Mostly cloudy skies are in place today, and it’s going to be a breezy one. Winds could gust as high as 35 miles per hour at times, so hold onto anything loose if you’re heading outside. Temperatures will climb into the 50s for many spots, with some western areas of Nassau County reaching into the 60s. As we head toward the evening, there’s the chance for a few showers to begin developing after 5pm.

Those showers become more widespread overnight, so expect wet road conditions if you’re out late or early Tuesday morning. It’s a good idea to allow for some extra travel time. Overnight lows will settle into the 40s by daybreak Tuesday.

Tuesday starts off on a cloudy note with showers around, but conditions will gradually improve as we head into the afternoon. We’ll see some breaks of sunshine developing, helping temperatures rebound into the 60s for much of the area. Areas of western Suffolk into Nassau county could reach the 70s.

Looking ahead to Wednesday, we warm things up a bit more. Expect some morning sunshine followed by increasing clouds, and there will be a chance for a few late-day showers or even thunderstorms. Highs will range through the 60s, with some western parts of Nassau County possibly reaching the 70s. By the end of the workweek, clouds stick around with a somewhat unsettled pattern, and highs holding in the 50s.
