After a gorgeous day across much of Long Island, there will be the chance for just a few passing rain showers overnight and into early Tuesday morning. Much of the night will be dry and mild. After high temperatures ranged from the 50s south and east - to the 60s and 70s north and west today - low temperatures will only drop into the upper 40s to lower 50s overnight. Just have a light rain jacket with you in case you get caught in a couple of light showers.

The wind is going to keep coming in out of the southwest through Wednesday. This means areas along the South Shore and East End will continue to stay much cooler during the afternoons than areas away from the immediate South Shore and East End. Even if you are along the South Shore, though, highs will still be around average for you for this time of year. Nassau County and northwestern Suffolk County will be the places to be if you want to experience afternoon temperatures in the 60s and 70s on Tuesday and Wednesday.

While it will be cooler on Thursday, temperatures over the next 10 days will mostly stay above average. After one day in the upper 40s to lower 50s on Thursday, high temperatures return to the upper 50s to middle 60s on Friday and through the weekend.

There are no washouts of any day this week, but each day will have at least a few showers at some point in the day. Here is the breakdown of when to expect rain this week.

OVERNIGHT TONIGHT INTO EARLY TUESDAY: A few spotty showers, slight chance for a brief early-morning downpour Tuesday, but most of any shower activity will be light. If there is a shower the rest of Tuesday, it would be isolated.

TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY MORNING: A few spotty light rain showers.

WEDNESDAY AFTER 6 P.M. TO 8 A.M. THURSDAY: Off and on moderate rain with a brief thunderstorm. This chance will linger until around 8 a.m. Thursday.

8 A.M. THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY: Nothing worse than a few spotty light rain showers.

EASTER SUNDAY: Dry to start, with an increasing chance for light to moderate rain showers in the evening and at night.

The air over the Long Island Sound, Atlantic Ocean and even the Great South Bay continues to feel cooler and away from the water on Long Island - which you might expect! That said, a small craft advisory will continue for both the ocean and LI Sound through Tuesday with a gusty breeze and waves on the nearby ocean waters up to around 8 feet. Use caution if you have to do some boating!

There is a good reason for that! Tree pollen continues to spike and remains at high levels with maple and juniper being the dominant pollen types right now.

TUESDAY: Early morning spotty rain will give way to some breaks of sunshine by mid-morning. A brief downpour cannot be ruled out with any rain shower in the morning. There will be a wide range of afternoon temperatures with varying amounts of clouds and breaks of sun. Highs will average around 64 degrees. It will be cooler - in the lower to mid-50s for the South Shore and East End. It will be warmer - upper 60s to mid-70s - in Nassau County and northwestern Suffolk County.
