STORM WATCH: Strong to severe thunderstorms today with a dramatic drop in temps this weekend in Brooklyn

And as we continue to monitor what's happening for us this morning, we are waking up with some light shower activity, but we have multiple rounds for today that are going to be bringing some wind driven storms for us across Brooklyn. So a few things to break down for us. We have two separate timelines. We have the 6 a.m. to 10 a.m., which is going to be our first round of potentially seeing some heavier downpours. But my most big concern is going to be from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. for tonight. So think your evening commute is going to be impacted for us to see not only strong, potentially seeing severe storms for us across Brooklyn. Now mainly going to see not only heavy downpours but winds that could be gusting not only between 20 to 30 miles per hour but that's just what we're going to be seeing earlier for today is the 50 miles per hour from some of these thunderstorms. Let's take a look over towards Sunset Park so we can see early for the morning hours between 7 and 8 o'clock is where we can see our first round of those storms rolling their way through and then getting closer to that 10-11 o'clock hour a couple of showers are possible but we do have that dry period that I've been talking about coming up for us later into the morning hours so walk through our future cast we can start to see this drying out closer to that noon hour throughout much of the afternoon we'll even see a bit of an opening in our skies now you may be fooled as sunshine returning temperatures rolling up but that's actually going to be leading into some instability that could create some storms developing for us that are going to be strong and potentially even severe so definitely be prepared for today to have the rain gear ready to go and your alerts on as well as we continue to monitor not only these temperatures rising but the storms that are going to be impacted this on and on but we'll have updates
