Long Island weather: Mostly sunny with highs in the 60s
Wednesday’s forecast calls for mostly sunny skies and a high temperature of 63 degrees before falling to a nighttime low of 44, according to the National Weather Service.
Temperatures will be similar to the last couple days but a bit cooler, particularly out east, due to a sea breeze, said weather service meteorologist John Cristantello.
It was 44 degrees as of 4:56 a.m., the weather service said.
Similar weather is expected for Thursday, with a high of 61 and a low of 43, and a calm wind predicted, according to the forecast, taken at Islip’s Long Island Mac Arthur Airport, which is a major measuring station in the area for the weather service.
After partly sunny skies Friday — with a high of 56 and a low of 45 expected — there’s a chance of showers on Saturday, Sunday and Monday, with temperatures in the 40s and 50s predicted.
