We won't be getting snow but we might be getting some rain. Scott joins us. Now with the forecast, Scott, what can you tell us? But we could see like a half inch to one inch of rain and imagine that to be snow. That will be about 10 inches. So, yeah, let's just uh ho focus on the rain, right? Because before the rain comes, we're looking at this all the fog. Well, you can't really see it. We are looking at the dense fog, dense fog advisory out along the Jersey shore as well as in South central Jersey along 195 and south of that through the overnight. So just take it slow, use plenty of falling distance between you and other vehicles and also just make sure to use your loping headlights very, very important there as we are seeing this dense fog. This is a look over at seaside heights as temperatures are gonna be in the forties. So real mild this evening, cloudy skies and areas of fog as well. We are gonna be seeing that continue through the overnight as that rain is gonna be pushing on and the showers will be building throughout the morning, the heaviest gonna be midday into the early afternoon and then things are gonna start to get better 34 o'clock. So all any of those holiday tree lighting, any of the big festivities should be able to go on into the late afternoon, early evening, but still just have the umbrella with you just in case we are seeing this rain pushing on in from West Virginia of Virginia P A is gonna be moving on in from the southwest. That's just gonna be dumping a decent amount of rain. No flooding though because of a lot of the steady rain is not really coming down hard and fast, just gonna be steady up to a half inch or more. Central North Jersey, a little bit less south of 195 Tom's river down the Jersey shore. As we are gonna be seeing more cloudy skies, rain will be continuing to push in as we go through out your Sunday morning steadier and heavier into the late morning and early afternoon. And then we are gonna start to see that dwindle out by 45 o'clock and then cloudy skies, foggy conditions will be lingering with a few isolated showers still in the cars as we go towards your Sunday night. We are looking at these temperatures, forties and fifties into your Sunday, gusty winds as well. And then we are looking at Monday and Tuesday, breezy much cooler weather as we head into the rest of the week ahead.

Made in New Jersey: Exploring local wineries and vineyards 

We raise a glass if you knew New Jersey has more than five dozen wineries and vineyards. Wow. Right. That is definitely something in this week's made in New Jersey. New styles. Britney Miller takes us along for the wine tasting. Unlike any other wine country. Isn't it breathtaking? The rigid rows of vines? The sweet smell of growing grapes. Wow. Look at that. And if you're thinking this is Napa, think again. So we have some nice cluster. These wines are made in New Jersey from Lambertville to Robbinsville. The Garden state is home to more than 60 wineries and vineyards. Otto Angelico owns Angelico's winery. You've been doing this for quite a while. You're saying you were fifth generation. I'm trying to do the same thing that uh my ancestor did in the past and when you pick them, you just snapped them here. It's harder than it looks. We grow 13 different grapes on our property. We probably make 17 or 18 different wines from those including Pinot, Grigio Merlot and working dog wineries award winning Cabernet Franc owner Mark Carr started harvesting in early September 1st. You have to grow the grapes. We have bud break in the spring and they quickly become clusters of grapes by June. We're picking in September and October and that's when the work begins. Here we go. It's raining grips. So we, oh, it's so crunchy, stomping on the grapes. We're stomping on the grapes. Get the juice, it's flowing, gonna make wine. It's gonna be so fun as we're stopping the grapes. This is like a workout. Even though technology has changed the smashing grape game, the process is the same, squeeze the juice ferment it in these tanks or barrels and drink up, but it may take a while. It can be anywhere from six months to two years. Madeleine Cozine is a vineyard and says, what makes Jersey wine different is the climate we have South Jersey where they make some amazing bordeaux varietals and then you can go all the way up to North Jersey where they're playing with Austrian varietals like Riesling and Bla Frankish and Gruner liner. These home grown wines have become internationally known and the fastest growing division of agriculture in the state. New Jersey has become a force to be reckoned with. Cheers to New Jersey Wine Miller News. 12.
