Audrey we have been benefiting from mild temperatures over the last month one of the warmest decembers own record. The system plaguing that part of the nation is a classic system of warm system of warm and cold air clashing together along the frontal boundary between those two temperature changes is where we are finding the weather. Ernie we have seen all the damage and its heartbreaking that you are saying its almost a normal thing. Audrey meteorologically speaking at the class up classic weather set up. Ernie we will get a wintry mix tonight. Audrey the same system is coming at her direction. We are going to get our first taste of winter precipitation with some people i think of and waiting for. Ernie as far as traveling goes there will be an issue. Audrey especially north of the city. That was a big shocker for everyone even though temperatures were averaged for this time of year definitely got everyones attention after the warm weather we have been experiencing especially since yesterday felt so good and felt the bottom dropping out is the night went on. High i temperatures today were mostly into the 40s across the area. Upper 30s to the north here and areawide we are sitting in the same kind of rain with 39 in islip 36 bridgeport dirty seven towards montauk. Check out the numbers to the north. The freezing mark in sussex and poughkeepsie and below that a monticello. Temperatures will be critical factors that go into the next 12 to 24 hours of the moisture begins to move into the region. Depending on how close you are to the freezing mark will to be in your area. Temperatures took a big drop from this time yesterday. We are running 20 degrees colder we have a northeast wind coming in keeping us with a damp feel across the region and right now the ceasar at 10 to 15 miles an hour but these will pick up tonight in the blustery with a windswept rain across the area. Windchill factors in the 20s and 30s tonight. It will be very cold across the air and here comes the moisture. Right now couple of spotty showers we are picking up on the radar. The atmosphere is still pretty dry but as it begins to sort of increase in moisture or become more saturated fats when they will see a lot of precipitation began to reach the surface. Heres the system as it sits right now. The majority of the moisture is across the Great Lakes Region extending towards the southeastern states. This is headed in our direction. I think at the onset we will begin to see sleep north of the city across northwestern new here it is on futurecast after nine or 10 00. Areas on the coast i think will mainly be a rain event. The overnight the iciness will be to the north and it pushes further north towards sullivan and ulster and Dutchess County by tomorrow morning to me. Change over to reign in rock on and westchester by tomorrow morning and some of that rain will come down heavy at times of flooding will be an issue during the morning commute tomorrow. Everything exits out for the evening commute so that should be a commerce in area and wednesday lots of thoughts remain do we could see peeks of sunshine time to time and the chance of an isolated shower. Its quiet in the Weather Department after tomorrow morning. Again the ice is whether to the end the county shaded and purple along the coast me in the brain have to watch for flooding in lowlying areas especially. We have a Winter Weather advisory north of the city. It starts tonight and goes into 10 00 or 11 00 tomorrow morning. Overnight tonight and we will have gusty winds and temperatures hovering around the freezing mark especially north and west of the city. Tomorrow we will warm at back up and will warm at backup in the 50s and thats why we anticipated changeover to rain once the morning progresses. The rain will will become a bit times times in the morning so watch out for flooding for the ersatz of your tuesday. Then it gets quiet. We close out 2015. Temperatures above average in to get into the new gear and thats when we will hover around normal readings for this time of year and we will stay dry and quiet with sunny skies for the weekend.

They have four minor leaguers and none of them were top prospects were lefthanded Geraldo Chapman the closer who throws the hardest of anybody. Ernie what you think of them . Russ e. Throws close to 104 miles per hour. I think hes an enormous talent but what makes this a headscratcher to me, theres an investigation going on a ledge to what happened in midoctober of Domestic Violence where he is alleged to have choked his girlfriend, threw her against the wall and fired gunshots in his garage. Ernie but no charges filed as we understand. Russ no charges have been filed however just because no charges have been filed doesnt mean he cannot be suspended by Major League Baseball under Domestic Violence policy and there is Brian Cashman was on a Conference Call and i asked him about it. Theres an investigation going to me, listen if hes innocent thats fine but to go after somebody that might be suspended for Domestic Violence its kind of shocking to me that you would want to touch somebody like that. Im quite frankly surprised. We will see all outplays out but it sounds to me as if they know somethings going to happen in terms of some kind of suspension. That is what brian said on a Conference Call. Ernie what about the jets patriots game . Russ first of all kudos to the jets. They outplayed them yesterday. They won the game 2620 now for time but ernie and i have to tell you this. Going into overtime they had a coin flip. You want to get the ball first in overtime. That is simply common sense. Build telecheck chose not to take the ball. The ball. He is arguably the best coach of all times. I would say this, that todd bowles made that call or rex ryan or the predecessor or tom coughlin made that call they have all would then rosie. Thats what you happens when you have a bunch of super bowl champions but it was the call it seemed that the best part of it the jets one. If they win sunday they are going to buffalo against rex ryan. Ernie thank you. Legendary Harlem Globetrotters meadowlark woman has died. A sad story.
