Question I am planning an outdoor wedding on July 24th in Centerport, Long Island. Can
you tell me what to expect as far as the weather is concerned. ALso, Would you
be able to tell me when the sun will set on that date as well!
The date is too far in the future for an accurate forecast.
Forecasts of between 4 and 7 days can be given accurately depending on the season and location.
In the winter season, the storm systems move faster thus making accuracy fall off after a few days.
Summer is easier with accuracy as much as several days attainable.
The location factor has to do with the geographic proximity to the storm track; southern locations typically are more distant from storminess.
