First, today's weather:

Mostly sunny and breezy. High: 59 low: 43.

Here are the top stories today in Sachem:

  1. Suffolk Arrest Report: March 20. Take a look at the newest arrest report released by Suffolk County. You can see all recent arrests made along with arrests made in local precincts. If you have any information on a crime, you can anonymously call Suffolk County Crime Stoppers at 1-800-221-TIPS. Many times, cash rewards will be given for information that leads to an arrest.

  2. Weekly weather brings rain, seasonable temperatures. As we head into the official mark of spring, we have plenty of rain coming in this week. Temperatures will be seasonable all week in the 50s but expect rain Wednesday-Friday. We end the week with a cold front coming in that will start next week off with temperatures reaching the high 40s. Enjoy the nice day today as it's supposed to be clear with a high near 60.

  3. ICYMI: Daylight savings may be coming to an end. Is it finally time that changing the clocks twice a year comes to an end? That's what the U.S Senate thinks after they voted unanimously on the "Sunshine Protection Act". "The act of springing clocks back and forward is an antiquated pain, not to mention a safety and health hazard," Senator (D) Skoufis said, adding that studies suggest a later sunset could lead to a reduction in energy consumption, crime, and vehicular/pedestrian fatalities.
