Cold Front Inches East But Long Island Stays Mostly Dry Until Later Thursday
We are seeing one last nice day for Long Island as high pressure moves out to the east. Some clouds are in the mix and there are other clouds to the west and south but on the whole we should be partly sunny for the majority of this Tuesday. The wind off the ocean is keeping temperatures from climbing much and most highs this afternoon will be in the middle 70s including shore locations. It is a typical last day of summer as the new season of Autumn arrives Wednesday.

During tonight we will see what typically happens with a high to the northeast and an onshore flow. Low clouds will likely develop and temperatures will hold in the 60s. The flow will turn from onshore northeast to southeast and eventually south. The front to the west is going to only slowly move east so we expect Long Island to see a mostly cloudy to partly sunny Wednesday. We will throw in the chance for a brief shower but the rain from the approaching cold front will likely not reach Long Island until later Thursday or Thursday night. Highs will be in the 70s both Wednesday and Thursday. For now most of the risk for any severe weather lies to our west Thursday touching Nassau County. The south wind should help alleviate any severe weather risks.
Friday sees the front linger for awhile and there might be a few lingering showers early before weather conditions genuinely improve later in the day. We will see a big drop in humidity later Friday and that carries us through the weekend and into next week. A cold front in the Western Great Lakes is weak and likely has little impact as it passes through over the weekend so look for no worse than partly sunny skies for both Saturday and Sunday. Highs both days will be in a range of 70 to 75.
