This Morning’s Bulletin — 3.16.17
Good Morning!
• We’re expecting increasing clouds throughout the day today, with a high near 32 but wind chill values between 5 and 15, with a west wind 17 to 21 miles per hour. Tonight will be mostly clear, with a low around 19. Friday will be sunny, with a high near 40. We’re expecting early morning snow showers on Saturday, then a chance of rain, with a high near 46 degrees.
• International Women’s Day was just one day before Southampton’s Center Stage’s production of “Promises, Promises” opened last week. It was a fitting moment to sit back in your chair at the Southampton Cultural Center and muse over how women have always found ways to stand up for ourselves, while being throughly entertained by performers enthralled with a great Burt Bacharach score and a laugh-out-loud funny Neil Simon script. The show continues tonight for two more weeks. Read our full review online here.
