Long Island weather: Clear and sunny on Sunday

Long Islanders can enjoy slightly warmer temperatures on Sunday and into Monday, a mild reprieve from the polar weather last week, according to the National Weather Service.

Saturday night was expected to dip down to 27 degrees, from a high of 35, before Sunday warms up to 43.

Early Monday temperatures will remain in the low 40s before the mercury drops back into the 30s on Tuesday, thanks to weather coming down from the north.

"There's a series of cold fronts coming out of Canada … first one later Monday, and then we have a front Tuesday morning, and another front Wednesday morning. So we'll get cold air reinforcements into midweek," Jay Engle, a meteorologist at the weather service in Upton, said.

Parts of Long Island got a very light dusting of snow early Saturday, as temperatures hovered around freezing in the morning.

Flurries affecting parts of Long Island were so light as to not be measurable, according to the weather service.

"There are no big storms around," said Engle.

Saturday's overcast sky will let up on Sunday, which is expected to be clear and sunny.
