Advisories and Warnings Posted

3rd & JFK - North Wildwood
Mornin'!  "Whew" is the first word that comes to my mind this early morn.  Wildwood's in the midst of a Nor'easter.  The gale force winds have been relentless since yesterday afternoon.  At the moment, they're wailing and loud and shaking things up...my house for one.  The canvas awnings, trees and outdoor plants have been getting slammed since early last evening.  It's 60° in Wildwood under cloudy, rainy and extreme windy conditions. Nor'easters like to shake things up a bit and this one's no exception.  We've already begun to see some serious beach erosion here.  Gale Warnings are posted as Winds are out of the E-NE at 25-30mph sustained +gusting.  Winds-are-a-howling and moving down the street sounding much like a freight train.  No tidal flooding at the moment, but from 11-4 today a Coastal Flood Advisory will be posted.  The bad news is...it's continuing throughout the entire holiday weekend.  Oh well...Mother Nature always has the last word!
