STORM WATCH: Bronx faces chilly rainfall impacting the morning commute

We're on Stormwatch. I'm meteorologist Hope Esalca, and here's what you need to know. We are forecasting gusty winds, soaking rain, and plunging temperatures over the next couple of days. Now, what you can expect this afternoon, some periods of moderate to heavy rainfall. Can rule out a gust of, well, a rumble of thunder, excuse me. And then by tomorrow, the rain is much lighter, but you can even rule out some wet snowflakes mixing in just north of our area. Across the borough, primarily this. Just that chilly rain, some gusty winds, and thankfully the weekend will be drier, but the coldest air of the season so far is heading our way. You need to brace yourself for feel-like temperatures in the 30s. Before we get there, we're dealing with this storm. We are seeing some heavy rainfall off to our west. We'll be pushing east. We're already noticing the wind starting to pick up, coming in anywhere between 15 to 25 miles per hour. We'll gradually pick up as the storm gets closer to us. So more saying it, we're. We're seeing some moderate to heavy rainfall this afternoon, with the worst of the storm being after 3 p.m. and lasting into your evening commute. Temperatures tonight, rapidly falling. We're seeing it in the low 40s, right around 41 degrees in Norwood, 43 in Parkchester, 44 in Mott Haven. So let's take you through that futurecast hour by hour. Again, around your evening commute, you are dealing with that soaking rainfall, gusty winds, ponding, pooling on area roadways. I will give you a closer look at the timing coming up.
