While a couple of additional rain showers will be possible from now and through the overnight hours, the worst weather threat for today is over. The earlier severe thunderstorm watch and flood watch have been allowed to expire for Long Island.

For overnight, we’ll keep the chance for a spotty shower around. Otherwise, expect plenty of clouds and a mild overnight. Low temperatures will only fall into the upper 60s to around 70 degrees.

Tonight's lunar eclipse starts at 10:33 p.m., goes to its maximum at 96% at 12:12 a.m. Friday and the partial eclipse ends at 1:51 a.m.

Most of the day should be dry with high temperatures close to 80 degrees. Friday night will be partly to mostly cloudy with a chance for another spotty shower or storm. Overnight lows will settle into the 60s.

The weekend is looking very nice. Saturday will feature a mixture of sun and clouds with highs in the upper 70s and low 80s. Saturday night stays partly cloudy and comfortable with lows in the 60s. Sunshine returns for Sunday with temperatures close to 80 degrees, and the nice weather continues into Monday with partly sunny skies and highs climbing into the lower 80s.
