Interstate 84

A good chunk of northern and central New Jersey under those advisories.

Also the I-84 corridor.

We're talking about Orange County, Putnam County, Interior, Fairfield County, Connecticut.

Sensitive plants are at risk, so take them in or cover them up overnight tonight.

Poughkeepsie, the upper 60s, and still down to 60 in Monticello.

There are more clouds pushing in across Monticello, spots north of the I-84, but for the rest of the area, a lot of sun and just a few clouds mixing in.

That's why temperatures are warming up nicely.

There is a batch of rain off to the north around upstate New York and pushing through New England.

His girlfriend, Deborah, is following behind him in her own car.

As they approach the I-84 intersection, they pull into a truck stop.

Samuel parks the RV.

He figures that police will be swarming all over his house once they realize he's not showing up to prison.

Skies are mostly clear.

There are a few clouds far north of the city along and north of the I-84 corridor.

A few sprinkles falling apart near Red Hook and that will continue to taper off.

We have a sprinkle or two.

And 60 in Islip.

Skies are mostly clear.

Just a few lingering clouds north of I-84 throughout the Catskills and the Poconos.

We had a sprinkle about an hour ago, but that continues to taper off.

Poughkeepsie, good morning, 35 as well.

We still have a frost advisory for spots north and west of the city, mainly along and north of the I-84 corridor.

That's through 9:00 this morning.

By this time tomorrow, it's gonna be a little milder with temperatures in the 40s and the 50s.

All right.

I-84 traffic and congestion are major concerns for Newtown.

I think that's a bipartisan issue.

What can a state representative realistically do to address some of that congestion on I-84 and that traffic that spills onto our local roads like 25 Main Street or even through Sandy Hook?

Yeah.

So, so I think there are a couple of things that can be done.

One, first of all, there's been a plan to widen I-84 to three lanes on each side for

eons,

There's been some embedded rain.

heavier rains too and some of that rain is starting to scoot across the Massachusetts border so Amesbury for example even Haverhill getting under some of this so there's another line straddling the Massachusetts Connecticut border down along I-84 so that is going to push into southern Worcester County shortly this is not a ton of rain although if you're under some of these downpours it could seem like a ton at the time not everybody's going to get wet but there are showers and line of storms that are pushing through some of the area.

And that line is going to usher in some cooler, more comfortable air.

So as we get later into tonight, we'll have some clearing skies and the humidity will drop.
