see what temperatures like, 75 newark and belmar, same with eyes up and montauk, 78 in poughkeepsie, winds from the southeast at 3 to 12 miles per hour and winds could full of more moisture. the dewpoint in the 70s, 73 at newark, 69 in 6, partly cloudy sky in the tristate region, showers and storms not happening just yet but enough heat and humidity to get that going. once you get that warm front, cold front in the mix we could see storms firing up. chances of storms are around 30% but if you see them firing up they could get rough but from thursday into friday especially friday morning you are looking at a decent chance of showers and storms crossing through the tristate and it should try al later in the day friday. the biggest risk time is on friday. as we go through the day only a 30% chance of storms. if a fire ripped your likely to see some good downpours. high-temperature 86 this afternoon, did all the humid all the way through saturday morning and it gets better next week. a big shot out to my pal panther myfoxny.com. hypnosis. we heard all libya said it helped to lose weight.

temps look like this: 71 at newark, 74 in bridge forth and 72 in montauk. well, it depends on where you are, partly cloudy sky around the tristate region, but there will be more clouds developing and coming in from the north and is west as the cold front start toss make its move into the tristate region. there's that cold front. let's take a look at the future cast, see what the computer models are saying. other than a few quick morning showers, you're good to today, but into tonight there will be a cold front swinging on through, and that'll bring scattered showers for a short period of time. during the morning commute tomorrow, you might have a few showers, but that'll be about it. we don't expect any impressive rainfall, just a few passing showers. high temp today going up to 85 with clouds generally thickening up as the day goes on, and then the showers get going later tonight into tomorrow morning. it's going to be sticky today as well as tomorrow. high temps right around 85 for both days, then slightly cooler temperatures for the rest of the week alon

central park 80. 72 us up will. 73 montauk. dew points are higher, around the mid 60s and upper 60s here and there. be ready for it. it is summer after all and therefore, this is what we get. mainly clear skies, going to see the high pressure in control today and that means quiet conditions and a chance of a few isolated storms are popping up. sitting with us, it is typical in the summertime. it is starting to ease up a hair. a little better chance of isolated shower or storm. the front comes in on wednesday and that has a better chance of bringing in scattered showers and storms and bringing in a drop of temperatures, up until then, yeah, it is hot and humid and got good health wise. we have air quality alerts going into effect today. it is backing down headed to tomorrow. things are better, but the heat wave is coming to us today. high up the 93 degrees today. that is ten degrees warmer than normal. hot weather lasting throughout today and better after that. there is the 7 day forecast. looking good. the daily forecasts are a

here's where we stand, 78 center bart, 75 bridgeport, same in montauk, 68 in monticello and the dew points in the exact same range, lower 70s making it feel pretty aggressive and miserable around the tristate and doesn't take long to start sweating at all. he will start sweating and all-out because the body can't pull itself down. we have dewpoint change humidity levels as high as they are. as far as skies are concerned with the cloud cover it looks like a partly cloudy sky just like yesterday but there are some more showers to the west of to us, the main event king will swing through here later tonight into tomorrow but for now you are okay, probably start with mainly sunny skies, pretty much keep it that way for the early part of the day, then shower chances said picking up but later in to tomorrow morning the time stamp has the front passing by around 6:30 in the morning tomorrow morning and that doesn't look like it produces a lot but there will be potential of heavier downpours from time to time as it passes by into the afternoon it is heading out of town but we will be hung up with s

bridgeport and montauk 895 sussex. 75 monticello that was a nice day but cooler side. today starting off cooler, however, a lot of sunshine out there an it is gong to be warmer in the afternoon. 67 that is your temp central park. 64 in nuke, and 63 degrees in bridgeport not bad at all. our sky is mainly clear an sun is up u right now. so it makes for a beautiful friday morning start. high pressure is in control. that will be the case throughout the day here today. nothing coming to fuss here. that area of low pressure is eventually going to try to give us something, something for now we're fine. clear skies no big deal. tomorrow, well we've got the heat, humid try trying to work its way into the tristate region opinion we start off 8:00 in the morning with not much at all but that weak cold front tries kick up showers primarily u tomb to parking the northwest but bleeds into the tristate in ab out, we can move on through, and then going into sunday that heat and humidity with high temps close to 70 starting tomorrow. but looks like sunday you're hitting 90. today up to

one heat for the summer and looking to go to the second one 91 was the high temp at newark. 83 in montauk. even that for this time of the year is on the warm side. 77 at central park right now and mainly clear skies, winds 8 miles per hour from the southwest and a lot of moisture held up in the atmosphere once again and you are going to feel the stickiness for today and for a while. we felt it yesterday too. the temperatures in the region, 63 in syracuse. still in the 70s here. 77 central park. 76 in d.c. partly cloudy skies and more clouds down to south and some of the moisture is related to air erica and is remnants of that. it was not a storm that held together as a hurricane or a is coming up the east coast and continuing to see that happen and some of that coming to the tristate with the clouds and showers trying to push into south jersey. it is keeping us on the uncomfortable side with the heat and the humidity but the showers and storms will not be a problem. a few are trying to pop up and isolated and mainly in afternoon and mainly in the northern tier. the humidity is not going t

