With storm watch team, neurologist Alex Calamia. Alex. Do you do the Spotify? Unwrapped or you? Apple music replay? I do have a Spotify. I did not realize that we were already at this point in the year. It comes up so quick and I mean, that's why it feels so cold. I know. I know it's true. The weather is reminding us that. Yes, winter time is around the corner. We are chilly all the way through tomorrow morning and we are dry all day. Thursday. So Thursday actually looks pretty decent in the afternoon because temperatures rebound. But the rest of today is cold, cold, cold Friday. We're talking about rain. It's cloudy for the first half of the day and then kind of sprinkles, light showers for the evening time. It's nothing really too significant but it could get you a little wet at times and same for the weekend. It's generally a cloudy weekend. And if you have plans Saturday or Sunday evening, there will be a little bit of rain in the mix too. We're stuck in the thirties though, for the rest of today. There's no novelty snow flakes like we saw yesterday. It's too dry for that today. Temperatures are, you know, pretty similar, but the wind is not as bad today. So that helps. But it does feel like basically 30 degrees all afternoon and it feels like twenties for your Thursday morning. So this is what you're waking up to as far as wind chill goes. I'll show you the temperatures in a second, but the wind chill is what you want to pay attention to tomorrow. Still a bit of a breeze. In the afternoon, we have lots of sunshine. Highs are in the mid, upper forties, but it feels like lower forties. So that's kind of important to keep in mind you'll need the heavy jacket this evening. And tonight, actual temperatures are close to freezing this morning. It was 27 in Central Park and that was the coldest we've been since February 25th. So it's an improvement tomorrow, but not much. And then on Friday, it's going to be similar temperatures, but we've got some rain to talk about. You see, in the morning it's dry on Friday, but in the afternoon we tracking a few showers, lunchtime, very light shower chance. And then the evening commute the second half of the evening commute, especially dinner time or so, we'll see a few passing showers or maybe even a downpour, but it's pretty brief. Saturday morning should be dry. Saturday afternoon, enough cloud cover to bring in a stray shower chance, but we're keeping an eye over a 10 day for now. Sunday, that rain risk is a little bit higher in the afternoon and evening temperatures are back in the forties and fifties.

Meteorologist Addison Green back now with a look ahead to milder days, my friend. Yeah, we're not talking though, Kevin, like, break out the shorts though, so I gotta keep us still back in the closet. But we'll get the chance for maybe dealing with temperatures running a little bit better, more appropriate for this time of the year because the past few days have been a little bit more winter like than fall. Like after all, we are still in the middle of going through these fall days. Now go through your day on Thursday. It's gonna be getting a little bit better out there. Temperatures moving upward. They'll continue to move upward for your day on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. But we do have a deal of rain chances also on the rise. But you can certainly see over the next several mornings where we have been feeling that really big chill in the air. Thursday morning, temperatures around mid-twenties feeling about 20 degrees Friday, mid thirties feeling about 30 degrees and then by Saturday, 41 feeling close to that. So yeah, we're moving those numbers in a positive direction through your future cast. We go towards eight o'clock, 30 degrees in Poughkeepsie feels like 23 white way, same thing for you and then towards the 10 o'clock hour watching those numbers kind of still hanging around that same area towards Thursday morning. Though, temperatures around say Yorktown Heights been about 24 degrees go down towards around 29. Not bad. A little bit chilly out there to the Middletown area. Then by Thursday afternoon, temperatures certainly looking to be moving in a positive direction. Lots of locations feeling like the upper thirties. Now for Friday, we're going to be watching a storm system moving towards the northeast and as we bring in milder air, we're also bringing in that rain shower chain. So as we displace that colder air, we're not worried about any wintry mix or snow mixed on in with those rain showers, just rain coming on down and it should be wrapping on up by the time we get in towards early Saturday morning and then we'll get a dry day through that.

