Question
I'm getting marry outdoors  Saturday September 19, 2009 in long island NY what is the weather usually like around that time.  did i make a good decision, please help ease my anxiety.  thank you

Answer
Patricia,

Barring any hurricanes or tropical storms, September is a very nice month weather wise. The normal high temperature on the 19th is 74, and the normal low temperature is 56. The record high temperatures at that time of year are well up in the 80s, while record low temperatures are in the mid to upper 40s. As a general run of thumb, it rains about once every three or four days in September.
I hope this helped!

Sincerely,
