Well just put him in the here we go. In space. Look at this shot, some wind is noontime. We have sunshine, we have blue skies, we have, you know, some pretty weather. I mean, its pretty nice looking, but it is just really windy out. Its a brand new High Pressure ridge coming in. Heres our camera at 4 times square looking south, and that one is a little bit better as far as kind of bouncing around here. Heres our camera over in brooklyn looking across. There you see the water taxis, the new york water taxi going back and forth an the folks here on the Upper West Side at lunchtime here out and about. Come on by, our little studios are right here at west 66th street and columbus avenue on the beautiful upper wind advisory. Wins are northwest at 13, gusting to 35. 40degree temperature, dry humidity. Weve had a high number of 52 yesterday. We hit our High Temperature this morning around 54. And now were going to be looking at 44s wild from babylon, oyster bay, all the out to west hampton to east hampton, were looking at 45, 40 danbury, 30 now at monticello. So we have winds that are out of the west and the northwest at 25, 29 miles per hour, 18 around. But notice the gusts 40 at laguardia, 30 around jfk and 41 around newark. So we want to be very careful with this wind around for the rest of the afternoon and its also feeling chilly out here. Going to feel like the 30s as we go into the evening and the 20s will be the real feels tonight. Its windy and colder. Temperatures going to be falling into the 38 territory as we go into tonight and down to 26 for the overnight low in the city and 18 in the suburbs. The wind will die down tomorrow, but its still prisoning and cold despite sunshine. Were at 38 for the high. Normal high as weve been saying is 42. So heres your accuweather sevenday forecast. Some snow showers friday morning. I think theres a coating, enough to kind of make roadways slippery, an then sunshine saturday. Saturday night into sunday snow or a mix and then look at tuesday, up to 62, and then we flirt with 70, mid60s, upper 60s next week. Again, everything in one shot, bill.
