First of the passing showers into western long island, up the lower hudson into connecticut but a much more substantial line of showers and storms to the west of us through the poconos to the catskills and that will have to work its way through the it will take time to get here. Temperatures still pretty mild, 57 at central park, 58 at newark, 56 in allentown, not because of the sunshine obviously, the sun is not out there but the warm southerly flow, southwest wind is bringing up warmer temperatures, the cold for coming through and that line of storms is Holding Together pretty solid, that means heavy showers, gusty winds along with that line as it passes through, and a wet commute depends on where you are and what time but most of us dealing with showers and thunderstorms until we get get better.

This impacts six students specifically but if you were at the Board Meeting last night and heard the debate you know this does apply throughout the entire district and affect a lot of people. There are some who believe this is an issue of rights, others say it violates their privacy concerns and is a security issue. I am glad to see our school taking the right steps and affirming the lives of people like myself and implement a policy that will save those lives in the future. What about the mental distress on all our children, my child . Nothing is getting addressed for that. Reporter contentious issue on a topic debated nationally. Now students who are transgender can use the bathroom which i feel it is great for all of our kids that we are teaching them about the kind of people they should be, the kind of community we should have and the kind of society they should be part of. Reporter mondays vote marks the second time the board has allowed Public Comment on this but in the past some parents have been so vocal about this proposed change the issue was tabled. The district said this policy is in keeping with antidiscrimination laws, not only opening the bathrooms and locker rooms to transgender students but requires the school staff to address those students by the names and pronouns they associate with. Those on both sides of this issue believe it will take time to adjust to the new policy. And affirmation the transgender people exist in our community, the we are great people, we are human beings and not some type of tentacle people like to portray as predators or immoral or perverse. Possibly getting into fights or things like that so i am worried about that. I speak for the majority that a lot of people dont know how to feel about their certain situation and it is a touchy situation. This extends beyond bathrooms. It applies to the sports teams and the gym classes. Transgender students will be able to take this class and participate in those activities that correspond with the gender they associate with.

Meteorologist a line of showers and storms coming and but nothing like that but there will be heavy rain and gusty winds coming along with it. Here is what we see on esp radar, first of the showers across the city, a dry spot coming through now but a solid line you can see moving quickly to the east, looks like it will hold together at this point over the mountains and down as it comes toward us, probably back amount of rain in a short time and move through quick, we have 58 at newark, 57 central park, 52 in bridgeport, a messy Tuesday Morning commute, radar and satellite that line will hold together pretty solid as the cold front forces its way through the tristate region but highpressure will be building an afterword so light to moderate rainfall with that one round of storms that looks like it could be on the stronger side. Future gases at all gets out of your pretty quickly. Once we get beyond 1 00 in the afternoon everything starts to clear the tristate region so no one 00 in the city, could take a little longer in long island and connecticut because you are farther east.

Ines imagine experiencing scaling Mount Everest for taking White Water Rafting rider riding a wood ridden roller coaster or looking at a whale in the eye, not actually doing this but Virtual Reality and all these head sets are out. They can take you there. Ben a lot of these gaming devices will soon be on the market. Shelly palmer shows as a couple options we will have as early as the next month or so. Ben this is what one of these the most famous of all these is the oculus rift. You are having so much trouble. Ben a little creepy i have 2 say. Imagine a bunch of people in the living room instead of looking at their phones doing that. The most popular version is the oculus rift, around 600. You think that is expensive, you have to have a killer pc in the 1500 range, not a mac but a real live pc as high as 5000, a real gaming pc. Oculus run some discount so you can get the package together but you are looking at 15, 1800 to get into this to begin with. Ben why not a mac . They dont have the Software Available yet. You need a heavy graphics process. The next is the acc vibe which is supposed to be the best one in the world, it is 800 before you put the pc on it. They say it is the best of the best of the best and has a thing walk around in a room which is often. I dont recommend getting it for Walking Around ever when you are not wearing these because you are not really in a place, you are virtually in a place and sitting down a safer. If the pc thing is scaring you sony has playstation where you use your actual playstation so you dont need a pc and sony allows you to have a head set and game controller and the same game controller you use with your regular playstation and all the games you would normally play the you already have are playable through the head set so that is supercold. Ines i dont know theres Something Like this out there but if im sitting there i cant travel to places far across the world. I would love to go to venice every day but i cant. Is there any kind of plenty of travel. This is different, it is 99 and you use your Samsung Galaxy phone or note or f7. Ben you insert it in their. It goes here. This is a galaxy note and this is how it works. What is cool about this is 99, powered by oculus and you have a lot of opportunities, you can go anywhere, you can scale everest, watch 3d trailers of any movies or three 3d movies, and incredibly clearance, plugin head phones, the audio is outstanding. Ben have you tried oculus rift . Compare this is much less expensive. Put a 700 phone in a 99 head set, much less expensive. Real oculus when you put it on has the seamless experience. It really takes you to another place. This is fantastic and affordable and a great way because samsung added these 360 cameras and you can take your own pictures but when you put on oculus or gamers are going to go crazy, tourists are going to love it, all kinds of things you can do with video and you know what they are that are awesome. Ben just by there are all kinds of things you can do on video that are awesome. Not that i have any personal knowledge and this is the future of gaming. Ben sitting around virtue and reality. If you cant travel or dont want to travel or dont want to travel or experience things you could never experience like climbing Mount Everest this is as close as you will ever get. Ben all right, obviously a big fan, shelly palmer, thank you very much. We have much more this morning. What is he doing in Virtual Reality . Ines i dont want to know.

When it comes to rain our first few showers came through earlier in the city and that heavier line of showers to the west just coming out of the poconos going to the border of new jersey, pennsylvania and will head to the southeast.
