00:00 Not the most pleasant morning

00:01 across the tri-state in New England.

00:03 You'll notice widespread cloud cover

00:05 here from cities like Wilkes-Barre

00:07 and Scranton back up toward Portland,

00:08 Maine, Burlington, Vermont and Boston.

00:10 You are sucked into the clouds this morning.

00:12 You'll notice there is a brief stretch

00:15 where there's not much going on,

00:16 but then as we look further West

00:18 into the Midwest today,

00:20 more in the way of clouds and rain.

00:22 That's what we're going to be

00:24 tracking here across the Northeast.

00:25 Will start with today's round of

00:27 rain and some thunderstorms as well.

00:29 Boston, New York, Philadelphia,

00:30 Washington DC later this afternoon.

00:32 The same system that brought the

00:34 rain and storms Friday, Saturday,

00:35 and Sunday.

00:36 That's the same one bringing them

00:38 back to the 95 corridor today,

00:40 and we could even see a spotty

00:42 thunderstorm as we look toward

00:43 Monday night football.

00:44 The bills taken on the jets at 815

00:47 Eastern Time, largely dry,

00:48 still somewhat humid and a spotty

00:50 thunderstorm not totally out of the

00:52 question during the second half of the game.

00:55 Make sure you are heating lightning

00:56 safety equipment and your phone

00:58 is on when you're playing lightning

01:00 safety and heads up if you're going.

01:02 First of all,

01:03 enjoy yourself and second of all,

01:04 you want to make sure you are prepared

01:06 for at least a little bit of rain,

01:08 perhaps a poncho for the second

01:10 half of the game.

01:11 Alright, as we look to Tuesday again,

01:13 that first systems on the way out,

01:15 but the second system is on the way in,

01:17 and that means more in the way of rain

01:19 and thunderstorms from Buffalo to Pittsburgh,

01:21 Charleston, West Virginia,

01:22 all the way back to New York,

01:23 Boston, Portland and Burlington.

01:25 This second system will bring more rainfall,

01:27 but Tuesday in through Wednesday we're

01:28 looking at just about 1 to 3 inches of rain.

01:31 The heaviest of it setting up along

01:33 and just West of I-95.

01:34 So if you live in cities like Manchester,

01:37 New Hampshire, Montpelier,

01:37 Vermont back towards Springfield,

01:38 Chicopee, North Adams,

01:39 Massachusetts out toward the Berkshires,

01:41 and even as you're getting into

01:42 Western Connecticut and parts of New Jersey,

01:44 it's going to be awfully wet.

01:46 This is in an area that's

01:48 already seen plenty of rain,

01:49 so be careful as localized

01:51 flash flooding as possible.

01:52 That said,

01:52 there's better weather ahead.

01:53 I want to end things on a positive note.

01:56 After that second system later this week,

01:58 we are looking at our first real

02:00 taste of fall like weather into

02:02 the Northeast high pressures back

02:04 in charge and that makes us a lot

02:07 drier and temperatures will be

02:09 a lot more like early October.
