Marine Forecast
Boaters and those near the Hudson River and Long Island Sound should expect a difficult stretch of weather this weekend. A steady easterly wind will strengthen, bringing choppy conditions with waves on the Sound building to around 4 to 6 feet and gusts approaching 30 knots at times. Periods of rain and reduced visibility will make navigation more challenging, especially into Sunday, and small craft advisories are in effect. Conditions begin to improve on Memorial Day as winds ease, though some lingering showers and unsettled water may persist early before a gradual calming trend.
