We're back again with, this is a star Mandy Moore talking all about the holidays. Yeah. So tell us, do you have any big plans with your family? So we have um a, a one year old now and a 2.5 year old. And I think we're just excited to like be home last year. We were traveling for work and we, we lived on the east coast for like five months and had a newborn baby with me and not being at home to sort of celebrate that first holiday season together was, it was a new experience and it was wonderful, but I'm excited to sort of hunker down here and kind of start to figure out what those traditions are going to be as a family of four and just be cozy. I mean, this is my favorite time of year. I think it's everyone's favorite time of year, but just that sense of togetherness and connectivity and connecting with friends and having dinner parties and all of that fun stuff. I'm just, I'm looking forward to everything that the holiday season is going to bring. Did you have a tradition you were growing up that you loved it. Like, you know, it's always that one thing you want to bring to your family. Like, what was my favorite tradition growing up? We had a silly one that my parents, my parents didn't have. Well, they claim they had no food in the house on Christmas Eve, their first year being married. So they had like breakfast for dinner. And that was something we did throughout our childhood. And again, it's not like a big deal, but it was so much fun. I don't know, as a kid, I was always like, yes, we get eggs for dinner, eggs and bacon. Um, so I feel like something fun like that would be, would be fun to pass on with our kids. Um, but yeah, making cookies, we're actually getting ready to move. Um, so I'm excited to kind of put down roots and feel, um, I don't know, like, figure out what our traditions are going to be in this new home and getting settled and all of that. I'm very much looking forward to this season of life. It's going to be like a nesting. Exactly. Exactly. Breakfast for dinner. That's the breakfast for dinner is the best. Any excuse for another cup of coffee too. I'm thank you so much. Thank you guys. Have a good rest of your day.

That's good, boy. All right. So our forecast going into tomorrow is gonna be filled with clouds. We are going to be dealing with an opportunity maybe for a quick little Sprinkle or maybe a flurry. But again, I mean, nothing, nothing really to worry about at all. And even if it, if, if it does happen, I'm going to be extremely, the atmosphere is very stable, but we are starting to see things cool down so it will try to squeeze out any available moisture. And if the winds are gusty enough, maybe some lake enhanced flurries try to make the trip into New Jersey. There's a system that's dropping down to our south. That's what's going to probably aid in delivering some wet weather sprinkles to the southern half of New Jersey. By tomorrow afternoon, we are going to look for temperatures to continue to drop down into the thirties for tonight. All of that under mainly cloudy skies, some of the cooler air will be up towards the north into the west in the upper twenties. The breeze will make it feel just slightly cooler out there as far as wet weather or wintry weather is concerned just based on radar right now, there might be a flurry ongoing just to the south at 287 there in Somerset County. We're not anticipating anything in the way of accumulations. It's not going to be a big deal, but we are going to be looking for this instability to stick around for tonight tomorrow and even going into Thursday and Thursday, I think would be a better opportunity to see some maybe lake and hand streamers streaking across the area. As far as the cold air is concerned, this is going to continue to move through the area very quickly. We'll more than likely see a good shot of chilly weather returning to the area. Tomorrow afternoon, daytime highs are going to be for the most part in and around the lower forties. We have lower forties on Thursday as well and then the temperatures slowly begin to rebound. Once we get back up towards Friday, Friday is going to be the best day of the week. We are going to be looking for a decent amount of sunshine with daytime, high temperatures that are going to top out for the most part in and around the lower fifties. Saturday is looking pretty good Sunday, not all that great. Looks like we're going to be dealing with a wind driven rain event and as that rain starts to sweep across the area, looks like it happens later in the afternoon, we could be looking at a decent surge of rain and some winds could be gusting to 30 maybe even 40 miles an hour up against the coastline. I'll have more details on that forecast coming up in just a little bit. Dave. Thank you goodness, gracious. Great barrels of fire next in three things to know.

