00:00 Well, that storm doesn't stop across the southeast.

00:02 It's going to continue its journey north

00:04 and it's going to be spreading some

00:06 widespread rain as we head into the

00:08 later half into the weekend into

00:10 the beginning of next week.

00:12 Now if we take a look closely,

00:14 you'll see this dark green bullseye.

00:16 That's what we're expecting.

00:17 The heaviest rain that's going to

00:19 extend from eastern Pennsylvania

00:20 up through the Hudson Valley,

00:21 even down through the New York City

00:24 metro area right there along that I-95

00:26 corridor, Baltimore, Washington DC,

00:27 parts of the Delmarva,

00:28 and then even up across southern New England.

00:31 But thunderstorms still in store

00:32 there across the Northeast,

00:34 even back through the Ohio Valley

00:36 as that storm advances Sunday night,

00:38 spreading widespread drenching rain.

00:39 And while it's going to be

00:41 moving up along the coast,

00:42 we are talking about some coastal

00:44 hazards to keep in mind here Sunday

00:46 into Monday and those coastal hazards

00:48 are going to extend from Wilmington,

00:51 all Wilmington,

00:51 NC all the way up the coast through

00:54 coastal Maine and into Atlantic Canada.

00:56 Now those winds are going to be howling.

00:59 At times we're gusting between

01:01 40 and 60 mph that can cause concern

01:03 for localized power outages.

01:05 So heads up we are talking about

01:07 some blustery conditions there.

01:08 Coastal inundation and beach erosion

01:10 are all going to be concerned,

01:12 so really not the best beach

01:14 weekend into it next week as well.

01:16 I know not necessarily time of year

01:18 that you want to go dip your toes

01:20 in the sand or in the water,

01:22 but hey,

01:23 maybe you want to take a walk on the beach.

01:26 You can enjoy some of that

01:27 overnight blustery there as we

01:29 head into Sunday and Monday.

01:30 And as that storm continues,

01:31 his journey north,

01:32 well,

01:32 it's going to be dumping a lot of rain,

01:34 and this may look similar to even

01:36 last weekend where we were talking

01:38 about 2 to 4 inches.

01:39 Well,

01:39 that's going to be the same story there

01:41 along parts of the mid Atlantic up

01:43 through New England with Iraqi with

01:45 the local storm X as high as 10 inches.

01:47 Now that's going to be occurring

01:48 across the southeast,

01:49 but hey,

01:50 still pretty impressive rain there.

01:51 2 to 4 inches there as we head

01:53 along the northeastern seaboard.

01:54 Now I want to show you how this

01:56 is going to play out here again.

01:57 I'm going to take this into Sunday morning.

01:59 Most of your day on Sunday.

02:01 You're going to be clear,

02:02 but then we're tracking this wave

02:03 of energy pushing out of the West.

02:05 It's going to kind of start to

02:06 work together with this storm

02:07 that's going to be moving on North.

02:09 Those two are going to phase together

02:11 and bring widespread rain that's

02:12 going to spread there throughout

02:13 Sunday night into Monday.

02:14 So heads up not the best community

02:16 conditions there from Portland,

02:17 Boston, New York,

02:18 even back towards Buffalo.

02:19 It's going to be a wet go of it before

02:21 we do start to change over to snow.

02:23 As we head into late Monday into Tuesday.
