Morning, neighbors! It's me again, Andrew Tessler, your host of the Sachem Daily.

First, today's weather:

Mostly sunny. High: 35 low: 22.

Here are the top stories today in Sachem:

  1. Take a look at the weather forecast for this weekend. As we head into the first weekend of March, the high temperatures will nearly double from Friday to Sunday. Friday is much colder with highs in the low 30s, but Sunday will bring near record high temperatures with possible rain early in the day. Overall, expect a warmer weekend, with rain Sunday morning. (Sachem Patch)
  2. Check out 5 new homes for sale in the area. As frustrating as it is to search for a home, we collaborate with Redfin to make it just a little easier for you. We give you the newest and freshest homes to hit the market on a weekly basis. This week the homes include a listing in the Bay Shore area with 4 beds and 2 baths for $479,316, and another in the Brookhaven area with 4 beds and 2.5 baths for $699,000. (Sachem Patch)
  3. ICYMI: COVID-19 case update as schools drop mask mandate. In positive news, we've updated you far less on COVID-19 numbers as the pandemic hopefully comes to an end. With schools ending the mask mandate today, we figured it would be good to give one more update on what's going on. There will be no more updates in the newsletter unless numbers dramatically change. In the latest report, there were only 67 positive COVID-19 cases, and a 1% seven-day positivity rate. (Press Release Desk)
