LIFORECAST

I've had some great weather today. The big question is if it will stay and when rain will be back. Yeah, so we are looking for this to stay at least the next couple of days, Melanie, but we do need to bring out the umbrellas once again early parts of next week. But until then, let's focus on the big thing, the elephants in the room, which is Mother's Day in itself. So our first forecast was Sunday. It is going to be beautiful for us. So enjoy outdoors with mom if that's what she likes to do, but in general. We're looking for a fantastic day from start to finish. Mother's Day will have a simply beautiful, a winter for mom in general with lots of sunshine and temperatures into the 70s, and walking through our future cast, not a whole lot of issues across the board, if any, have in our forecast because we're looking at plenty of open sky on top of the temperatures that are gonna be very comfortable throughout the course of the day. As we get to next week, we're starting off pretty nice on Monday. A few clouds will start to roll in. By our Monday evening, but still dry up until we get to the overnight hours and early Tuesday morning. Then we're expecting to see a bit more scattered showers throughout Tuesday into Tuesday night and especially for Wednesday as well. So those are gonna be the two days that we're really gonna be monitoring for us to see any real wet weather will be for Tuesday and for Wednesday. A quick look at our 10 day forecast. Once we're done with the wet weather, we have a dry period before the weekend. I've had some great weather today. The big question is if it will stay and when rain will be back.

A very cloudy and even rainy scenario is unfolding over the tri-state area and will hang on at least through Wednesday night.

Eta Aquarids Meteor Shower

Meteor Shower May

Don't get your hopes up about the annual May meteor shower known as the Ada Aquarids because it looks like the weather is not going to cooperate. The peak will occur Monday night and into Tuesday morning. That's May 5th into May 6th. And if we had a clear sky, you would want to go out late and look towards the east after midnight when the constellation Aquarius rises. That is the radiant point of the shower, but unfortunately. It looks like the weather is going to get in the way. We are looking at clouds and showers over the entire tri-state area all the way into next week. But anyway, here's what you would need to know. This is actually debris from Haley's comet. We all know about Haley's comet. This comet's been observed since 240 BC, and you would want to look late after midnight. Now you don't have to look directly at the constellation, but that's actually the radiant point where it appears that the radiant. That the meteors are gonna come from. This is known as a medium shower in the northern hemisphere. It is way better in the southern hemisphere. Our shower would be seen very low on the horizon, so we may miss the peak this time, but no worries. You could see a meteor or two through the end of the month, and fingers crossed, the weather will be nice for the full moon, the flower moon coming up on May 12th in the weather center.

Long Islanders bask in warmer weather on Easter weekend

Perfect weather that we have been graced with here on the island for the holiday weekend. So many people are outside enjoying the sun and the warmth as they should. Even our very own Logan Crawford at Eisenhower Park right now. What a great day to be out, Logan. What are you seeing out there? Nikita, people are out and about here at Eisenhower Park. We've seen those taking advantage of the walking trails here. Kids are out on the playground swinging on the swings, using the slides, but no matter what the activity, people here are definitely seizing the day. Nice weather out, so we gotta make sure we're outside finally, right? Yeah, it's been a long winter. The long awaited summer like weather has hit Long Island. People went to Eisenhower Park in East Meadow to make the most of it. We're just having a picnic, enjoying the nice weather, getting, you know, some sunburn. From picnicking to the playground, families and friends enjoyed it all. My daughter loves the playgrounds, the slides, she's so into it and then just to be around all the other kids is very nice for her, you know. A lot of people at the park got some exercise in too, taking a walk, going for a run, playing some tennis. A lot of fun, not playing very well, but in fact I'm out getting some sun and sweating. It's all good. There was even an outdoor class on how to swing the trapeze. All in all, people at Eisenhower Park say they're having a good day. By year for today and then tomorrow, you know, celebrate Easter, enjoy the nice weather with some friends and family. Fingers crossed for a nice day tomorrow too and hopefully everyone got to get outside for a little today. If not, the park should be open for a little while longer if you want to sneak in some outdoor activities. We're in East Meadow, Nassau County, Logan Crawford, News 12.
