time to get you going on tuesday morning. are we done with the rain? for the most part yes. we saw solid showers and winds that kicked up, not just a few left over coming through connecticut mainly in fairfield and lynn edgefield county, patchy showers still out there but to the blessing looking pretty good, parts of long island may see a few quick hits of rain that is it and only for the next hour or so. temperatures very warm, 64 at central park, right now, 55 in sussex, very warm temperatures because the cold front coming through and warmer southerly flow ahead of and behind and we expect cool air to rhyme but it does take some time that happen. 58 in bridgeport, 61 in montauk, clouds in the area, winds coming in from the west southwest at 5 to 13 miles per hour, not a tremendous amount of wind but a decent amount and sometimes

the main cold front is pushing on by, most of the showers are well to the east of oz, a little bit leftover and backside of this but i don't think much of it holds together as drier air should work its way into the tristate region as time goes on the job done complete the? there's a small risk of a few light showers this morning but things will be drying out as the area of low pressure drives uncle drier air on the backside of the front and that is happening during the day today into tomorrow, a lot of sunshine with cooler high-temperature but this guy right here is the next one lining up, won't be here wednesday but by thursday, not here in the morning thursday but it is here later in the day with a pretty solid rain at that time said today it is going to be on the dry side, temperatures trying to creep up a bit and not doing much today, high temperature in the afternoon 62 degrees but basically that is where we are now, cooler air does eventually make its come

to skip out on tolls, the agency wants to suspend registrations of vehicles that evade payments, the and the bridges and tunnels committee approved those regulations last night, the full m.t.a. board is scheduled to consider that matter to oh. 45 a public common period on this proposed regulation ends on january 4th. ben: look at this. surveillance video out of oklahoma, a truck slamming into a hotel lobby late last week just barely missing two employees you see there behind the desk. apparently the driver of a pickup wasn't happy about his final bills the decided to barrel through the entrance on purpose nearly killing those two. he is charged -- see him get out. kind of an old crankier guide. charged with assault and felony, malicious injury. ball. oh my -- i mean.

keep their season alive. despite the moves last night. ben: duke has highlights coming up. that sound. like nails on a chalkboard. but listen to this: (family talking) that's a different kind of sound. the sound of the weekend. unleash the power of dough. give it a pop. it's always worth remembering... that icing the cinnamon rolls is a privilege not a right. unleash the power of dough. give it a pop. i only buy solid gold staples. because, um, sometimes regular staples, they just don't capture the richness of what you're stapling. like, um, like this illuminated

and this original sketch by leonardo da vincis. eh, separate they're fine... (vo) a new york man buys $80 gold staples to staple expensive things. see the gold staple, it just looks right. probably worth more now. (vo) you'd make a way better rich person. lotto. making more new yorkers

>> look at what is going on with temperatures, this is the last of the warm stuff. you have to get out early if you want to enjoy it. 64 central park, 63 in glen cove, 16 stony brook, same in brentwood, warm temperatures this morning are all ahead of the actual cold air behind the cold front which is working its way through the tristate region. you see the main liner showers that came through with gusty winds/night but once it got out of here turned a little more scattered in terms of rainfall and we expect the rain to break a more so. for the most part it is done. high temperature basically where we are, lower 60s, more rain coming at you but not till thursday. ben: look who is here. shared a headline with juliet. duke: i state too late watching

it was a great game. monday night football, a losing streak, taking on miami dolphins, eli manning absolutely sensational in this game. this was great, big blue down 24-17, eli manning rolls out, beckham tries to get his feet down, originally meant ruled an incomplete but take another look, somehow he kept his feet in bounds, maintained control of the ball, was in love locker room, and shortly before this catch and the touchdown, giants tied the game of the 24 ivan 4, beckham led, the lie talked to him about let's try to run this plan earlier in the day. manning finding 84 yard touchdown, 166 yards, sixth straight game with 100 yards, tom coughlin on the dolphins' drive taken up by domenic

ok, dolphins need to stop with the third-down but manning heads jr. giants went 31-24. >> a solid game for our guys, disappointed in the one turnover, disappointed in the fact we didn't get more but it is good to win and it does keep us alive. >> it was a big win, also for the fact that it came in on the fourth quarter and we had to make some plays and had a 4 minute drive at the end where we had to get the first down to keep the ball and we did that. duke: coach coughlin pulled a hamstring on the sideline and giants went on to win the super bowl around this time, they got hot so who knows? the giants in a three way tie on top of the nfc east, the dolphins get mathematically eliminated, franchise record,

afc east, as for the jets, a-5, they currently hold the final playoff spot but they are hardly on solid footing, kansas city and pittsburgh have the same record and if all three when making the 11-5 the jets would be on the outside looking in because the tiebreaker is one of those years, the afc so good, look at the nfc east. they cannot control their own destiny. not a good night for the brooklyn gnats. the orlando magic at barkley's, martin brown makes it in the lead. third quarter orlando turns it on. slams at home right there, getting the baseline shot and andrew nicholson with a highlight of his uncle a big jam, 105-82 the final score, major-league baseball once again upheld a lifetime ban on

baseball commissioner rod manford in 4 rows of the decision both verbally and in writing, rose's baseball time hit me was banned from the us for 1989 for gambling, was accused of wagering on games and managing for the cincinnati reds, rose submitted a formal request to have lifetime ban lifted earlier this year. >> reporter: serena williams fourth illustrated person of the year, first female athlete honored on her own by the magazine in more than 30 years, and a great year coming within two matches of tennis's first grand slam since 1988 mary decker the last female athlete to reward by herself in 1983. that is terrific.
