What a day.
That's all.
Take a deep breath after.
Actually, I feel like, well, look how fast
those clouds are moving, but it kind of looks
better in that shot.
It does look better.
a little brighter.
Yeah, a little brighter.
So, I mean, hey, good news there.
Exactly.
We had a fun tornado warning.
We'll take a little, every little bit we can get, we'll take it.
Right.
Yeah, absolutely.
I mean, we still have a plethora of watches and warnings in place.
We have a tornado watch in effect for parts
of Jersey until 7 o'clock tonight.
Meaning a tornado could spin up.
We're just, you know, the conditions are primed for that.
We have a couple flash flood warnings,
and that's actually new since last time we talked.
Oh, wow. Where are those?
The one is going to be actually where
that tornado warning was, in Queens County,
so southeastern New York.
And the reason why is because estimated rainfall totals
of about two inches have already fallen.
And looking at radar, there's still more rain to come,
so one to two inches of rain.
Is still possible and quickly over like a period of an hour.
Oh, my gosh.
You know, so that's that's some quick,
quick rainfall there over that area.
And the second one is going to be in areas of Jersey is New Jersey,
35 Middletown Township.
Yeah.
Route 35.
OK.
Yeah.
The Middletown area that that usually gets very heavily flooded.
OK.
It says all lanes are closed in southbound direction.
Oh, that's a big.
That's the northbound lane south of Kings Highway in.
Tyndall Road, we're also close, so that's why they have
the flash flood statement out, so there's a lot going on.
No, totally.
Totally. So what are we looking at?
Because we're going into now the afternoon,
the early evening rush hour, people leaving work,
people going wherever they have to go, doing whatever they have to do.
What's the rain going to be like, you know,
what's the, is it going to be this drenching
thing, this on again, off again thing?
What's going to, we're going to get a couple
of lulls, you know, we're going to, we're
going to get a break in between some of that rainfall, which is good.
It's not going to be like magically pretty outside,
you know, of course it'll still be
kind of gross out there, but I want you to focus on Philly,
which I know that's not our
area, but there, there's some strong storms over there,
a severe thunderstorm warning
Over Philly, that exact cell is going to be pushing toward.
And you're saying
now, are you
still sticking
to what you told
us earlier?
That's not on you.
That's on this freaking weather that's changing.
Like, you know, you snap your fingers and it's a whole different thing.
Yeah.
But the, um, but didn't I say that about New York?
You did.
You absolutely did.
Yep.
So the, like tomorrow's Friday, we're starting the weekend.
What are we, what are we looking like?
Is this going to be this on again, off again, rain thing?
Are we able to get weather live too up?
I don't know what that, what the, um, the seven day.
I don't know where that is.
I don't know.
Okay, we've got a seven-day forecast.
But if we could, that'd be...
If not, I could talk through it, but...
Yeah, that'd be really nice.
I don't know.
I don't know even what computer that's on.
That's great.
Great.
All right, so what's been happening just in general?
Yeah, I mean, in general, temperatures are going to...
Like, tomorrow is going to be kind of gross.
Forties for highs, you know?
So we're not getting out of the forties.
And then...
We'll see mid-50s return next week.
That's my glimmer of hope for sunshine.
Mid-50s and sunny.
That's actually where our temperatures should be this time of year.
It's okay.
Sorry, I'm like throwing up.
I just saw it and I was like, oh.
There you go.
But, you know, radars are our main story here.
You know, as we're tracking the rain.
So more so than our seven-day.
But we will see improvement.
Looking ahead, those clouds clearing by Sunday.
I mean, even Saturday, it's not going to be rainy and gross.
It'll just be cold.
It'll just be cold.
All right.
48 degrees Fahrenheit.
So that's good.
But tonight we should definitely carry the umbrella.
I would, yep.
Definitely be ready for these flash floods in certain areas.
Yeah, if you're in an area that, you know, is susceptible, yeah,
then you're likely going to unfortunately have those issues.
We're talking low-lying areas.
Thank you.
And really, aside from that, these storms are going
to keep moving to the northeast around 10 to 15 miles per hour.
And in that much colder air.
Coming by the weekend, I don't know, 47 tomorrow, 48.
All right, we'll make it work.
Yeah, and areas to the north, obviously not in our area,
but areas to the north could see snow.
And the good news is the tornado warning is finished.
Yes, that tornado warning
that we had over Queens County, it has since expired.
I was on X, I was looking through.
There were some very impressive videos
of the clouds just kind of being very close to the ground.
And when you see that, of course, you know that.
Typically means, you know, there could be tornadic activity.
