow, decent day. It's breezy. It's chilly. It can feel like the thirties again tomorrow, but it's nice and dry. And in fact, once we get into the later morning into the afternoon hours today and through the rest of next week it is a nice dry stretch. It's chilly through Thursday with highs in the low forties. Remember that's seasonable for this time of the year. However, temperatures do come up a bit to above average temperatures for Friday and through early next week in the upper forties to low fifties with our next chance for any wet weather late Sunday into Monday.