newark, 57 in monticello, sussex, dew points keep dropping, 54 degrees at central park, islip and montauk and a 56 in bridgeport, 55 or lower, feels very nice, mainly clear sky throughout the tristate region and beyond as a cold front came through a couple days ago, it did pop up a few showers things are quieter, drier throughout the tristate region, looks like it will be that way for awhile but we have to keep an eye on the tropics, we have erika a tropical storm with maximum sustained winds, and passing to the north of puerto rico, and in the bahamas. a strong tropical storm becomes a hurricane off the coast of florida and most forecast models bring it to the southeast atlantic region sometime early next week as a category 1 hurricane and almost wants to stall in the same vicinity maybe even making landfall near georgia or south carolina. we have to watch this closely because once you look at forecasts that far out the location can change quite a bit from day-to-day from model run to model run but so far they take it to the southeast atlantic and not so much here, looking at high pressu

into the day, we will start out with 70 at montauk. 52 monticello. 55 poughkeepsie and 53 to 55 north and west. it feels great because we have a northwest wind and we also have low humidity. for the afternoon, we are looking at the low 80s around the area. maybe even mid-80s around parts of the area. a few more clouds come in today. what happens is a storm system comes in that will stay to the south. we are on the edges of that. we will get clouds this evening and tonight across the area. there will be a low rip current risk at the beaches. one thing to note, the system goes by to the east. it will intensify. big swells and rough surf coming up for the weekend. a lot of sunshine. it will be around 85 degrees and we will look at a really nice day tomorrow. nicer to the north. we will look at this low pressure system pulling down dry air. a mixture of sun and clouds and the low sliding eastward across the area with plenty of sunshine. we will look at temperatures in the mid-80s. a few clouds, comfy. overnight 67. it will be seasonally warm tomorrow. 83, 85. friday a great start to the w

least for short period today, 77 your temperatures in for par, 35 and is a been bridgeport, 73 in montauk, right now your dewpoint a fairly high as long running mostly from 65 to 70 in many areas so the areas loaded up with moisture today but that is about to change as we head into tomorrow, that cold front there will force its way through and that will bring us not only scattered showers and storms eventually drier air as well coming up after we get beyond this afternoon, time stamp of 3:12, it sweeps through year as we head towards the evening commute so the good news for the evening commute, you will rainfall and then things look quieter, high-pressure takeover. is a's temperatures making it 86 degrees with scattered storms possible in the morning and earlier afternoon and dry skies coming at you when is a through this weekend, temperatureswise love to mid 80s. let's bring in in as and see if there are back's. juliet: we have a couple problems, car fire and accident in rockland county, northbound on the freeway exit 14 a one lane closed with that and on the southbound palisades by exit

and 58 montauk. high pressure is in control. and yeah we have clouds around the tristate region. but it is only a few. real rainmakers are back to the west of us. some over pennsylvania but this one we have to worry about hoar as it comes on through. dealing with showers and storms not for the day today but it would be to northwest. but tonight into tomorrow showers start rolling in. scattered shower and/or thunderstorms through the day. a pretty good rain out there with an inch or a little bit more coming out of this as this cold front passes by. we're a little behind about five inches behind with the rainfall this year. by anyhow here throughout the marmingt of the day with potential of isolated strong storms on heavy downpours. localized heavy storms that do pop tomorrow. but today still quiet. sunny early clouds roll in and showers get going late tonight into tomorrow morgue. lows dropping between 53 and 70. 79 tomorrow those two days on humid side but we'll see drier conditions into wednesday. thursday, friday, saturday is tomorrow. bring in christina stoffo who keeps talkin

we're holding middle 80s islip to montauk and the northwest wind is a good factor. it lowered the humidity and brought drier weather. it will back off tonight, 5, 10 miles an hour, and return out of the northwest as we head into tomorrow. the front we talked about yesterday is offshore. here's our nice dry weather. that will last through tomorrow. then we have this. a little storm center that's moving near kansas city. it still looks like it will be diving and moving to the south. the question is how far north does that real thicker cloud pattern get and how far north does the area of rain showers make it. it won't make it to the city. we talked about how the trend has been southward. there'll be sun north of town on friday. it will be great. those of you in central and southern new jersey, we can't take the shower forecast out at the moment on friday because you might get into that, maybe starting late tomorrow night. look at the highs tomorrow. 83 in the city. 82 towards -- or 92 towards raleigh. 80s towards chicago. over 100 for a lot of texas. 106 vegas and 70s
