April Fool's Day

This Morning's Webcam Shot - North WW

Mornin'!  April's in the house!  Welcome!  She checked in a midnight bringing with her a good dosing of rain and wind not to mention thunder and lightning. That monthly weather opener has begun to settle down now as all that storm system seems to be out to sea.  It's 48° as Ms Sun has just begun to bring her rays as she's moved above that large cloud mass. The ocean side of the island has been completely cloud covered unlike the backside (marsh side) which is clear skies. Winds are stiff out of the NW at 20-25mph +gusting. Feels more like 40° right now.  It looks like we're going to have a mix of sun and clouds today (mostly sun) with gusty winds in the morning. Winds will be gusty most of the day then will settle down this afternoon out of the NW at 10-15mph. Temps are going into the mid-50s.  Tonight... clear, temps in the low-40s and N-NE winds at 10-15mph.  Tomorrow... partly sunny, some clouds in the mix, temps in the low-50s and East winds at 10-20mph.  Tomorrow night... mostly cloudy, temps in the upper 40s and NE winds at 10-15mph.
