Rizzo, at least for the most part, Mike. We're dry here again today. Yeah, we're dry here today and we're dry for the most part until the weekend, you know, Sunday night into Monday, maybe something's coming through. And I think it's more likely that something is by that time. But hey, we got a couple of days to work out the details and I promise by the end of the week, we'll have some more understanding of when it's coming and what exactly it is. But right now, I do know it's rain. So that's all I kind of know as we head into the weekend. So future cast for the term calls are just building clouds today. By 230 this afternoon, you'll see a deck of clouds across the state. It's actually not going to be a bad deal. Overnight. Clouds continue to pass through, maybe a rope sprinkled, but many of us will be sleeping when that happens by tomorrow morning, it's actually going to be cold, 35 degrees, passing clouds, some breaks of sun. Really. Not a bad day. Tomorrow, there's going to be some weak energy in the upper atmosphere that could spark a rogue flurry, maybe a Sprinkle. Warren, Morris Sussex counties. Not a big, most people probably not even going to see them, but there's that chance and more or less temperatures in the lower forties probably means that it's going to be rain or like a little Sprinkle. Right. Not rain but a Sprinkle. So, just be aware of that for Wednesday afternoon. I don't think it's going to be much of an issue. Breaks of sun, mostly cloudy out of, of things are just pretty steady and into Wednesday. Now come Thursday, there was going to be another piece of energy generally over the west is going to be over Pennsylvania mostly. But for us, we're just going to seeing temperatures in the low forties, breaks of sun, mostly cloudy conditions and South Jersey, uh that's Burlington County and South probably going to be dealing with a, a quick little like a Sprinkle or a shower as it had toward a Thursday night. Otherwise the rest of us are going to be dealing with quiet weather into Fridays. The sun emerges out and then as we get into the weekend, that's where we're going to be watching for Sunday. 10 day forecast highlights our temperatures kind of moving up into Friday and Saturday with sunshine temperatures in the fifties. If we take a look at Sunday, I do want you to note that there will be rain at some point on Sunday as a passing front comes through, it's gonna kick in some winds, it's gonna kick in some rain and this is likely going to happen toward the evening. Now, the good news is that it's not cold enough to support any kind of snow. Temperature is going to be near 56 degrees. So do keep in mind that it's likely just the rain as we head into the second half of the weekend and early next week looks windy, but temperatures come back down into the forties.