LIFORECAST

The, uh, forecast and looking nice and we're warming up again. We are warming up. It's been cold. But I'm telling you if you dress warm, it's just kind of nice to get out here, taking some of that fresh air. Some of our local Long Island photographers have been getting great photos. Linda was at Fire Island Lighthouse and you can see the sky nice and clear there. But I'll tell you there is quite a good breeze by the water and it has been feeling cold, but now we're going to get a little bit of a break from the cold and the breeze. So overnight 25 degrees mostly clear that cold, but the wind isn't as bad. So it's not going to have that bite in the morning. 48 tomorrow afternoon. That's about 10 degrees warmer than what we've been seeing and it won't be as windy. It's going to be nice, sunny and seasonable. So, enjoy your day. We've had some big lake effect snow bands north and west of Long Island. Those are winding down because the wind is switching to the southwest. You see the weather is quiet across the northeast into the Ohio River Valley and around the Middle Atlantic State. So good news for us. It's clear tonight in the morning at 6 a.m. we are in the upper twenties to near 30 degrees less wind for the afternoon might be a little bit of a breeze from time to time out of the southwest. Only about 5 to 15 MPH. But at three o'clock, you make it to 45 in Montauk, 47 Glen Cove and 46 in Miller Place. So we do have that warmer feel at night, partly cloudy. And then our weather starts to change on Friday. It will be mild. We are in the fifties as early as 10 o'clock in the morning, but rain is coming in late in the day. So after four o'clock, we watch some showers. This will be a fast moving front. By about midnight, the rain moves out. Saturday is dry late Sunday. We have another batch of showers coming in and some of those showers could linger early next week. So we are back up into the fifties for the weekend. Saturday is the better day early next week. Some showers clearing late and turning a little bit cooler later in the week.

A lot like the holiday season. Hope this cold weather helping with that. And there's some Christmas trees around the city that are being lit right now. Yeah, we got the tree lighting happening this evening. So here's a look at your forecast. You know, temperatures are going to be cold in the low to mid thirties. We're going to see a few passing clouds out there, but you definitely need to layer up. This is where temperatures are going tomorrow morning. You're definitely going to still need that nice hot cup of coffee or a nice hot cup of tea just to keep you warm temperatures near 32 degrees. Still feeling like the twenties. And then by the afternoon we'll be reaching the upper forties just shy of 50 degrees, but we're going to see the sunshine all day long and the winds won't be as harsh. So that's some good news for our Thursday. Friday does feature some wet weather. Temperatures will be climbing into the low fifties, but you need to pack the umbrella during the day and even into the evening hours, Saturday, we do catch a break during the daytime and then some more wet weather to follow by Saturday night into Sunday. So the weekend won't be a washout. But your best bet to go outside will be on Saturday maybe to bring out some holiday decorations or maybe pick out your tree. But tomorrow morning still very cold. A few passing clouds. Temperatures near 32 look where temperatures are going. Tomorrow afternoon, highs in the upper forties, near 50 degrees in the Bronx sunshine all day long and the winds won't be as harsh. So it is actually gonna feel good to be outside Friday does start off dry, cool cloudy, but temperatures will be in the upper forties. Low fifties, wet weather to follow by the afternoon, lingering into the evening commute. It is going to be wet but just some nuisance showers today, it's not going to be an impactful system. Saturday again catching a break, not seeing a lot of sunshine. Temperatures will be in the low to mid f. So Saturday is actually looking like a good day to be outside. Sunday does start off dry before more wet weather pushes through Sunday night into early next week and temperatures will be chilly once again by Hanukkah. All right, hope. Thanks.

The Real Deal: How to lock in better monthly rent rate 

So welcome to this wonderful 3.5 bedroom, 1.5 bathroom, Manny Pantigo with Pantigo Group knows the New York market showing us this apartment and sharing the strategies of renters. Tenants get they become quite business savvy and they need to be as our partners at investopedia show us rental prices are up. Rental. Inflation is still pretty high compared to last year. It's starting to level off across the state of New York. When we go county to County Suffolk County seen a slight reduction in rental prices. New York City up a little bit 0.2%. Nassau County up 1.5%. And Westchester about 1.5%. The average rent in New York City right now, you're looking at around $2236 a month. So how can you lock in an apartment like this without breaking the bank? Pantigo says the renter can get crafty in what they ask for. They're suggesting, hey, what if I do a little bit of a longer rental term? Would you give me a concession? If instead of 12 months we do 15 months, would there be maybe an adjustment and in turn have them knock between three or 7% off the monthly price for locking in a longer lease. But Manny says you have to make the sale and that comes with preparation, show up, prepare, have all the, all your documentation ready so you can land your dream apartment at a good price. I'm Christy Reader and that's the real deal.
