Good Morning!

• Today will be sunny, with a high near 85 degrees and a west wind 6 to 8 miles per hour. Tonight is expected to be mostly clear, with a low around 61 degrees. Tomorrow and Friday are expected to be sunny, with highs around 80 degrees.

• Single lane travel is now in effect off-peak, midday between 8:30 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. on Route 114 between Toilsome Lane and Stephen Hands Path in East Hampton, according to the New York State Department of Transportation. The DOT is repairing and repaving a deteriorated section of the road, and expects work to continue through the end of the week.

• The Mattituck-Laurel Civic Association wants to know how you feel about the intersection of Love Lane, the Main Road and Old Sound Avenue, a picturesque corner on the edge of a sharp and dangerous turn. They’ll be meeting tonight at 6:30 p.m. in the basement meeting room of the Mattituck Presbyterian Church, which is right on that bend. More information is online here.

Sag Harbor Pharmacy Medication Disposal GroupL 082515
Sag Harbor Pharmacist Jeff Yohai, Lloyd Magothy Water Trust Executive Director Tom McAbee and Southampton Hospital President and CEO Robert Chaloner show off the new medication disposal box at the Sag Harbor Pharmacy.

• Responsible disposal of expired and unused medications is now more convenient for Sag Harborites, thanks to the Sag Harbor Pharmacy and Southampton Hospital, who have collaborated to put a pharmaceutical collection recepticle at the pharmacy on Main Street in Sag Harbor. The Lloyd Magothy Water Trust, Inc., supplied the collection receptacle, which helps prevent prescription drug abuse and keep medications out of our drinking water.

• Guild Hall hosts an afternoon full of kids’ entertainment today. Illusionist Jason Bishop will be at Guild Hall for two KidFEST performances at 2 p.m. and 5 p.m. [$12-$18] and Citarella will be hosting a cookie-decorating workshop between the shows at 4 p.m. [$5-$10].

• Old-school Latin jazz comes to Agawam Park tonight when Mambo Loco performs a free concert at 6:30 p.m., one of the last concerts of the free summer music season on the East End.

And that’s the way things look at dawn’s light here today.