Quite the operation they've got over there. Julio. Great. Look at what the post service service has to deal with. You know, what's the saying? Right? Neither rain nor sleet nor snow. That package are going to get it where it needs to go. We don't have any of that in the forecast, but for the mail carriers tomorrow and everybody else to bundle up, I guess. Yeah, the temperatures will be in the mid to upper 30 to start tomorrow and we are seeing some rain and maybe even some festive flakes in the near future. So that's something that we need prepare for as we get through the next couple of days. But 37 degrees mostly cloudy sky that puffer jacket will do you some good and some extra layers and you can grab the tins or the Uggs, some things, they just keep your feet warm because tomorrow's highs really struggle to get to the low forties. This is where we're going by tomorrow afternoon. 4 p.m. feeling like near 32 degrees across the boughs and it gets even colder, waking up on your morning. This is going to be the core of the cold we feel like temperatures will be in the mid twenties. So that's what you need to dress for Thursday morning. And even through the majority of the afternoon, we feel like temperatures will still be in the thirties. It looks like Friday. We have one more cold start to the day and then temperatures really begin to turn around. And we're seeing the fifties back by Friday and even into Saturday, which is going to be the pick of the week. Here's why temperatures will be in the mid fifties. It's gonna feel and look nice to be outside. And we're finally seeing a return of that sunshine that we haven't really been experiencing. So we're also turning the page to Sunday, which is our next day that we're tracking some wet weather. So here's what we know so far, still several days out, we're still fine tuning the timing of the system, but expect some widespread rain wind, some thunderstorms and this can start moving into our area Sunday evening into Monday.

We're gonna keep it just rain coming on down. Although you may see a flurry or two for portions of Wednesday afternoon, Thursday afternoon, but that's it, a flurry or two. We do have a pretty much substantial rain chance coming our way for Sunday. As once again, like this past weekend, we deal for split weekend, Saturday looking nicer than Sunday's time frame. And so Sunday may be along the stormy side, but Wednesday and Thursday coming on up feeling colder but staying mainly dry overnight. It's a light breeze with a continued chill in the air. Here's what we can be anticipating for Sunday. We have an area, blood pressure pushing upward in towards the northeast that allows more moisture to be pulled this way and some gusty winds will start to build on in for Sunday afternoon in through Sunday evening. Once this front passes us by, by early Monday morning, we're talking about pre dawn, we'll get some colder air to come rushing on in drier air as well. So we'll shut down that rain chance that you'll be dealing with potentially if you're out and about very early in the morning. But overnight tonight, it's mostly cloudy skies, temperatures cooling down towards the mid thirties, maybe feeling in the upper twenties and a few spots whenever you do get a light breeze to come on through. The reason why it's cloudy. Hope we got a system down towards our south and west that's heading on down towards the Mid Atlantic States. So we're not seeing any of this precipitation coming on through, but we are dealing with the cloud cover coming on in overhead. So later on tonight, 845 cloudy skies, there's that Florida too in the Catskills, same thing as you go out in towards tomorrow morning. Then by tomorrow afternoon, some sunny breaks are possible, West Point, you may see a flurry of two in towards three o'clock. And then by Wednesday evening, we're clearing out those skies temperatures though, hanging out in the low twenties and unfortunately getting a little bit colder than that. So moving on in past Wednesday into Thursday, we see our high temperatures struggling to get up into the upper thirties, Friday. Much better by comparison, upper forties. Saturday's the pick of the week. 54 degrees poly cloudy skies get out and enjoy before rainy, windy conditions arrive on Sunday.

Hopefully you can enjoy it. Check out the sunrise this morning doesn't exactly look cold, but it was a cold start to the day. Still quite a few people out on the boardwalk, enjoying the nice weather and the fresh air that was by Andre Navarro. A fantastic photo. What you can expect overnight is temperatures near 30 degrees. It's cold but it's quiet. Tomorrow, we get up to about 41 some sun in the morning. A couple of clouds in the afternoon just with the cold air in place. A storm is passing to our south that might bring in a very brief Sprinkle or flurry. I think the best chance for that is around the east end. So most of you will end up staying dry and the cold will kind of settle in for the next two days. So 6 1535 Glen Cove, 36 in Medford. You see through the day, we kind of a hard time getting to 40 degrees. We'll do it briefly. Skies will clear at night. Thursday, we'll start off with some sun again. We are in the twenties to near 30 but not much of a wind. So it won't feel that bad. And in the afternoon trying to get up to 40 you do see that extra cloud cover around with the cold air. Now, by Friday skies are clearing, we get more of a southwest wind and temperatures begin to warm up. So Friday afternoon will be nice and seasonable. We hit about 50 Saturday sunny skies around the tri state temperatures in the low to mid fifties. So definitely that mild feel and then our weather will change late Sunday. So the good news is now that most of Sunday will be dry. The rain is trending later in the day. This is four o'clock rains on our doorstep. Most of this wet weather is not going to come through um until even after eight o'clock. So this is more of a Sunday evening, Sunday night thing and the rain will clear by Monday morning. So it's fast moving, but when the front passes by, it will be windy. So just kind of keep that in mind if you're going to be traveling. So cold weather will settle in for tomorrow and Thursday temp me 4050 sat uh Friday, Saturday looks amazing. There's that rain on Sunday with highs near 60 will clear out and get back to cooler weather for next week.

