Today will be a transition day across Long Island as the storm system responsible for Friday's soaking rain continues to move away. While a few lingering showers remain possible, especially during the morning hours, the trend will be toward improving conditions as the day wears on. Clouds will gradually thin, and some breaks of sunshine are expected to develop during the afternoon. Temperatures will remain seasonably mild, and any remaining wet weather should become increasingly isolated.
The better half of the weekend arrives on Sunday. Dry weather, a mix of sun and clouds, and comfortable fall temperatures will make for excellent conditions across the Island. Light winds and lower humidity levels will add to the pleasant feel, providing a great opportunity to enjoy outdoor activities. Overall, the weather pattern is becoming much quieter, with calmer and more seasonable conditions settling in after the recent stretch of rain.
