After a very warm stretch of days recently, temperatures will begin to trend lower today on Long Island. Temperatures were in the 80s in many spots during this past work week, even breaking records like on Wednesday. But today, temps will trend into the 70s. Some scattered showers will move through in the morning, but then a mix of sun and clouds will follow in the midday hours. Scattered showers return for the afternoon hours with a light breeze at times.
The weekend is almost here but sadly; there won't be another temperature warmup in sight. Instead, temperatures will trend towards seasonal levels (near the normal high of 59 degrees) for Saturday with a mix of sun and clouds. Sunday though, that will involve staying indoors with on and off rain batches coming through for the day.
The rain showers will clear out by Monday morning, but the temperatures will continue to trend downward. In fact, Monday will be the coldest day we'll have to deal with for next week. Temperatures will struggle to get towards 50 degrees! Thankfully, temperatures will get milder through the rest of the upcoming work week.