And fun. Now, let's get a check of your forecast with meteorologist Michelle Powers, maybe some festive flakes as well. Exactly. Some people may refer to this weather as festive and fun as well. I know not so much. It's going to be a little tough getting up and out the door, especially if you don't like the cold. It's going to be cold tomorrow, even colder on Thursday, the afternoon. Temperatures too running below average, but there are milder days just a few days away and they come back over the weekend. But at the same time, we're going to be tracking some rain Sunday could end up being very soggy. There could be some thunderstorms and even some gusty winds. This looks like a really sharp cold front coming through. So that could be powerful and pack a lot of moisture. In the meantime, our atmosphere is lacking of that moisture and it feels very bitter again, temperatures on their way to freezing or below and then look at the next several days, still cold Thursday. But Friday is sort of that transition because beyond Friday, temperatures return to the fifties. So during that time, the system coming our way is going to bring rain. It's going to be way too warm for any type of snow or anything frozen Sunday into Monday. This could be a lot of rain coming at us and there could be some gusty winds as well. So right now the theme is cold and that is here to stay. So it may look a bit festive tomorrow even into Thursday with a couple of broken showers or flurries don't count on too much though. That storm offshore is a little too far away and it jets out of here, but it brings the cold. Eventually, the milder air will take over for the end of the week and out ahead of that front on Friday and Saturday, temperatures are really going to warm up. So there's rain on the way for that. In the meantime, though temperatures tomorrow, here we go, running below average. So even though it's the afternoon when you think this is where we hit, our high temperatures temps are stopping in the forties, 41 in Stanford, 41 in Milford and Cornwall, one of the colder spots only 36 degrees. So again, with the weather headlines that just want to emphasize again, the morning wind chills are going to be tough to get through, but stick around that 10 day forecast is coming up next and we'll talk about those warmer days ahead and what exactly will open our will come our way on Sunday, Tina back to you. Thanks.

