SPEAKER_00:

Hi, this is Midi Ralder Steve Pelletier, and I am the weatherman. Hope you have a great day today. It is Veterans Day Tuesday. The winds are strong out of the northwest. Hope you caught the information on the sinking of the Edmund Fitzgerald in Lake Superior. 50-year anniversary was on the 10th. You can just go back one day to uh November 10th, our report then, and we have a description from Jeff Morrison. So uh listen in there. It's still available, available. All our uh reports have been available for the last five years. We've been doing this since 2020. And we're going to continue to go as we head into the end of 2025 and begin the new year of 2026 in just a couple of months. Uh, weather-wise, though, we're into that northwesterly flow. There was like effects, snow showers, and squalls that we talked about uh during the uh dissertation on the sinking and the history of that Edmund Fitzgerald disaster. And uh, of course, we have all those strong uh areas of snow to the east sides of Lake Huron, Lake Superior, and even Lake Michigan, Lake Ontario, and Lake Erie, the same thing. So a lot of snow showers across the finger lakes of New York, from western New York, Buffalo, all the way east Rochester, and out towards Utica, Rome, and northward up to Messina. Also, some snow showers and squalls up around Erie and Cleveland. And uh they'll be coming to an end probably tomorrow, but today's still the possibility of more snow showers. And there may even be a snow flurry or two in the New York and metropolitan area uh a little bit later on today. As a matter of fact, uh we're going to have this fair cold weather trend for one day. Big area high pressure pushes through, and then we'll get into some dry but seasonable weather. That means highs in the upper 40s, lower 50s, and nighttime lows back to about 30 to 35, uh closer to 40 in the city. And that will be occurring during the daytime on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday of this week. Looks basically dry after this blustery today. Today we're going to have some wind gusts up to 40 miles per hour. And that in itself could cause some problems for travelers in the Northeast. And it looks like those strong west by northwest winds will make the controllers really stick to the books and getting everybody into Nork, LaGuardia, and JFK, but it will cause between one and two hour delays because of those winds, especially midday and during the afternoon. Generally dry weather in Atlanta. Could be some snow showers across sections of the Appalachians in West Virginia, eastern Tennessee, Kentucky, and western North and South Carolina. However, it does look dry down to Florida, dry in Houston, Dallas, Fort Worth, Chicago. The snow showers are done there. The rain showers continue across Portland and Seattle. Another strong evolution low pressure system will be arriving in the Pacific Northwest over the next 24 to 36 hours. I'm intermittent fellow Tierian. Hope you have a good day today. Talk to you first thing tomorrow. But again, uh happy Veterans Day to all the vets. You see one, you know one, give them a call. Tell them that you appreciate them and thank them for their service. Hope you have a great day, talk to you tomorrow.
