Good morning, friends! I'm back with your fresh copy of the Sachem Daily. Let's get this day started off right, with a quick guide to everything you need to know about what's going on in town.


First, today's weather:

Partly sunny and warmer. High: 84 low: 64.


Here are the top 3 stories in Sachem today:

  1. Check out five open houses coming up in the Town of Brookhaven. The homes range from Bohemia to Islip, and you can get more information by clicking the link. (Sachem Patch)
  2. Ronkonkoma Beach closed for swimming a second time. Water bacteria levels are at an excess of acceptable criteria, according to Suffolk County Department of Health Services. The beach will reopen when it is deemed safe. Beaches all over Suffolk County have been closed recently, and many have since been reopened. (Patch)
