Shark Warning System + Cedarhurst Park Concert

Morning, neighbors! It's me again, your host of the Five Towns Daily.

Tonight is another free music night in Cedarhurst Park. Sharks are still popping up this summer so Jones Beach plans to use a shark flag warning system. Northwell Health is another LI employer that will require employees to get the COVID-19 vaccination or have to undergo weekly tests.

First, today's weather will be humid and mostly cloudy throughout the day with a high of 82 and a low of 74 degrees.

Here are the top stories in Five Towns today:
