Another Lovely Day in Store at the Shore!

Mornin'! It's 52° this lovely, sunny, mild, calm morning. The stretch of Spring continues as today will be a repeat of every day this week. Today will be mostly sunny with a slight mix of clouds. Breezes are yet to be had this morning but will come later from the East (seabreeze) at 10-15mph cooling us down a bit and giving the island temps of no more than the mid-60's. It'll feel just lovely; although cool. Some folks visit the island for a day trip to the Shore just wearing a summer outfit and flipflops and find it's still too cool for that. Saw it happen yesterday. An entire family from Pennsylvania drove up to the beach; parked; piled out of their mini-van along with sandchairs, blanket, buckets and shovels; wearing summer attire; and they lasted a total of 7 minutes on the beach (I clocked them); back to the vehicle and drove off but not before allowing a plastic grocery trash bag to go flying off in the breeze to clutter our planet with plastic which I did run and retrieve. You can surely enjoy a beach day, just prepare accordingly and be mindful of your trash. It's all good. What's not that good is that it's still looking like a serious chance of rain this weekend...20% on Saturday and 50% on Sunday. Today's tides: High tide:3:54p.m.; Low tide: 9:32a.m.; Ocean temp: 58°; 39 days until Summer!

"Oh, what a beautiful morning, oh, what a beautiful day. I have this wonderful feeling that everything's going my way..."...or something like that.
