HVFORECAST

We have another, we have another say 90 minutes or so before we start to completely dry things out here across the Hudson Valley. But we're going to end as a couple of wet snow flakes, mixing with the rain, even probably in Westchester County as I'm seeing right now. Let's take a look outside right now towards the Hudson River. It is still dark and early and the sky will brighten up through the six o'clock hour back to live Doppler radar right now. And so if you have to head out right now over the next hour or so, just slow it down for the conditions. Roads are wet, there are wet leaves around still this time of the year. This is mostly rain at the moment as we take you a little bit closer and give you a hyperlocal view here over towards Spring Valley. Actually a little bit more of some moderate rain over in Spring Valley right there along 287 Eastern to mount pleasant in arch more of the same, just some moderate rain at the moment, getting a few wet snow flakes mixing in towards Warwick and Greenwood Lake right now. It is some steady or like to moderate snow. Over in northwestern Ulster County. In these areas, temperatures are still above the freezing mark, but there can be some light accumulations on colder surfaces in those higher elevations in Ulster. What I want to show you here on the satellite and radar loop here is that some more of those blues popping up where we have the greens, that is a sign that some colder air is starting to filter on down into the storm as it pulls away off to the east. And we pretty much expect that as we go throughout the mid morning hours, this will end as a rain snow mix pretty much everywhere across the lower Hudson Valley. But any snow doesn't amount to anything, the ground still warm in the upper thirties to low forties. And you just have to watch out for the wet conditions as you travel as we go throughout this morning winds actually not awful right now. It's breezy at times. And as we go throughout the day, the wind can still be breezy in the 20 to 30 mile per hour range. So the futurecast shows the drying conditions by mid-morning breaks of sun after nine o'clock this morning. But staying breezy and chilly into the afternoon, dry stretch of weather tomorrow through the start of the upcoming weekend, temperatures near 50 Friday through Monday with more rain, possibly Sunday evening and into Monday of next week.

PUMP PATROL: War in Ukraine continues to push gasoline prices higher

W12pp39

Alright. Samantha, thank you a lot going on there and of course the war in Ukraine continues to push gas prices through the roof. News twelve's veronica jean shelter in terry town telling us more and more people veronica are now taking the train because it is so expensive to drive. So expensive. I just spoke to one man who is here at the Tarrytown train station taking metro north and the bus just because he says it is not worth it for him to drive anymore. But what if you don't have a choice? What if you have to drive like one of these taxi drivers? They have no other option right now the taxi drivers parked here at the station. They say they own their own cars. They have to pay for their gas, but they're charging the same fair right now for a ride. So it's hard to make a living, but I have to take a long time to two To drive, maybe 12 hours, sometimes 10 hours. It's a long, long, long time to drive. And it's not just taxi drivers. There are other business owners. I'm talking to one in particular who says because of the high gas prices, he has to cut back. Hear from him coming up at three reporting in Terry Town Veronica Jean Seltzer News 12 Everyone and I mean everyone is talking about the paint on the pump on social media today morning what is the highest price for a gallon of gas that you'd be able to afford. Well, here's what some of you said, Jim says $5 or more, it's going to start getting really challenging. No question there, Christine also in that same ballpark Approed $5 would be her limit. This viewer saying if I got up to $10 per gallon, it would not be worth to drive to my part time job. And this viewer agrees Diana saying that 409 was in Goshen but just went to 4 29 but I couldn't go over 5 19 working part time. And our last comment comes from scott. He says, when minimum wage is around 13, 15 hour, you need to work 20 minutes just to put one gallon of gas in your vehicle. So gas prices are already way too high. Head on over to our facebook page right now to weigh in and while you're there, also let us know if the rise in gas prices is causing you to start to re evaluate and change your driving habits or cancel any upcoming trips altogether, lisa
