Tony. That looks amazing. Everything there looks delicious and, and it's just beautiful to look at as well. What a special place to check out Sunday storm, you might want to head over there instead of being outside on Sunday. So that's a good recommendation too because the weather conditions are going to feature downpours in the evening. So I have three things I want to show you about Sunday's storm and they're going to be freeze frame. So the first one here, the downpours look how widespread it is across the entire state. We're going to see afternoon showers. Now that's not going to be for everyone at the same time, kind of be like on and off. And then bam comes the flooding after seven o'clock, gusty conditions are going to be worse down the shore, you know, east of the Parkway, Monmouth and Ocean County, that's where you're going to see some gusts up to 30 to 50 MPH. That's not too nice. Right. So let's just be aware of that for our holiday decorations that are outside. Now, does that mean that the rest of the state is not going to see the win No, that's not true. Everyone's going to see at least 30 to 40 five mile per hour gusts. But the coast up to 50 that's the only catch there. And last but not least how much rain a widespread two inches of rain is expected with hyper locally, higher amounts. What do I mean by that? There will be some cells that set up and follow each other and will be a little bit heavier than the other cells in the surrounding communities. So we could see upwards of three inches of rain in some select communities. Well, Rizzo, which one, I can't tell you exactly where that's setting up yet, the storm doesn't exist nearby. So we can't really see the progression or the track of where those embedded cells are going to be forming. We'll know Sunday morning and we'll have an idea on Saturday night as well. Here's that forecast showing you across the state Sunday actually starts off pretty quiet. I think this is too early. This is 10 a.m. It shows like an isolated Sprinkle or something, but I, I don't think it's happening until maybe after one o'clock in the afternoon where we're going to start seeing some of the scattered showers and downpours. There could be some unusually dry breaks or unexpectedly dry breaks before that squall comes through by 10 o'clock at night. But that squall is the nasty squall stretching from west to east, exiting the coast by 4 a.m. in the morning.

Road Trip: Test your archery skills in Hackensack

This is certainly different if you're looking for new ways to test your archery skills or maybe just try it for the first time. Yeah, why not? New soul? Photojournalist mike roberts takes us on a road trip close to home. You know how they tell you to do what you enjoy. I spend more time teaching and doing archery than my other business. Now somebody was actually selling the business. So I came in as a partner because I really didn't know much, learned everything from scratch and here I am. I retired five years ago, I enjoyed archery when I was young. Let me get back into archery. I came here, I took lessons from jay. Our facility is a little small so we do recommend making a reservation. I was meaning to charge for a really long time actually, ever since I was a little kid and I don't know today, I was like, you know what let's accomplish this dream. The good news is if you need any extra help like me, they do offer lessons, you're gonna raise the ball right up to your shoulder height, standing straight. I wanted to teach people the correct way. Okay, so touch your chin. I like to teach in recurve 123. I think you get a better sense of what is the proper technique you have to try and figure out why or where you are and adjust so that you're correcting the errors. It's not important where you're touching, but it is important to touch in the same spot. I secretly listen to every single thing he says to you guys. I will attempt to beat mike the photo extraordinaire in this archery competition. Am I allowed to be critiqued in between shots? I'm like right next to you. Look at that, yikes, I'm sorry I have to win like 80% is all new people who's never done it before. They end up liking archery so much I like seeing improvement in my my accuracy today was my best day. I am going to be back for sure.
