Pack an Umbrella for Tonight’s Music on the Rocks

Sea Cliff, NY · July 18, 2026

Saturday morning coffee tastes better with a side of sea breeze, even if the clouds are rolling in. Keep an eye on the horizon if you have outdoor plans for the afternoon.

📰 The Lead

The "Music on the Rocks" series continues tonight at the beach, featuring a local favorite, The Cliff Notes. This weekly tradition is the town's living room during the summer, where the sunset usually provides the backdrop for acoustic sets. However, with a 52% chance of rain forecasted for this evening, the Village Arts Council is keeping a close eye on the radar. If the clouds break, expect the usual spread of picnic blankets and folding chairs on the sand. If the weather turns sour by 4:00 PM, the performance will shift to the Village Hall upstairs theater to keep the instruments dry. A final call will be posted on the community board by the beach entrance. Whether on the sand or under the rafters, the music starts at 6:00 PM sharp.

🌧️ Today's Outlook

  • High 81°F · Low 70°F — Rain (52% chance of precipitation)
