Rizzo is here any flakes in the forecast? No flakes today. But we were talking about that yesterday. A little mood flake that would pass by randomly across the state. A lot of areas saw flakes even for like five minutes or so at times, but others saw it a little bit longer. Right? So here's what you need to know about today. Five things very important, sharp wind chills. It's important to dress in layers, limit your time exposed to the cold outside the sunshine today will actually help you be better by tomorrow with the rebound of those temperatures. I want to teach you a new weather word if you didn't know this word already, it's called Op Preity. Op Preity is the warmth of the winter sun. So I know it's not winter, but you know, when it's like a cold day today, it just feels nasty and then you go outside in the afternoon and it's sunny and you feel that, oh, you know, it's cold but it feels much better. That feeling is called Ric, right? So that's what we're gonna feel a little bit later on this for those who hate the cold. This is something that I look forward to. But hey, if you didn't know you learned something new this. So, so New Jersey, let's take a look at the bitter blast condition. So it feels frigid, it feels sharp today, right? And this disrespectful cold does go away by tomorrow where the weather is going to give us much more respect tomorrow by the afternoon, layers are important because of the wind chill. So the wind will pierce through some clothes. So just make sure you wear the windproof clothing and it will be gusts. West winds 15 to 25 MPH rebounding tomorrow with warmer temperatures and the wind chill as well. It'll be cold again tomorrow morning, but then it feels so much better by the afternoon as high temperatures push close to about 50 degrees across the state. So with Thursday's high, real good, mostly sunny conditions accompany that south westerly winds allow warmer weather to come through. Relatively speaking. Right? And that planner shows that conditions are nice for Thursday with sunshine and calm weather. What happens since Friday? Not much? We do have temperatures back into the forties around 44 in Morristown and the shore down toward 50 to 53. Look Tom's River 53. It's not a bad day, but I want you to be aware, a quick round of showers comes through between four pm and midnight on Friday. And that is very brief. It's a nuisance. It's nothing that's going to be problem. And then Saturday we have a mostly cloudy sky. So just be aware of that, please. Here's that 10 day forecast. I want to highlight Friday for you one more time. As you can see that we end up with some scattered showers across the state of New Jersey from Friday from 4 to 11 p.m. maybe near midnight ending and it's quick. It's just nuisance. It's nothing that is going to be a problem, Mike. Thank you.

In terms of the weather for that tree lighting to be cold, feels like temperatures, they're going to be in the twenties. So I know layers is always recommended but add an extra thermal layer or two or three because it's going to be blustery. It's going to be cold. Again, these wind gusts not as high as yesterday, but this is enough to make it feel extra cold out there. Again, about 20 MPH gusts into the afternoon and these will continue into the evening as well. That'll make it feels like temperatures quite a bit colder. So later on this morning, even in the next hour or so again, it feels like temperatures no matter where you are 20 or below if you want to pack your lunch right now before you head out the door. So you don't have to be outside an extra bit. That's a recommendation from me because take a look at lunchtime, this is at 12 noon. Feels like temperatures Bay Ridge, 27 Park Slope, same deal Bushwick as well. 27 Sheepshead Bay and Coney Island 27. So it's going to be a cold afternoon, pretty cold evening. As well. So this is at 8 p.m. right before the tree lighting. And again in Manhattan, pretty much same deal, middle and upper twenties for the fields like temperatures 26 for Flatlands, 27 for Bushwick 27 for winds will slowly subside throughout the overnight hours and the temperatures are not going to be as cold tomorrow morning. I'd still classify it as cold but not bitterly cold. So it feels like temperatures out the door. Tomorrow will not be in the teens. There'll be about 26 for Williamsburg, 26 for Bay Ridge, 24 for Flatland. So not as bad and the improvements really get going into the afternoon. Lots of sunshine just started about 32 and we get up well into the forties. So improvements much milder definitely will make it feel better out and about for the afternoon hours getting up to about 47 degrees for the afternoon. But with this warm weather, we see the clouds on the increase and then here comes some showers into the afternoon for Friday. So it's going to be a wet finish to the work week. And after three o'clock expect some more of the showers could be a little bit heavier at times for the evening commute. So definitely keep that in mind for late Friday as well as Friday evening plans weekend. Not too bad, but a little bit more rain late Sunday. All right, Alan, thank you.

