It's gonna cool down again in the 10 day. Let's talk about the bigger issue, which is going to be the rain tomorrow. So we do have cloudy skies all weekend, obviously a fog out there this morning too. So that's creating some visibility issues. But on Sunday, it is a steady rain for a good chunk of the day. So today is the pick out of the weekend. There'll be some peaks of sunshine this afternoon around lunch, but not much of it. Temperatures are in the mid ff maybe even upper fifties if we get enough sunshine, but I would not count on the sun. It's gonna be a possibility that we, you got a few breaks in the clouds, but most of the day is pretty cloudy. This is 5 p.m. the sun is already set and temperatures are still in the fifties. So you don't need the heavy winter jacket. Just a light jacket. Today will do dinner time is mainly dry, but after 89 o'clock, there could be some spritzes and stray showers. It's a all day full LG wash out on Sunday, light rain in the morning, check this out. Temperatures are in the fifties in the morning, that's above average for the afternoon at this point in the year. But we don't warm up on Sunday. It's gonna stay 50 all day with this very persistent, very steady and very damp rain that just sticks around until I'd say about six o'clock or so. So, if you have any brunch lunch, early dinner plans Sunday, I just don't see a lot of opportunity for dry time for you here. So we're gonna keep that in mind. Temperatures are not bad all the way through Monday. We're hanging out in the fifties. Today's high of 56 is the warmest that we've actually seen since mid November morning. Lows are in the forties, so no worries about frost. No worries about cold when you're stepping out the door. Tuesday morning, we're back down to 36. So that's kind of setting the stage for a cooler upcoming work week, 46 there, 43 on Wednesday and 42 on Thursday. It's not the coldest set we've seen, but it is definitely pretty chilly for that first night of Hanukkah. Expected to definitely feel like it is December, but we rebound a little bit next weekend with another chance for some rain. Just a little heads up on that. But the work week does look dry. Not that we want to talk about the work week on a Saturday, but that's how it's shaping up

News 12 hosts Suffolk County executive debate

102423LISUFFOLKDEBATE10_2023-10-24-22-32-20

Politics. Now it was debate night right here in the news, 12 studio and candidates for a Suffolk county executive going head to head and things got a little heated. Yes, they did. News Twelve's Kevin Vey joins us now with the highlights. Kevin and Joe and Antoinette. Those candidates really did not pull any punches tonight. They started exchanging jabs almost immediately on topics from taxes to the environment and public safety. He's full of nonsense, which is a lot of what this his campaign is about. That's all lies. This is what career politicians do. Both candidates for Suffolk County executive in full attack mode during a debate in our news 12 studios, Republican Ed Romayne faced off against democrat Dave Cologne. The debate quickly heated up on the issue of public safety. Not one law enforcement agency has endorsed his candidacy because of his views on law enforcement. He is with the progressive wing of the Democratic Party. I support law enforcement. I support uh changes to our bail laws. I support making sure that our law enforcement officers have the tools and training they need. Colon presented himself as a political outsider touting his record as a prosecutor and a business leader. Romain emphasized his 40 year career in public service, including his current role as Brookhaven town supervisor. Both said they want to make sure Suffolk is a safe, affordable place to live. I'm looking forward to leading Suffolk County into the future, doing the things that are so necessary. We need regional solutions for solid waste, for transportation, for sewer waste, for all the other things that we need. If after 40 years in office, he hasn't solved those problems that you're experiencing. He's part of the problem and we need people with new vision and new ideas. I have a background in law enforcement. I will work to keep us safe and we still have two weeks to go before election day. So this race could really continue to heat up. Now, if you miss tonight's debate or if you want to catch it again, here's a list of encore presentations showing when you can see it.
