A Day That Will Live In Infamy

Mornin'!  It's 39° in Wildwood and the anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor...73 years ago...a day that will live in infamy. I've been to that incredibly memorable monument in Hawaii on the island of Oahu and it was a very unforgettable moment in my life.  Boarding the monument from a small launch and then stepping over the USS Arizona which lies buried beneath the crystal clear water and knowing that it's a burial site is extremely emotional and very difficult to describe. Here are some interesting facts about the Arizona...  http://www.history.com/news/5-facts-about-pearl-harbor-and-the-uss-arizona.
Today's forecast...the clouds are still checked in but will be sliding over a bit for Ms Sun.  It's gray but bright at the moment as she's trying to shine down.  All forecasts are saying mostly sunny/partly cloudy today.  Temps will go into the upper 40s as the Winds wift (I mean waft) in.  In fact, the winds will be the star attraction as they'll be ramping up from the N-NE at 30-35mph with 40mph gusts.  I'm sure there's a nice chill factor tagging along with those gusts!  Tonight...clear and the winds subside some as temps drop into the upper 20s.  Tomorrow...the rains return.
High tide:8:04a.m.

Ocean temp:52°
Sunset:4:33p.m.
