We've got some ugly stuff knocking on the door. Absolutely. So we've been dealing with the cold for the last couple of days, Joe and now we're looking to warm a little bit, but with that warmth, it comes some stormy conditions. Unfortunately, folks, so getting straight into what we are gonna be expecting, we are in storm watch because you know what we need to know is that Sunday is gonna be pretty nasty for us, Friday though. Not bad. It's gonna be warmer temperatures in the upper forties, Saturday still dry and then we're back to the fifties Sunday. However, it's gonna be near 60 degrees and we're looking for that storm system to move in and it's gonna be impacting our Monday morning as well. We'll get to those details in a few moments, but Hanukkah begins tonight this evening for us and we're looking at temperatures to be in the middle to lower thirties and overnight to around 30 degrees is where we are expecting our low to be as we roll into the overnight hours. So, otherwise, hopefully you have a happy Hanukkah, but we are looking for things to stay dry for us. A couple of flurries over towards the east end, but nevertheless, not looking for much issues as we get into the rest of our Thursday night, take a look at the next 12 hours in itself. Again, staying clear for the most part in our skies, temperatures will start off on our Friday morning into the middle thirties. So you're definitely gonna need that coat and just wanna bundle up. So it's gonna feel cold once we start, but it will improve as we get into our Friday afternoon, upper forties, as I mentioned, Saturday is gonna be pretty mild as well. Middle fifties around this time of year. We're into the middle forties, what our typical seasonal temperatures are so Saturday and Sunday in itself, it's going to be really nice for us in terms of surface temperatures, but then we're looking forward to stormy conditions heading into our Sunday. Otherwise, again, it's going to be rather quiet, but we are gonna be monitoring the storm system rolling in for a Sunday evening around dinner time. That's gonna carry into our Monday morning, which is why we have our storm watch for Sunday night into our Monday morning. And then the following week back to the seasonal temperatures.

Nearly 20 Long Island restaurants offer specials for Oyster Week

1010oyster

For the first time ever. Some Long Island restaurants are celebrating Oyster Week. It is the week leading up to the Oyster Festival this weekend. And I got a sneak peek at some of the deals being offered at local restaurants as awful as they look, you have to eat an oyster. It's Oyster Week and it's Long Island. I couldn't put it more perfectly myself. For the rest of the week, nearly 20 restaurants are offering oyster specials sourced from local oyster farms specials range from dollar oysters, oyster appetizers and oyster entrees. We have an entirely different menu for oysters, separate from our regular menu and there's lots to choose from on there from fried oysters to oysters. Rockefeller. You name it. We've got it. So if you love oysters, this is the place to be snapper in where else? For a list of all the participating restaurants. Again, there's about 20 of them head to News 12 dot com there. You can also find information on this week's Oyster Fest News. 12 will have a tent there. Many of us will be there to celebrate and yes, he said it perfectly, Jim from the Snapper in. Although they look kind of gross and slimy. You gotta do it. But they're good. It's Long Island. Oh, they're absolutely great. Delicious.
