THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT

After a nice day with high temperatures in the 70s across Long Island, it will be a comfortable evening with temperatures gradually dropping back down through the 60s. While there is a slight chance for a passing raindrop, most of the evening is dry and variably cloudy. It will become just partly cloudy for overnight with low temperatures in the 50s for early Wednesday morning.

A FEW DAYS OF SUMMER-LIKE WARMTH

The humidity will stay pretty low, but the heat will definitely turn up through the rest of the week! Highs on Wednesday will be in the 70s to low 80s, with more widespread lower 80s on Thursday and the hottest day of this week will be Friday with high temperatures in the upper 80s to near 90 degrees away from the South Shore and East End. It will be a little cooler, but still enjoyable and summer-like at the beaches. Use sunscreen to avoid getting a burn in as little as 10 to 15 minutes. It will stay mostly in the 80s to start the weekend on Saturday, but then 70s for highs are on the way Sunday through most of next week.
