eastward. some thinking about the yankee game, 4:00, the heaviest main moving out, so maybe this is a delay. i think they'll be a window in the evening where lows are current as we go through the overnight. temperatures rise and we'll be in the upper 50s tomorrow. so at least it's comfortable in that respect. it's going to be a soggy day. tomorrow, 59. breezy and mild. there's periods of rain and possible thunder. the heaviest rain is, i would say, noon to maybe 3:00, 4:00. 59 degrees, you do appear high. a shower in the evening, but otherwise, cloudy skies. at 4:30, we'll look at the mets home opener. that's against the phillies, is that right, mr. powers. >> that's correct. can't be as cold as yesterday at yankee stadiums. >> it would be around 50. they're going to play. >> play ball. >> thanks, lee. >>> coming up, watch as a motorcyclist weaves in and out of traffic. police say this video has a lesson for other drivers. some people are always cold and some seem like they're always warm. i should write a book. >> yes. >> dr. bessle is hey what are you here for? you getting poked,
