HVFORECAST

Well, we're looking at some wet weather on the way, Addison as we get our plans ready for the weekend, what are we looking at as we want to pay attention to the skies? Well, Nikita, speaking of that tree right there over there in Woodstock, those holiday lights wrapped around those trees and those displays. Well, they may be impacted by some gusty winds coming on. And thankfully though, you have several days to prepare for this system as it's not coming towards our vicinity until Sunday afternoon and lastly overnight in towards the first half of Monday. Hence, you see those rain changes standing tall amongst the rest of the several days to come right here in the Hudson Valley area. So let's dive in towards that forecast detail. We'll have partly the most cloudy skies Sunday morning, around seven o'clock, we'll have a southerly breeze, pushing more warmth and more moisture up this way. As you go forward towards lunchtime, the rain is just on our doorstep with heavy rain to be found towards the west. So if you're traveling for the upcoming weekend ahead, you're going westbound, the system will hit you earlier rather than later now getting up in towards the evening hours, we'll continue to light to moderate to eventually heavy rain move on and just aren't enough batches of the heavy rain coming through, but persistent winds coming through that will slowly start to increase and their strength as well as the coverage across the area. Hence, those holiday lights and trees outside may be impacted now up towards the overnight hours. That's where the heaviest of this system's impact could be felt across the region. Possibly some mo to heavy rains coming on down, widespread as well as gusts over 40 MPH. A cold front will be sliding through the region. So right by kind of, it's colder air, they'll be moving on in past Sunday night into Monday morning. Here we are eight o'clock in the morning right there. Maybe some areas to the North and West Sullivan County County may see a brief change over, but we'll definitely notice the change in the temperatures as colder air will come rushing on down at a brisk pace through the day on Monday. So we'll go from a high of about 60 degrees on Sunday to maybe about 45 or so on Monday. Now, every day on Saturday, it's the pick of the week, 54 degrees. Looking great. Definitely a great day to get out and about perhaps strap down some of those holiday decorations for the time being. We have a quar north westerly flow still coming on down where a few flurries can be found possible to the north if you're going out and about for any Hanukkah activities. Tonight, overnight temperatures dipped down towards the mid to upper twenties towards the low thirties of a light breeze coming on in. Overall, though a very quiet night coming our way tonight, tomorrow should be just fine and makes the sun and clouds high of 46 patch where we should be this time of the year, temperatures moving on up over the weekend and then dropping on down as we go past Sunday into Monday.
