00:00 Beautiful day across the Northeast today.

00:02 Yes, there are a few exceptions.

00:04 We do have more cloud cover for

00:06 cities like Buffalo, Rochester,

00:08 and even a spotty shower can't be

00:11 totally counted out in Burlington,

00:12 Vermont.

00:13 But once you head into,

00:15 let's say Portland, Boston,

00:16 New York, Pittsburgh 60s sunshine.

00:18 Absolutely gorgeous.

00:18 Even 72 degrees in Washington DC and 81.

00:21 Awfully warm in Charleston,

00:23 West Virginia.

00:24 Enjoy it now.

00:25 Hate to be the bearer of bad news for the

00:28 weekend, but here we go again.

00:30 Always seems like the worst

00:32 weather happens on the weekend,

00:33 and this weekend is no exception

00:35 as our massive storm.

00:36 The one we've been watching for days

00:38 has finally traveled across the

00:40 country and will get into the Northeast.

00:42 The Ohio Valley and the Mid Atlantic.

00:44 Now if you live in New England,

00:46 you're spared the worst of the weather.

00:48 Boston, Portland, Manchester,

00:49 New Hampshire,

00:49 even looking out toward Providence,

00:51 Rhode Island.

00:52 Your weekends not so bad.

00:53 However,

00:53 if you live a little further South right

00:55 as you're getting into the southern

00:57 part of New York through the Keystone

00:59 State and down through New Jersey

01:01 into the Delmarva Peninsula,

01:02 you are going to be seeing some

01:04 soaking rain on Saturday into

01:06 Saturday night and even Sunday.

01:08 Lingering showers as this

01:09 system moves off the coast.

01:10 Saturday is the worst of the

01:12 two days without a doubt,

01:13 but it isn't going to be pleasant

01:15 on Sunday either.

01:16 If you had plans to get outdoors,

01:18 I'd say make some indoor plans

01:19 as you move through this weekend.

01:21 Again,

01:21 looking through most of New England

01:23 as the one area avoiding the worst

01:25 of the weather couple quick showers

01:26 on the way into northern New England

01:28 out toward Caribou, Maine,

01:29 back to Burlington.

01:30 But you'll see more showers back

01:32 in the way of Altoona, Pennsylvania,

01:34 looking really from I-99 on to the

01:35 West out toward Pittsburgh and then

01:37 back through New York City onto the

01:39 Delmarva Peninsula, Washington DC,

01:40 and Baltimore.

01:41 The heaviest of rain for this entire

01:43 weekend looking right across the I-80

01:45 corridor if you do live in,

01:47 let's say Altoona or even heading

01:48 out through the Poconos back

01:50 towards Stroudsburg and even

01:51 into New York City heads up.

01:53 You've got a soaking wet weekend ahead,

01:55 especially because of Saturday.

01:56 Heavy rain into South Jersey as well.

01:59 Out toward Atlantic City.

02:00 Make sure you're really staying careful,

02:02 not just because travel will be a problem,

02:04 but we could see some issues in

02:06 terms of very localized flooding.

02:08 Because what we've had more than

02:09 enough rain in these areas now,

02:11 a little bit of good news.

02:13 I love to end the forecast

02:14 with some good stuff here.

02:16 Giants taking on the bills on Sunday

02:18 evening 820 kickoff and in terms of

02:20 the forecast is it picture perfect?

02:22 No, is it bad?

02:23 I'd say no.

02:24 I mean we are looking at some cloud

02:26 cover and will be in the 40s.

02:27 Accuweather real field temperatures

02:28 in the mid 40s, but let's get real.

02:31 It's Buffalo in October.

02:32 That shouldn't be so much of a surprise,

02:34 but it won't be pouring and it'll be at

02:36 least nice enough weather to get the game done.
