Just Alan knows if we got some rain headed our way for this first day of December. Yeah, not a lot, but enough that it's going to cause a little bit of an inconvenience there for the evening commute. Take a look at the exact timing here, hour by hour. You're going to notice that the odds go up after three o'clock. So for that evening commute, 456, you're going to see some of these showers could be that little bit of a steadier burst here 6 to 7 p.m. and then it tails off by nine o'clock. We're pretty much done with the rain. That's good. But then for the weekend, maybe not the best looking weekend, but salvaging Saturday, Saturday, how about 60? I'm pushing up the high because I have a feeling we're going to get a couple of peaks of sunshine and that's going to allow the temperatures to soar enjoy tomorrow outside while you can because the rain returns on Sunday, it will also be cooler. It'll be a little bit on the dreary side. So let's take a look at that Sunday future cast because Saturday, I don't have much to show you because it's going to be dry. It's going to be a mix of sun and clouds for Sunday. However sure it starts off dry at about 7 a.m. But we're going to notice showers moving in from the south and west by the afternoon. Here we go by 11 a.m. Brunch plans move them inside because there will already be showers. This looks to be a little bit steadier of a rain compared to today's rain. Notice already some of the yellows on the feature cast around two o'clock. Then later on into the afternoon, even some orange, around 4 to 5 o'clock, there's a pocket of moderate to maybe heavy rain. That's possible that's going to move quickly through. So by the evening hours things start tapering off and Monday morning, we might have a lingering shower or two. But aside from that, we're pretty much smooth sailing, aside from today's showers and Sunday showers, I have that yellow highlight just so that, you know, that Sunday looks to be a little bit messy, messy Sunday, but Saturday is beautiful. Ok. I guess we got to take what we can get, salvage a little bit of the, it's better than the teens.

Cats and dogs. They didn't even need to use one of the. Yeah, there you go. All right. Now, let's talk about a little bit more on that. And I heard your transition too, Lisa. It's not raining cats and dogs if you want to go back to that is better. Uh, me too, but we all heard it as we talk about our Friday forecast on this December 1st. Everybody, we're looking at a dry start to the day. Nothing you have to worry about through the morning, commute. Still dark and early sunrise right at seven o'clock on the day. This morning. It is a cold start in spots right now. Close to 40 or so. Not awful for this time of day. This time of the year in Harrison, 3940 in Port Chester to 42 in Yonkers. 29 though north into northern Westchester and Sommers at the moment. 32 in New City, 24 in Middletown. You get it, it's a chilly to even cold start north and west. It's a little bit better feeling closer to the Sound shore ride down. It is completely dry on live Doppler radar. Now, as we widen out the view a little bit though. You'll see some rain already moving through Ohio, West Virginia. This is all going to be heading in our direction, but at a much weaker state by the time it reaches us. So here's how the future cast plays out. Expect increasing clouds through the morning. Temperatures will be in the upper forties to near 50 into the afternoon. Cloudy skies will give way to a few spotty rain showers after around one or two o'clock this afternoon. And you could run into a couple of these light rain showers through about six or seven this evening, but it's not raining during that entire time. These are off and on showers fairly low impact weather, but just be prepared to get wet at times as we go throughout the afternoon and early evening. As we go throughout overnight tonight, mostly cloudy skies, there will be a few breaks of sunshine as we go throughout tomorrow morning, but expect more clouds than sun on Saturday, temperatures actually jump well into the fifties. It will feel quite nice for this time of the year tomorrow. But then we our track some rain moving in for Sunday could even be a spotty showers as early as Saturday evening. But as we go throughout the day on Sunday, during the early morning hours likely, ok. But into the afternoon and evening, we can get a period of some moderate rain across the entire lower Hudson valley, perhaps around a half inch or so of rain. So we want to keep an eye on that today, kind of an eye roll just because the second half of the day goes downhill a little bit but not awful. Not a wash out, just a few spotty showers during the afternoon and early evening. Overnight. Tonight, those showers done with before seven o'clock this evening. Then just mostly cloudy chilly lows in the upper thirties to near 40. Here's the extended, so Sunday, we are keeping an eye on just for some periods of moderate rain. The better half of the weekend, easily tomorrow, mostly cloudy to partly sunny Monday, breezy near 50 but it does turn a bit colder throughout next week, especially for Wednesday and Thursday with highs only around 40 degrees before those temperatures start to come up Friday and into next weekend back in the upper forties to near 50.

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.