be Well: Mandy Moore on motherhood, marriage and her health

1120BeWellMandyMooreHealth_2023-11-20-10-00-14

Our first guest is best known for her Emmy nominated role on the hit series. This is us an amazing show. She has since gone back to her music roots is focusing on motherhood and is speaking out about a health condition that she shares with of people, Mandy Moore. Welcome to the show. Thank you so much for joining us now taking a look at your Instagram. I, I love, you know how many family moments and things you share, but you did, you actually meet your husband on Instagram. Is this true? I mean, I didn't slide into his D MS. It was a little before those, but yes, we did. We met each other because of Instagram. So, um my husband is a musician. He's in a band and I was in the car driving. I heard a song that I liked on the radio and this was back in 2015 and I was waiting for them to back out like who the band was, what the song was. And I finally went on the, the radio station's website. I kind of deduced what the song was and who the band was. I looked them up online and I saw they had a new album coming out and I was new to Instagram. I was a late adopter in 2015 and I posted a picture of their album cover and said something innocuous like this is gonna be the soundtrack of my summer. And I didn't tag them or do anything but lo and behold, a mutual friend of ours, uh, told my husband, hey, I think Mandy posted about you guys and he saw and managed to send me an email somehow because we had mutual friends. And um and then we started communicating and went out on like an epic first date and that was it. So yes, Instagram helped us foster that connection. Like if it weren't for Instagram, I don't know, we wouldn't have found each other. Maybe. So he sang his way into your heart literally. But wait, I gotta know about what was so epic about this first date. We had one of those, we went and had sushi and I think we were the only two people in the restaurant when, when the date started and then people filtered in and then we closed down the restaurant. We were there for like three hours just like nonstop talking, finished a bottle of sake. Like it was just that instant connection. And I, I went thinking like, oh cool. Like maybe I'll make a new musician friend. Like I didn't know what he looked like. I, I didn't sort of, like, scope anything out. And of course I walked in and immediately was like, oh, dang, he's really handsome. Like, what am I, what am I getting myself into? But it all worked out. I love that. I love that. Now, you have two sons, right. Yes. And are they so into the music? Oh, yes. And no. So, our older guy is a little over 2.5 and he, um, he has like, well curated musical leanings, I think because of Taylor of my husband. Like, you know, Gus likes Bruce Springsteen and Warren Zevon and like all kinds of cool music. But he's at the point now where of course we'll put on a good song and we'll sing along and he's like, no mama singing. No dad is singing. He just wants to hear the artist, which fair enough I want to hear the Boss sing too. But our little guy just turned a year old Ozzie and he is very into music. He's a mellow guy anyway. But music is like the one thing that seems to really like, focus him. He loves when my husband plays guitar. He loves when we sing together. So I'm like, ok, well, maybe we got one kid then that appreciates the music that mom and dad make. Yeah. Well, I could tell motherhood looks good on you because you glow when you talk about it. I love when you love. But how would you say that? Being a mother has influenced your music and just your outlook on life. I don't feel like, I mean, any parent out there I'm sure can attest to the fact that it like, it changes you on a cellular level. So I feel like your lens on the world, every decision you make. Like it, it's permeated everything. So it, it influences everything. I mean, I feel like it definitely impacts what I write about. Obviously, when I can find the time to write. Um it influences the choices I make, I think as an actor and on that side of my life as well, like, ok, I'm in an incredibly lucky and privileged position having found, you know, success as an actor and a musician. And it allows me to, you know, the ability to make certain choices. And it's like, I realize now as a parenthood, the value and saying no and having boundaries and really choosing to do things for all of the right reasons because it is something that is ultimately going to take me away from being with my family and spending time with my family. So it's like things have to mean a lot more or mean something in a new way that I think when I was younger and before Children, I was like, ah, you know, sure, why not? Like, I'll just like, jump into that and, and now I, I feel like I have to protect myself and protect my time I just, I value it in a different sense now because of, of parenthood and being a mom. Yeah, 100%. Now, I know you're actually here to bring awareness to a chronic condition that you've dealt with for years. So, so tell us, yeah, so a few years ago I noticed that like the skin on my face was red and rashy and peeling and inflamed and itchy and all of those things. And I think because I was working a lot, I just assumed, ok, I wear a lot of makeup. I put on prosthetic makeup work like this clearly has something to do with that. But when I kind of threw the kitchen sink at it and nothing really alleviated the symptoms or helped my skin get better. I reconciled like I have to go to the dermatologist and I was diagnosed with at topic dermatitis, which is the most common form of eczema. And I have partnered as a paid spokesperson with insight to just talk about my firsthand experience with, with eczema and really to empower others to find relief from their symptoms in the way that I have and learn about what their treatment options are and just encourage people to, to speak to their dermatologists. So we've partnered on this particular campaign called Moments of Clarity. And it really is just highlighting stories of real people that live with eczema and who have found relief in their symptoms. And again, it's all just about encouraging people to see themselves and to be inspired by these stories and to find relief and talk to their doctor. Well, we actually have a clip from your Moments of clarity campaign. So let's take a look at. It's so frustrating. My eczema is mainly sort of localized around my eyes. It's itchy, it's uncomfortable. What were some of the things that you tried in order to find relief? So many things, steroids, lotions, sometimes we'd have to put socks over my hands and then wrap the socks. Try to, like, keep the moisture on it. I just really lost hope for a long time. Was there one particular incident that just, we were at a high school football game playing catch? I caught the football and my skin broke and it started bleeding. I went straight to my mom and said I'm tired of it. I wanna find something that's gonna work. What did you learn as being part of this? I mean, I'm, I'm, like, choked up. Yeah. I mean, that's sweet, Anna. I loved her and her, her mother, Rachel. I mean, as a parent especially, it just really hit home. My, my little guy, Gus has eczema as well and I know that's something he got for me. I'm like, oh, I can't believe I passed that on to you. But I guess it's just just the general idea that, like, we're not an anomaly, like, there's millions of people around this country. And around the world that are living with this condition. And I think we all recognize how it can impact our daily lives and you feel self conscious about it. Obviously, Anna in that clip was talking about, you know, the tremendous impact it had not just on her self confidence, but also it's painful. And again, as a parent, I think the helpless feeling of, of watching your child um suffer and, and, and be in discomfort is, is just the worst feeling and recognizing empowering yourself to recognize that there are options out there. There are ways that you can find relief from those symptoms and ultimately live a healthier happier life. We're so glad you're bringing awareness to such a thing that affects so many people around the world. Truly. We're encouraging people to visit my moments of clarity.com to learn more about this particular campaign. And yeah, just excited to help spread the word.
