it is 27 and monticello in poughkeepsie. new york city is 42 degrees. a shift in the wind direction is coming from the southwest. that is what will bring in milder temperatures over the next several days. winds are relatively light around 10 miles per hour. will be ten-15 throughout the day. we do have clouds out there, son will break through from time to time, but for the most part it will remain mostly cloudy through the afternoon. the clouds coming in through this system is headed right in our direction. will arrive tomorrow morning and throughout tuesday with much of the action happening north of hudson valley. that wave moves out in another wave moves in on wednesday bring in rainfall across the region. as the kids head out to the best stop it will be chilly with temperatures in the 30s and 40s. mostly cloudy and 50s this afternoon. temperatures above average. tomorrow as we start up the have rain and temperatures near 60. upper 50s for wednesday and christmas day looks great. high temperature 60 degrees and wet weather returns over the weekend. le
