Tropical Storm Henri is approaching the Northeast, reports have said that the storm could hit Long Island. Right now when you check your weather app, it might say there's a hurricane watch from the National Weather Service. This doesn't necessarily mean that we're getting a hurricane, but people should still be ready in case it does come our way. Therefore people should have plenty of food and water, avoid long drives, stay indoors when there's heavy rainfall and avoid shorelines due to possible flooding. More details to come over the weekend.
Moderate rain, with a high of 85 and low of 64 degrees. Cloudy during the morning, sunny in the afternoon, clear for the evening, overcast overnight.
