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.

Trans-Siberian Orchestra founder works with students at Berner Middle School

Answer that young musicians in Massapequa are gearing up for a big show with the help of a master trans Siberian orchestra. Violinist Mark Wood spent the day at Burner Middle school to help students prepare for their concert tomorrow. The Port Washington native has been touring the country for the music workshop, hoping to inspire students to express themselves through music. The arts message is creative intelligence, the most important thing and also compassion and emotional intelligence, but we can cry with music. Am I right? Music is all about emotion. More than 500 students from Massapequa School District will be performing at the Orchestra Festival on Tuesday.
