Warm and sunny for now with rain to end work week on Long Island

To the forecast, Rich Hoffman here on Election Day of Tuesday and a great day ahead. Yeah, get outside, go vote for the kids, go have some fun, get to the parks, have some fun out there today. Eventually, and weather looks good around the island, and we are watching a beautiful sunrise here for this morning. We have the dry weather conditions outside our Best Pages studio, lots of sunshine, and your Election Day forecast, mid and upper 60s for your afternoon with the dry, sunny weather conditions around Long Island for today. It's been 16 days, days. Today will be Day 17. We are more than two inches below average in rainfall since October 1st, and we have a few more days of dry weather conditions. Out the door this morning, a bit of a chill, but not bad. 37 degrees right now. West Hampton Beach, 38, Riverhead, 47, Islip, 48, Huntington, 49 right now in Valley Stream. You're at 54 in Montauk, 54 degrees right now. The Big Apple in New York City. Quiet weather conditions from Roslyn to Riverhead, from the Hamptons to Hempstead. Freeport over by the Nautical Mile, your good Oceanside, Babylon, Bellport. Riverhead, as we go throughout the day, we're good today. But notice even on Wednesday, mid and upper 60s to low 70s Wednesday afternoon, we are watching clouds coming in overnight Wednesday into Thursday. So there's changes developing. On Thursday, most of Thursday will actually be dry with temperatures around 70 degrees. There's a chance of a shower in the afternoon. I think a better chance of the showers developing Thursday night. So that'll be our first threat of any wet weather. And you see that rain's coming in by Friday morning. Some of the rain Friday morning could be moderate to heavy at times. There is potential also of a couple of thunderstorms during the day on Friday. We'll track that wet weather and rain totals. Take a look at this. So there's going to be a narrow band of some heavier rain. Right now, it looks to be from Islip eastward. But take a look at this just east of Montauk. There's some one to three to four inch amounts there. So we're going to be watching. Very closely to see what kind of tropical connection this has with the moisture along the Atlantic seaboard. So there is potential some heavy rain coming in for your Friday. Today, enjoy the sunshine, 60s to around 70 degrees. Weather looks great for all your outdoor activity. It's a warm overnight, lows are in the 50s. The potential of fog, some dense fog possible tomorrow morning. And your extended forecast, near 70 degrees the next several days. The threat of heavy rain on Friday and a chance of a shower Saturday morning, Saturday afternoon, and Sunday, the weather will be dry. All right, thank you, Rich.
