People with disabilities are now a step closer to having more of a say in Westchester County.

County Executive George Latimer signed legislation today to create the county's first advisory council for people with disabilities.

The group is expected to advise county leaders on issues including recommending legislation, programs and funding priorities.

Advocates say there are approximately 175,000 people with disabilities in Westchester County.

HVFORECAST

Is bitter outside. But we're wondering Addison, when is that warm up coming? Give us the answer. Big guy. There we go. Ok. Thanks Edison. That's what's the answer. Here's the answer guys about to you. No, let me go ahead and dive into these details because we got some important information to talk about and it's some positive news as we're gonna be seeing the pick of the week come our way forward tomorrow. Most of the Sunni guys, a nice mild breeze coming away certainly does feel much better than how it has felt the past several days. I mean, we're not gonna be seeing temperatures near record breaking levels, but hey, back to where we should be, that's a nice swing and a positive direction after we had lows in the thirties, low highs, I should say in the thirties now, moving on in for the next several days. Here are those morning lows coming on up and it will be a little chilly out there for tomorrow morning, but we'll feel much better by the afternoon hours and then the mornings coming up for the next several mornings. Number twenties in sight. In fact, not even low thirties out there. We'll be enjoying much more milder mornings and also mild afternoons coming through. But we do have to keep our eyes on when we are watching the showers. Come on down Friday is going to be a day. You do not go and forget that umbrella. I think between the two weekend days, Saturday is gonna be the dry of the two days. Our system just passes us just to the north, but we do have another one coming on in for Sunday and leaving us by Monday morning. So we will be watching a few rounds of wet weather come on through. But at least the cold air that's been sitting around the northeast is slowly getting nudged out of here. High pressure is moving on in. It's gonna be building up a nice south westerly flow helping those temperatures to move on upward. So let's track it for you in your future cash where tomorrow morning in pine Bush, you're waking up at 28 feels 21 over a new city. It's 30 feels like 25. Watch these numbers move up in the afternoon hours. Lots of low to mid forties out there for air temperatures and the feel like temperatures not too far off coldest number I see during this time frame is Middletown Field about 36 degrees. But hey, a light jacket, I think it's all you're gonna need. Don't wear a thick winter coat. Now going towards Friday here is that storm system I mentioned pushing out of the southern plains in the Ohio River Valley. It'll be bringing a scattered rain showers and some brief downpours for Friday evening ride. Then it's out of here by Friday into Saturday. And here comes another system swing on in through your Sunday morning. It will be lasting throughout Sunday, midday, on and off rain coming on through the rain showers will taper off by Monday and then we'll watch drier conditions move on in throughout much of next week. But unfortunately, it does get colder for the first night of Hanukkah.
