Mostly Sunny Thursday

Today's Boardwalk Cam - Wildwood

Mornin'!  It's 49° in Wildwood NJ.  It feels like 49° as there's no wind to speak of to give off that seabreeze chill.  It's clear and Ms Sun's risen and has begun warming the island.  A variety of birds are everywhere making their presence known.  Even a hawk giving a scream was skimming right over my house.  It'll be a sunny start with partly sunny skies throughout the day, temps in the mid-60s and Southerly breezes at 10-15mph.  Tonight... partly cloudy, temps in the low-50s and South winds at 5-10mph.  Tomorrow... sunny with some light wispy clouds in the mix, temps in the low-60s and S-SE winds at 10-15mph.  Tomorrow night... cloudy, temps in the upper 50s and S-SE breezes at 5-10mph.  Saturday... 60% chance of rain, temps in the low-60s and S-SW winds at 10-20mph.  Saturday night... 40% chance of rain, temps in the upper 40s and N-NW winds at 20-25mph.  Sunday... sunny, upper 60s and NW winds at 20-25mph +gusting.  Sunday night... clear, temps in the low-50s with N-NW winds at 10-15mph.

Tomorrow just before dawn while the sky is still dark and the moon is out (around 5:30AM), there will be a Triple Conjunction Event.  The Crescent Moon will be the shape of a smile in the sky while Saturn and Venus will be the eyes.  It'll look loosely more like a triangle.  Saturn will be on the right (the smaller looking planet) while Venus will look larger on the left. 

Smokey Skies

Mornin'!  It's 59° in Wildwood NJ.  It's partly cloudy along with smokey conditions due to the wildfires happening in Ocean County (about an 1½ hrs. drive from here in Cape May County). This morning the Ocean Township Police Department posted that the North and Southbound lanes of the GSP (Garden State Parkway) and US 9 are now open.  Also, that evacuation orders remain in effect.  Stay safe everyone!
Back to the weather here at the Cape.  It'll eventually become a pleasant sunny day.  By the way, yesterday we had a truly summer day as we reached 80° for the first time this year!  At the moment, the clouds and smoke are hiding Ms Sun this morning.  The island's smokey with winds out of the N-NE at 10-12mph.  I had to shut the windows as the thick smell of smoke is replacing that salty fresh air in the house. We're going to have a mix of sun and clouds and I guess smoke today (at least until the winds shift) with temps in the low-60s and East winds at 10-15mph.  Tonight... mostly clear, temps around 50° and S-SW winds at 5-10mph.  Tomorrow... partly sunny, temps in the mid-60s and calm SE winds at 5-7mph.  Tomorrow night... clear, temps around 50° with SE winds at 5-10mph.  As for this coming weekend... rain showers and thunderstorms due in for Saturday with temps in the upper 60s and SW winds at 15-25mph.  Sunday... sunny, temps in the mid-60s and N-NW winds at 10-20mph.

Earth Day

Mornin'!  Happy Earth Day!  Earth Day is 55 years old today.  It was first celebrated on this date in 1970.  It is celebrated in numerous ways from community cleanups and tree plantings to engaging in environmental advocacy and education.  Simply taking the time to appreciate the natural world surrounding us is one of the best ways to celebrate (not to mention picking up trash you see along the way and perhaps making a commitment to keep the earth's beauty including our beaches trash-free).  
It's 58° in Wildwood NJ.  Ms Sun is up and shining through the clouds as there are breaks in the cloudy sky here and there and everywhere.  Winds are out of the W-SW at 8-10mph.  It's a perfectly lovely morning.  The birds are cooing, squawking and chirping everywhere.  We're going to have a mostly sunny morning followed by mostly cloudy skies this afternoon.  Temps will tap 70° with West winds at 10-15mph.  Tonight... cloudy with clearing late into the overnight, temps in the mid-50s and NW winds at 5-10mph.  Tomorrow... mix of sun and clouds, temps around 60° and East winds at 10-15mph.  Tomorrow night... clear, temps in the low-50s and Southerly winds at 5-10mph.  We never got any rain yesterday or last night and aren't supposed to see rainfall until Saturday.  You might want to water those plants, seedlings or the soil where the seeds have been planted.  Besides picking up someone else's trash, tending to your garden is a perfect Earth Day activity!

Gray Monday

This Morning's Webcam Shot - North WW

Mornin'!  Rest in peace Pope Francis.  He was the 7th Pope in my lifetime.  The "mourning" doves are loud and clear this morning.  All that cooing is usually associated with peace, love and tranquility.  It seems to all work together with this morning's news and weather.
