Long Monday, Lingering from Overnight, forecasters say.
The day, however, is expected to be at a higher temperature and normal temperature.
A special marine statement is in effect through 6:30 am, reporting strong thunderstorms in the area of the Fire Island Inlet to Montauk Point, moving east northeast to shore. As they reach land, they could bring a quick, heavy downpour, and gusts to 30 mph, said Jay Engle, a National Weather Service meteorologist in Upton.
Look for the day to be on the breezy side, warming up to around 57 degrees at MacArthur Airport Long Island in Ronkonkoma, where the normal high for the day is 59 and the normal low is 42.
Winds from the west of 9 to 13 mph, gusting to 22 mph, were expected, the National Weather Service said.
As of just before 5 a.m., the airport was seen with a temperature of 54 degrees.
The night hours cool down to the upper 30s by early morning Tuesday, which the weather service says goes to "a good deal of sunshine." Temperatures were expected to rise to the mid-50s. Wednesday should also see sunny skies, with temperatures climbing to the mid-60s.
Thursday is partly sunny, warming up a couple of degrees further, and showers will likely enter the picture Friday.
