cherry trees. current temperatures in new york city annapolis current temperature 37 degrees. rain wise we are having a little showers across the carolinas early this morning with the storm system that produced all of the rain yesterday is gone. mind it you will notice sunshine across the eastern half of the country. in raleigh, new york city, 70s in minneapolis well above average. high temperatures today 76 degrees. let s goh head back to you in new york. maybe take a light jacket. you are wearing yours this morning. the time is 12 after the hour.
dra steele. let me tell you on some days, new york to washington, is partly sunny skies and 81 degrees. it s a fast mover rocketing the northeast at 28 miles per hour. its center of circulation, northeast of sa van na, georgia, by about 30 miles. you can barely see on the satellite but two threats with this. one will be the heavy rain and thus the flood threat and second are the tornadoes. we do have a tornado warning already right now. i ll show you where that is. the heaviest rain, maximum sustained winds at 45 miles per hour but off the coast here where the heaviest rain bands are. that s where the strongest winds are right off the coast. here s our tornado warning. it s an eastern north carolina until 6:30 this morning. so the threats for tornadoes are there through today and through tonight. what we ve seen rain wise, you can see, 3 to 5 inches, 4 to 6 in southeast georgia. that threat, the heaviest rain
that s where we ll have severe weather today. we windy and this mess is heading for minneapolis and chicago. the big storm is now forming over the top of nebraska. if you re on the east coast, it s a chilly morning with a decent afternoon. as far as what we re dealing with severe weather-wise, this area of yellow, slight risk of severe storms. it won t be widespread, but where we to see the severe weather, we could skocould see l storms. as far as what we re dealing with rain wise, also light rain this morning from toledo to cleveland, probably one of the wettest drives out there is interstate 80 across northern ohio. forecast for the northeast after the cold start this morning, a pretty nice afternoon. slightly warmer and a few more clouds. mid-60s isn t bad for this time of year. florida could get complete rain
it s not a lot as far as cold air behind it, no snow or ice with this storm system. but it s just going to be a big storm that will sit here and spin over minnesota probably for about two days and it will send those storms and rain all the way to the east coast as we go throughout today, thursday, and even into friday morning. so on the radar, not a lot of bad weather rain wise. just light rain from fargo down into sioux falls. that will go into minneapolis today. so if we have any significant airport delay, minneapolis could have delays late today, and then as those thunderstorms head through chicago, st. louis and mississippi and memphis, we could see possible delays there. but as far as the east coast goes, it will be a nice day, with the exception being florida which will be dodging showers and storms. but another october afternoon with a chance of tornadoes. hopefully it will be all misses instead of hits. well, 14-year-olds making your iphone? a new england earthquake. and an a
