WELCOME BACK. IT'S 9:07 NOW AND TIME FOR A CHECK OF THE WEATHER. TONY SADIKU HAS A CHECK OF THE DAY THAT IS ALREADY A BETTER DAY AND A BEAUTIFUL SATURDAY BUT SUNDAY, TONY, THINGS BEGIN TO SHIFT AND I AM CURIOUS WHEN THE RAIN YOU TEASED EARLIER WILL ARRIVE AND WHERE. DOUG AND ELAINE, IT LOOKS LIKE THE SHOWER CHANCES COULD BUILD STARTING THIS TIME TOMORROW MORNING. BUT I DON'T SEE A BIG CHANCE IN THE CITY, A BETTER CHANCE IN THE AREAS NORTH. AND A LOT OF THE DAY TOMORROW, A GOOD PORTION OF OUR AREA OR HALF OF OUR AREA WILL LOOK LIKE THIS, BRILLIANT SKIES, SUNGLASSES ON AND YOU ARE

LOVING IT, 62 AND BLUE AND THE WEST WIND DOING ITS THING AND COMFORTABLE AS TEMPERATURES GET A BOOST. NUMBERS, 60s EVERYWHERE. I MEAN, HOW MANY TIMES CAN YOU SAY THIS, THE NUMBER IN POUGHKEEPSIE IS THE SAME AS IN NEW JERSEY AND LONG ISLAND, TOO? THE DIFFERENCE TOMORROW IS THERE WILL BE AREAS NORTH OF THE CITY THAT MAY STRUGGLE TO GET INTO THE 60s BECAUSE OF EXTRA CLOUDS AND MAYBE YOU ARE DODGING SOME OF THE RAIN. NOT THE CASE NOW. THE FRONT'S GOING BY, AND IT'S PICKING UP A WIND THAT IS A BIT ON THE STIFF SIDE AT TIMES, DOUBLE-DIGITS, 14, 18, AND PACKING HIGHER GUSTS. ALL THIS

IS DOING IS USHERING IN DRIER AIR AND A WARMER WIND DIRECTION AS IT COMES DOWN THE MOUNTAIN. THAT'S WHY THE TEMPERATURES WILL BE CLIMBING, HIGHS IN THE 70s, AND TOMORROW, THE TEMPERATURES WILL DEPEND ON YOUR LOCATION. I'LL SHOW WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE. WE'LL EXPECT COOLER NUMBERS NORTH AND A BETTER SHOWER CHANCE NORTH TOO, AND AREAS SOUTH, NO SUCH THING. I MEAN, WE ARE STILL WAITING FOR THE FIRST MEASURABLE RAIN IN THE CITY. OVER FOUR INCHES IS WHAT WE HAVE TO MAKE UP TO GET BACK TO NORMAL FOR AUTUMN. THAT'S A STRUGGLE. TODAY'S DRY. I DON'T SEE ANYTHING OTHER THAN MAYBE HIGH CLOUDS.

THAT WILL FILL IN LATER TONIGHT. AND TOMORROW MORNING, NOW WE ARE STARTING TO PICK UP SOME OF THE SHOWERS AND AGAIN, NOTICE THE LOCATION. THAT'S WHAT MATTERS HERE. SO BASICALLY, HUDSON VALLEY, I WOULD SAY LIKE ORANGE COUNTY UP TOWARDS SULLIVAN ALSO. EVERYTHING'S LIGHT INITIALLY. THERE COULD BE STEADIER BOUTS OF RAIN, SOME OF IT ON THE MODERATE SIDE BUT THE QUESTION IS HOW FAR SOUTH DOES SOME OF THIS MAKE IT? I REALLY DON'T SEE A DECENT CHANCE OF SHOWERS IN THE CITY DURING THE DAY. THE BETTER CHANCE IS IN THE EVENING AND OVERNIGHT ONCE WE GET THE FRONT MOVE THROUGH. OVERALL, IT'S NOT A WET WEEKEND, JUST BE PREPARED IF YOU LIVE NORTH

OF THE STATE. HIGHS TODAY, MID TO UPPER 70s FOR THE CITY ON SOUTH. YOU'LL GET TO THE CITY IN ANDOVER AND COULD GET THERE IN POUGHKEEPSIE AND BRIDGEPORT AS WELL, AND TOMORROW, THE TEMPERATURES COULD STRUGGLE. IT'S A FUNCTION OF THE CLOUDS AND OFF-AND-ON SHOWERS WHERE THE BOUNDARY SETS UP. IT'S NOT IMPOSSIBLE NOW IF YOU LIVE IN SOME OF THE AREAS YOU COULD GET TO 70. SOME MODELS ARE INDICATING THAT THE LINE IS MAYBE FURTHER SOUTH. SO THAT'S ONE OF THE THINGS WE'LL BE WATCHING CLOSELY TOMORROW. WE'LL KEEP A SLIM RAIN CHANCE IF YOU ARE HEADING TO METLIFE, GIANTS AND BENGALS TOMORROW AT

8:20. BUT OVERALL, I DON'T SEE A BIG RAIN CHANCE. IT WOULD BE INTERMITTENT, ISOLATED, AND COLUMBUS DAY, A COUPLE OF ISOLATED SHOWERS EARLY BEFORE THE COOL ARRIVES, AND MAN, IT TURNS BLUSTERY BEHIND IT WITH THE WIND DROPPING THE TEMPS, THE COOLEST OF THE SEASON. THE NUMBERS ARE 5 TO 10 BELOW NORMAL, AND YOU CAN SEE IT THERE, AND I DON'T MIND THE SUNNY AND 75 TODAY, AND I DON'T TAKE CREDIT FOR, BUT IT'S SHORT-LIVED FOR NEXT WEEK. >> WE WILL KEEP THE PLAYERS HANDY. >> DON'T PUT IT TOO FAR AWAY. >> MIGHT BE TOUGH

Saturday is shaping up to be a beautiful day with comfortable temperatures in the 60s across the area.

Sunday will bring a shift in weather, with shower chances building in the morning, particularly north of the city.

The wind will be stiff at times, with double-digit gusts expected.

Weather Update: Drier Air and Warmer Temperatures

A shift in wind direction is bringing drier air and warmer temperatures, with highs in the 70s.

The northern areas will experience cooler temperatures and a better chance of showers, while the city is still waiting for measurable rain.

The weekend is not expected to be wet, but those living north should be prepared for possible showers.

Today's highs will be in the mid to upper 70s for the city and surrounding areas.

Tomorrow's temperatures may struggle due to clouds and off-and-on showers, with some areas potentially reaching 70.

The rain chance will remain slim, especially for those heading to the Giants and Bengals game at MetLife.

There is a low chance of rain, with only intermittent and isolated showers expected on Columbus Day.

A cool front will arrive, bringing blustery winds and dropping temperatures to 5 to 10 degrees below normal.

The warm and sunny weather today will be short-lived, with a cooler forecast for next week.
