Memorial Day weekend has finally arrived and millions are expected to be hitting the roads.
Many residents say that after such a brutal winter, they are more than ready for the unofficial start of summer.

Although fuel prices in Westchester County are higher than the national average of $3.63, residents say they are not deterred and are excited to enjoy time with friends and family.