Rules back to this bitter blast and hopefully not back to it for too much longer. Matt Hammer is here with details on your Wednesday. Yeah. No, through about mid-morning tomorrow and then a much improved weather into the afternoon tomorrow. I mean, today looks great. We have a lot of sunshine this morning giving way to more of a mix of sun and clouds during the afternoon hours today. In fact, at times more clouds and sun by the afternoon, but it's certainly a very cold feel, but you can get out and about and enjoy this as long as you are addressed appropriately and you have to dress for temperatures that are in the middle and upper twenties in terms of what they feel like outside the actual air temperatures on the left hand side of this map in the thirties tomorrow though, middle and upper forties for the air temperature, much better what to wear today. It's all about the winter gear, still, whatever you dressed in yesterday. And if you were comfortable in it, do it again, if you were not as warm feeling as you wanted to feel yesterday, add an extra layer today, middle thirties again, feel like the twenties. It's breezy. It's dry at times more clouds and sun this afternoon and this evening and later on tonight it's partly cloudy. It's dry. It is just one more really cold night with lows in the low twenties. I can feel like the upper teens to low twenties into tomorrow morning. Tomorrow's highs though much more seasonable. The normal average high this time of the year is right. It's 47. So it'll be close to that all throughout the Hudson Valley under a lot of sunshine tomorrow. And then Friday, you will need to plan on a wet second half of the day on Friday. No flooding expected no high rain totals here, but there will be some nuisance rain showers, no time on Friday and those will be on and off through about six or seven in the evening on Friday. Once we get past that Saturday, mostly cloudy upper forties, there can be a spotty shower or two but nothing major on Sunday. Better chance for a couple of rain showers Monday of next week. If anything, a stray shower next Tuesday and then back to dry weather Wednesday through Friday of next week with highs mostly in the forties.

LIFORECAST

Something homemade. It's much appreciated, happy holidays, everyone. I'm Janice Lieberman and that's the real deal. All right, thanks to inflation, you will have to pay more for those turtle doves and partridge in a pear tree. The PNC Christmas price index measures the gifts included in the holiday classic, the 12 days of Christmas. Now, the research suggests the cost has now hit a record high because of inflation. They find the pear tree is going to cost 15% more. This Christmas, the price of the partridge did not change. I'm sure the five golden rings didn't have anything to do with it. I was just thinking about, I was going through the list, my golden rings. I wonder what lords are leaving, how much they cost this time of year. And you know, I really realized that we are in the holiday spirit when we saw the flurries yesterday. Yeah, you know, it's that time of year and you know, Thanksgiving was so early this year, next year, it's the 28th. So we're looking at a big change there. We have extra time this year to get into the Holiday Spirit and we had the festive flakes yesterday. A couple of snow shoes, hours flurries and a few squalls yesterday. And now the sunshine, dry, cold weather conditions around the island out there for today. Sunny skies over towards Riverhead as well. Going throughout the day, our friends in Brentwood sunshine this morning, some clouds come in during the afternoon. But notice those hour by hour temperatures only in the upper thirties, you got to have, uh, the gloves, a hat and a scarf, especially if you're going to be working outside all day long. It's been a dry rush for the day. We're going to be looking at some quiet weather through this evening and quiet Nassau County. Seven County, you're looking ok for today. Again, the big story, everyone's talking about the chill, the wind that is just going right through you. So you dress in layers. Now, during our afternoon hours, 345 kids coming home from school running some errands ss are in the mid thirties. Now, one thing I want you to notice you see these arrows, that's our wind direction. Wind is always the direction it's coming from. So this is a west southwest wind and that is indicative of some warmer weather on the way. So overnight, not as cold, we have a dry evening rush hour tomorrow morning, twenties to around 30 degrees and not as bad as a wind coming through. Then going throughout the day on Thursday, mid to upper forties, dry weather. Now, temperatures on Friday, get into the fifties, but a lot more clouds moving on through. Take a look at our weather map. Friday morning. We're in the mid and upper forties here. Then the clouds come in low fifties for highs, showers late in the day. Towards the evening hours. We'll have the wet weather and gone very quickly into your Saturday highs today in the thirties, it is cold for today. Tonight, twenties to around 30 degrees and take a look at the extended forecast. We start our warm up on Thursday, rain Friday afternoon through Friday evening, more rain, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. Thanks for.

Letting you know, you have to bundle up for it. Oh, it's going to be super cold out there but dry though, right? Any sort of rain or snow because I know we had those festive flakes yesterday. But listen, it's going to be layers upon layers. If we're heading out towards the Rockefeller center tree lighting tonight, the winds are also going to be blustery, which is why it's going to feel colder than what the thermometer says. Wind gust forecast pretty much. You're seeing those 15 to 25 mile per hour into the lighter morning and the afternoon hours. So the wind's not going anywhere anytime soon. At least not today. It's gonna make it feel quite a bit colder. So later on this morning again, it feels like temperatures teens to around 20 not much of an improvement this afternoon. So heading out for lunch, maybe pack that lunch though right now before you head out the door. So you don't have to be outside an extra bit longer because take a look at 27 degrees that feels like temperature for Bathgate as well as more Sanny at 26 for Mott Haven 26. For Colum Bay feels like temperature at around noon today into the afternoon and evening. We'll see a little bit of an improvement, but again, twenties more or less. Will we feel like temperatures again? 23 for Park Chester and North Bay Chester at about eight o'clock this evening into the overnight hours. We'll see those temperatures stumble again but not as cold as this morning. This morning is going to be the coldest morning tomorrow, not as cold but still bundle up because it feels like temperatures 23 26 20 three. It's still going to be a cold start. Tomorrow morning, improvements begin into the afternoon as the sunshine comes up, the wind changes direction to more of a southerly wind and that's a milder wind. So the temperatures are going to start off near freezing tomorrow into the afternoon, get up into the middle, maybe even upper 40. So hour by hour, you could see us getting up to about 47 to 48 degrees into the afternoon. The next weather story is actually going to be rain on the way for Friday afternoon. It starts off north and west, but I think by about two or three P ma couple of showers are possible and then likely for the evening commute. There's going to be a little bit of an issue though for Friday evening's commute, maybe make a little bit earlier of a get away there Friday afternoon and then the weekend is looking ok for now, the big, the big thing here is that it will be near 50 degrees. We enjoy that. Ok. So that's the plus side there, back to some normal t rain with that. All right, Alan, thank you one a few minutes.

