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
