FARMINGDALE, N.Y. — Rain, rain, go away.

Wednesday looks like another great one, with highs on Long Island reaching 77 degrees under cloudy skies and light south winds, according to the Weather Channel.
Thursday is when the story changes. The high is 73, low of 68, but there's a 76 percent chance of rain with showers and thunderstorms beginning early in the day and lasting into the night.
If there's a bright spot, it's the weekend looks grand with highs of 81 on Friday and 78 on Saturday and Sunday.
But as of now, Thursday is looking like a possible wash.
The PGA of America adjusted the interview schedule for Wednesday and Thursday, moving most of the final interviews to the latter. Practice rounds could be impacted, as could the singles matches of the Junior Ryder Cup, which are scheduled to take place.
