Hey, neighbors. It’s me, Debora Whitehead, your host of the Port Jefferson Daily — back in your inbox with all the most important things happening in our community today. Let’s do this…
First, today’s weather:

Here are the top 5stories today in Port Jefferson:
- Are you aware of menu prices at Tara’s Inn’s longtime restaurant in Port Jefferson? The spot has received excellent reviews on Yelp and Google for its costs and food quality. Located at 1519 Main St, the eatery offers a deal of $2 for burgers and sandwiches; who can beat that on Long Island? (Daily Voice)
- West Meadow beach is closed for swimming because bacteria found in the water can cause gastrointestinal issues and infections in the eye and throat.
