Full Snow Moon or Hunger Moon Friday

Mornin'!  It's 26° in Wildwood NJ.  It's quite an about face from Wednesday's 51° start to the day.  It feels brutal outside as the winds haven't checked out yet and they're out of the NW at 15-25mph and creating a 14° chill factor.  Who needs this crap?  The teasing is the worst...just give me winter or spring...not both!  I must report we got no snow on the island yesterday.  That storm brought major coastal winds and rains and some tidal flooding but for the most part we got missed on that storm system.  Thankfully.  This early morn we've got clouds (big cumulous ones) that are moving quickly out toward the ocean and sporadically covering the stars and brightly lit sky and full moon.  Looks like a Halloween sky with that moon. I'm always up for a Halloween sky whether it's wintry outside or not.  It's going to be cold today with temps in the low-mid 30s with clouds thrown in as well as  plenty of sunshine.  Winds (unfortunately will stick around) will be out of the W-NW at 15-25mph creating a chill factor.  Tonight...clear and moonlit with temps in the mid 30s and winds switching up from the W-SW at 15-25mph.  The weekend...eh...50/50.  Tomorrow looks like mild temps are back (low-mid 50s) with considerable cloudiness and Sunday...rain but still in the 50s.
