It is 6 47 and time to check the accuweather forecast. And lets check in with amy. You guys the black friday forecast is really good. I dont know. Were getting a good deal. Temperatures are easy to take this morning in the low 50s. A lot of people out and about hustling and theyre leaving the house right now, especially in the boroughs, you can practically go without a coat. Were looking for temperatures in the mid 60s later this afternoon. But there is something that you should be aware of and thats the fog. With all this warmth at the surface, from yesterday and overnight, there is some fog developing in parts of the area. So we get a check on the numbers and we start with a low 50s. Jogging off the turkey i know. Were all right there with you. Humidity 86 and south winds at 5 miles an hour and pressure falling at this hour. Heres the deal with the dense fog advisory. It goes until 9 00 a. M. For areas in gray posted by the National Weather service and it does exclude northwest new jersey and parts of the Northern Counties. But from Orange County up to sullivan, ulster, dutchess, weve got some issues there and newburg reporting unlimited visibility. But we are still having problems with morristown and bridgeport and slip, fell mar and islip and belmar and toms river. The sun will be breaking during the day also and that will spike our temperatures in the mid 60s. It is much cooler with clouds over the weekend. So know that were starting with temperatures at least ten degrees warmer than they were yesterday at the same time. Transitioning into the afternoon, i think were staying ahead of the curve. And making it in the mid 60s pretty much across the board. There may be some low 60s showing up north and west. But other than that, it looks like a pretty much a good guarantee to get the 60 on your thermometer. Heres a large cold front producing shot of showers behind it cold air from the north will filter in. Tomorrow a transitional day sort of. 57 degrees and we wont rule out a shower.
