With regards to the weather Friday will be a hot day and definitely a beach day with sunshine into the afternoon before a cold front approaches. The question is whether there will be some showers and thunderstorms Friday evening.
The NAM model is showing a broken line of thunderstorms moving through between 11pm and Midnight Friday night. It does not show much in the late afternoon or evening. Frankly the dynamics are not impressive though they may favor stronger thunderstorms (if they happen) over Central & Eastern Long Island and less to the west. The Storm Prediction Center has Long Island at a marginal risk for severe weather Friday evening.
Saturday will be the hottest day this weekend and with a northwest wind there will be no sea breeze so temperatures will be in the 90s even at the beaches. The sea breeze will probably not be a factor so the beaches will be rather brutal unless you cool off in the ocean.
