Auf Wiedersehen September, Oktober's knocking!

Mornin'!  It's 56° this morning.  Wildwood's become quiet again except for the sound of the surf and waves crashing.  Love when I can hear that so clearly at 6 blocks away. The sky is clear with twinkling stars.  The scientific name for the twinkling of stars is stellar scintillation (or astronomical scintillation). Stars twinkle when we see them from the Earth's surface because we are viewing them through thick layers of moving air in the earth's atmosphere.  The sun's due up in a little over an hour.  It's supposed to be like yesterday with a mix of clouds and sun.  Breezes will be out of the N-NE at 8-10mph.  Temps in the high 60s.  Looks like September's taking her final bow quietly and peacefully!
High tide:5:19p.m.
Low tide:10:54a.m.
Ocean temp:67°
Sunset:6:44p.m.
