>> it's really fantastic. and i'm really wondering if parts of the area can hit 80 degrees on thursday. it's going to be awful close across parts of the southern new jersey. tomorrow still a transition day. this evening it's been super comfortable. the wind was a little busy earlier. it's backed off. we're at 55 right now. westerly wind around 8. our average high is only in the upper 40s. that's going to be our nighttime temperatures the next several days. there are your sunrise and sunset times. weather headlines. mid 60s tomorrow. cooler along the coast. then we get our first march 70-degree day, wednesday, thursday, first time since 2012. records certainly within reach wednesday and thursday. temperatures take a step back and then, of course, the clocks actually spring ahead this weekend. this sunday the sunset will be at 7:00 and beginning of april we have 7:30 sun sets. so that's good news. but the numbers will step back

there will be a chill in the suburb. already at 35 in carmel. winds have gone north here. i think an onshore breeze will definitely keep us in check tomorrow in the mid 50s to mid 60s, at least near the coast, then away from the coast we have a shot at getting to 70 degrees tomorrow. see how the winds have gotten a lot lighter this afternoon. if you look closely, a light northerly wind as a front is straddling the area. winds are light and variable through midday. the clouds will start to thin out. i think we're at 61 by noon and probably low to mid 60s at 4:00 but along the coast we're in the 60s. inland, 70 degrees. then partly cloudy and west southwest winds come in tomorrow night. you can see the clouds coming in. a front sitting right to the north. also a couple showers over western pennsylvania. then maybe an isolated shower that can sneak in to the area tomorrow morning. most of us just have clouds. this is the last we'll see of this in to tomorrow. then that will move away. look at all the warmth in the

the middle of the week. door. upper 30s north and west. maybe a stray shower. fair amount of clouds mixing with sun. that will be the way through the middle of the day. 50s along the coast but mid 60s inland. then i think we have more sunshine to end the day. a big temperature range. upper 40s on the twin forks. yet it can be near 70 in places like trenton and between in the low and middle 60s. by wednesday we're all going in to a southwest wind. mild morning near our normal daytime highs and temperatures off to the races. low and middle 70s during the afternoon hours, even 60-degree readings near the coast. thursday should be our warmest. there's some rain upstate. but i think we're closer to the 70s to near 80 rather than the cooler temperatures to the north. more clouds and sun as we head toward sunrise. mild for march. we're in the mid and upper 40s. partly sunny and mild tomorrow. 70, west. 50s along the coast. look for a high in the mid 60s in new york city. partly cloudy and only down to

so 74, bump these numbers up. 74 on wednesday. and then on thursday, 75. there might be a stray shower to the north. now i'm forecasting another record breaking day on thursday in the middle 70s and maybe even upper 70s to near 80, interior new jersey. clouds will break for sun on friday. it's noticeably cooler but still nice, lower 60s. 50s return overnight the weekend. might be a shower but by no means a washout. still running about 10 degrees above average. back to the 50s by then. >> i hope we break that record. >> me too. >> winter jackets away, maybe. >> they're out of here. coming up next, new concerns about the lack of a vitamin and an increased risk of ms in children. >> also to the rescue, dramatic video when an officer rushes in to a burning car and children. >> first let's check in with our pal jimmy kimmel to see who's on his show tonight. >> thanks, bill. hello, new york. naomi watts. music from sting's daughter. we tell all about the women
