Mostly sunny skies with temperatures climbing into the upper 60s and lower 70s this afternoon. It will be breezy, though, with wind gusts around 20 to 30 mph, so you’ll definitely notice that wind despite the mild temperatures.
Tonight, you’ll want to grab the heavier jacket because colder air is moving in. We’ll have mostly clear skies with temperatures dropping into the mid-40s across much of Long Island. The breeze will stick around for a while, making it feel even colder, especially later tonight and early Tuesday morning.
Tuesday is looking like a beautiful fall day with plenty of sunshine, but it will be cooler. High temperatures will generally stay in the 60s. Then get ready for a chilly Tuesday night into Wednesday morning. Under clear skies, temperatures will fall to around 40 to 45 degrees, with some of the colder locations around the Pine Barrens potentially dipping into the upper 30s. Some patchy frost is possible.
Wednesday keeps the nice weather going. We’ll have lots of sunshine with highs in the mid-60s. It’s one of those classic fall days — a chilly start, comfortable during the afternoon and plenty of sunshine from start to finish.
By Thursday, temperatures begin to rebound. We’re back into the lower 70s with mostly sunny skies and another dry day. So the big weather story this week is that brief shot of chilly fall air Tuesday night into Wednesday morning, followed by a nice warmup heading toward the end of the week.
