Um, I do think that's how they get rid of the, the entire county now is jonesing for subway and a foot long cookie. Well, I mean, is up to something. That's what I think they did a collaboration. All right, where our forecast is going as we head into tonight, we've got to clear to a partly cloudy sky. It's partly cloudy to clear. We will be looking for a sunny start to your Tuesday afternoon. Temperatures are going to be on the chillier side in the lower thirties, daytime, highs this week getting into the lower forties. By the weekend, we're back up into the fifties and wouldn't, you know, it, we've got some rain showers to track as we get into the second half of the weekend. At least that's the way it looks like right now as we roll into tonight, we are looking for clear skies. Temperatures by Tuesday morning are going to be at or just above the freezing mark. It is going to be a chillier start as we, uh first get Tuesday underway clouds will eventually show back up in the forecast day. High temperatures struggling. We should be at about 4849 for a normal daytime high temperature tomorrow. We're looking for lower forties and it's a similar situation as we get into Wednesday, temperatures are going to be on the cooler side, upper twenties and lower thirties to start off Wednesday. We'll be looking for daytime highs to eventually get back up into the lower forties the best day of this 10 day. Well, the best day of this is going to be on Friday with mainly sunny skies and temperatures are back up into the lower fifties. We'll see partly cloudy skies on Saturday. Saturday looks to be the drier day of the upcoming week and we're more than likely be dealing with some rain and wind as we get into the second half of the weekend. The second half next week looks fantastic with mainly sunny skies and temperatures a little bit more in line for December. More details on that forecast coming right up. Thanks.

Asian Pacific American Heritage Month: Frappe Joe Coffee on Route 27 in Edison

MSNJFRAPJOE

today kicks off asian pacific american heritage month and all month long. We are going to be highlighting asian pacific americans who live and work right here in New Jersey. Our first step front page, oh, coffee shop in route 27 in Edison. We opened several months before the pandemic. That was August 2019. I'm the son of immigrants and everything that we did is culturally different. We are from India, were from Gujarat India. What we see today is that adventurous taste buds, right? That authentic exploration crappy job has flavor. We wanted to bring that diversity to the menu. All of our favorite is the smoked organic tofu wrap. It's so good. And every time I get it never gets sick of it. It's always super fresh if you're from regions of the mediterranean, if you're Arabic, if you're indian you will pick up on certain elements, right? People that are looking for a different experience in the process of developing the menu as we were generating product. We were taking a lot of product and dropping it off at the local er, at JFK Hospital. When we had faced the lockdown orders due to Covid, we showed up with donuts, bagels, coffee being able to deliver seven days a week, twice a day and on each delivery, we served enough food to feed 50 to 60 people. So anywhere from 100 to 120 meals per day. And that continued for the entire wave of Covid joe. He's just a very amicable guy, take care guys, thank you, he gets along with everyone and also like if you don't know what you're ordering, like I told you I'm not a coffee connoisseur, like he'll tell me what to get and like what's good. My favorite donut is across the board. Salt and maple cream. The american beauty, which is a rose cardamom infused cream, apple, maple crunch is just to die for. Pronto has like a really good atmosphere to just study or even just talk and hang with friends and the coffee and food here is really, really good. It brings that element of culture. It brings that element of authenticity to it and that's what people want to experience. And that's what we deliver a great cook baker barista and a generous guy. What's not to love for more information on frappe joe's head over to our website, News 12 dot com or you can check out the news 12 app.
