Mostly cloudy skies will be with us for much of today, but don't be surprised to see a few breaks of sunshine from time to time. A little more sunshine for areas East of the William Floyd Parkway. We'll also be watching for a couple of spotty showers developing during the afternoon. High temperatures will reach the upper 70s.

Tonight stays mostly cloudy, with a passing showers mainly after midnight. Otherwise, it will be a mild night across Long Island, with overnight lows generally in the 60s. More unsettled weather arrives Tuesday, with plenty of clouds and showers around. Thunderstorms will also develop during the afternoon, and a few could produce brief heavy downpours and gusty winds. Keep the umbrella with you Tuesday, with highs in the upper 70s and lower 80s.
A couple of showers and perhaps a few thunderstorms will continue into Tuesday night, with lows falling into the 60s. Wednesday remains unsettled, with mostly cloudy skies and a few showers at times.
