It's officially the weekend in Wildwood!

Mornin'!  It's 69° in Wildwood.  It's still a bit dark but the sky is clear and starlit.  Ms Sun's on her way as the horizon is brightening as I blog.  It'll be partly sunny / partly cloudy today with temps in the low-mid 70s and breezes out of the E-NE at 20-28mph (another bad hair day). Tonight...more of the same with temps in the mid 60s and breezes remaining ramped up out of the East at 20-25mph.
High tide:5:56a.m. and 6:21p.m.
Low tide:11:57a.m.
Ocean temp:71°
Sunset:6:53p.m.
UV Index: "5" moderate
Rip Currents: High (dangerous conditions)
The Weekend: Here's the latest updated weekend weather...
     Saturday...mostly cloudy, very windy and low 70s, possible rain later in the evening
     Sunday...mostly cloudy, remaining very windy, low 70s and a chance of rain (30-40% chance)
     Monday...cloudy, windy, mid 70s and a chance of rain (50%)
     Important Note: The Full (Super) Moon is this coming weekend so be aware of the high tides and coastal flooding.
I'll continue to keep an eye on the weekend weather with the big line-up of festivities in Wildwood happening and I'll note any changes.
I took a walk on the boardwalk last night and the motels and condos are packed with visitors and weekend vacationers.  It's classic car weekend and those beautiful classic pristine conditioned cars and hot rods are everywhere showing off and loudly displaying their roaring engines.  I thought I was in the movie "American Graffiti" at one point!  Love 'em.  At the South end of the island in Wildwood Crest it's Seafarers Celebration Weekend with a 2-day Street Fest with live music, good eats, fireworks and family fun.  On the other end (North Wildwood) of the isle the Irish Fall Festival begins it's 4day - 24th annual Irish fest beginning this afternoon on Old New Jersey Avenue. Erin Go Bragh and Slainte!