All right, let's get a check of the forecast because it is cold outside this morning, John, I need the big coats. You need to layer up the hat even. Certainly dog walkers kids waiting for the bus. It's gonna be a little bit of a deuce of the big time. We got about 22 more days until the official start of winter. So a little bit of a taste of it for today. Numbers tapping out in the mid to upper thirties, it's gonna continue to feel like the twenties with that wind chill and just wanna bring up our wind chill chart, sustained winds about 5 to 10 MPH for right now with, I guess you can say maybe 30 degree temperatures, you're feeling like the lower to mid twenties for us right now. Now, some of these gusts when we talk about wind could reach 20 to 25. So that's why some spots were feeling like the teens as we continue to push through this morning. Now, Futurecast takes us into this afternoon. Lots of sunshine numbers into the lower to mid thirties. But again, a lot of us will feel a little bit chillier. It's cold again for tonight. So make sure you got the window shut and the heat going tomorrow is gonna be another chilly start. Not quite as cold though. So that's the good news and we're continuing to stay dry because unfortunately we do have some rain in the forecast. Here's a look at tomorrow afternoon a little bit better with those temperatures into the forties. 44 for those out toward Bridgeport, 42 for Greenwich Friday morning. Not all too bad. Still working with some sunshine. Numbers are in the forties. A lot better start, but it's not gonna be the best finish. Why we do have rain in the mix. We're looking at showers for the early parts of your afternoon. Bit of a break, late afternoon, then driving into your evening is where we're gonna see those showers. Really start to pick up and you're looking at a little bit more of some steady rain. Rain wraps up just in time for the weekend. Saturday looks pretty dry. Sunday looks like we're looking at a chance for some more showers as we head into early next week as well.

Fitness in Four Minutes: Simple stretches to improve your posture and mobility

Time for fitness and four and guess what? You don't need to become a Yogi to have better posture. All you need is some simple stretches to improve it. That's right. So we headed to Equinox to get some basic moves that we can do at home for better posture and better mobility overall. And little by little, we'll see those results. Typically when you stretch out a client, we would go up here on the table. But for the people at home that really need to work on their flexibility, their mobility, talk me through some simple stretches that they should add into their every day. Yes. So one stretch that everyone has that could do at home or outside or anything like that and is like a standard toe touch, right? So what we do is when we, when we're toe touching, we, we go straight down. So you wanna put your feet together. Yes, exactly. And we're going straight down to our feet all the way, right. Relax the head. Keep the knee straight and go as far as you can, right? Most people can't touch their toes right. So you just do a starting point. So from here. I could touch my toes because I practice this every day. But every time as I'm coming up and then hinging forward, keeping a nice upright posture right now, what would be a mistake that somebody would make maybe to curb their spine or something? Yeah. A lot of, a lot of people start with bending their knees to touch their toes so they go all the way down here and then also is their neck. So they're straining their neck as they go down. So you just want to lax your neck, keep your knee straight. If you only go down here, that's fine. It's a good starting point. Ok. So you just come here and straight up, right? OK. And the next one that I want to do is kind of working on that side to side a side bend, right? So the side bend is good to start with the open up the Q L, the, the lower back muscle, right? So we're just going straight to the side, to the side just like that. And if I have a little more mobility and this is too easy in that arm, so my opposing arm is gonna come over. Yeah. Yeah, just like that. And now how many of these would I do? You can start with 10 each, each uh exercise stretch. Yeah. All right. And then last we're gonna work on getting your shoulders back, get our posture up and proud. Yeah. So we could just do uh arm raises. So we're just going straight. So we could do start with the neutral grip and we're just coming straight up, try to get it overhead. If you have only range of motion here, that's something we need to work on. Right. So you should notice like just go to your end range, take a deep breath, exhale and just go down right. And then you change the angle, You get super neat and perate the hand. So we could start with a pronated position that's coming up in hell exhale. And then you could just do pronated coming up and then maybe take it on an angle. Yeah, you could change it, change the angle. So if you don't have the mobility to go straight, you just come on an angle, right? Just like that, get moving, have some better posture. I like it. Thanks Michael. Thank you. I think trying to try all the different stretches right now. I gotta try it. No.
