LIFORECAST

Right. So that's gonna be the story. Really. For this week, we have a cold breeze the next couple of days but bright skies. So breezy and cold for much of the week, Friday is my pick of the week. We get close to 50 in some spots. So it is going to turn a little bit warmer. It will be very nice, less wind. We are dry through the weekend, temps near 50 some more clouds around and it's likely that we're not going to see rain until next Monday. So overnight tonight, 30 degrees, the breeze, it feels more like the twenties, it's dry tomorrow. 4544 degrees. It will be nice. And as we head into the next couple of days, we're looking at this dry pattern, high pressure is in place. We have a breeze out of the northwest and that will keep us looking just fine. So in the morning getting up 31 in Miller Place at 7 a.m. 28 in Hampton Bay is heavier jacket tomorrow. A little bit of a breeze from time to time out of the west southwest breeze, Tuesday night into west. You see we're in the thirties in the morning, low forties in the afternoon. So the next couple of days will be very similar 30 degrees tonight. With that West northwest breeze. Tomorrow, it looks nice. You'll get up to 45 in Riverhead, 43 Smithtown and 44 in Hempstead. Great to have the sunshine out there will finally warm us up a little bit by Friday at 49 nearing 50 for Saturday and Sunday. We have some showers early next week and it will turn chilly and dry again after.

Celebrate your teacher! Today marks Teacher Appreciate Week across Long Island 

Right. It is Teacher Appreciation Week and we are kicking off our series by going to a different school district each day. This is so cool because we want to see what these schools have to offer today. We're at middle country schools, which is celebrating a third grade teacher who's been teaching for three decades. So Jen Selig is at North Coleman Elementary School in center with a big turnout there, Jen, what a great place, a big turnout. Er, you know, normally it's hard to get people to come out to do live interviews with us on a Monday. But look at all of these people here, we got students, previous students, faculty and staff, all here to celebrate Mister G Mr. We all appreciate you here. Love. How are you feeling? I am feeling that like maybe I did something right, the past 30 years, you know, and listen, I could come in and teach curriculum every day or I could come in and teach curriculum and build relationships and make connections. And that's what I prided myself on for the past 30 years. And they've brought me so much more, um, than I can ever give them and it's just been an incredible journey. And middle country school district has been fabulous. This community has been fabulous and I am just so excited to see so many of my former students who are adults, some of them teachers now themselves and some of my current students are here and my amazing musicians and my family back there. And I love these people so much and they've just given me a wonderful life. So I'm very happy to celebrate and share this and I share this with every teacher across Long Island because um it's our profession, it's, it's, it's a group effort. We, we, we build off of each other, we inspire each other. We motivate each other, we can't do it alone. So it's just exciting to see so many of them here. And um I'm so overwhelmed. Congratulations. You heard that you're retiring, you know, I'm sure everyone has been miss you here, but we'll all keep in touch, right? 100% going across the island, you know, showing respect, all teachers and right here we're here in center reach, we're going to send it back to you guys in the studio, Mr G. Jen. Tell Mr G that Rich, rich and er in the studio say what's up and thank you. I will, they say what's up? Thank you Jen. Thank you Jen. And thank you Mr
