Gray Start

Mornin'!  It's 74° in Wildwood NJ.  The blog's a bit later as I decided to do some things before sitting at the computer.  One thing was an early morning bike ride on the boardwalk.  Then, walk the pooch.  Then, collect and put the trash to the curb (trash day).  The bike ride was terrific (not to mention it's my new bike which handles like a charm)!  It seemed like I was the only one on the boardwalk as there was hardly any folk up and about.  Only two stores were open...an eatery and a bike rental (Dunkin Donuts which never closes was CLOSED).  So, I caught a pretty decent sunrise (My Instagram) but it'll definitely be a cloudy start to the week.  It's currently cloudy with humidity hanging around (humidity's 87% with a dewpoint of 74°).  The breezes are light out of the E-SE at 10-13mph.  Just perfect for some wind resistance when bike peddling.  Today will be mostly cloudy and no forecasts are mentioning peeks of sunshine.  In fact, there's a 30% chance of showers by later afternoon / early evening.  Temps may tap 80° with breezes picking up out of the SE at 15-18mph +gusting.  Tonight...cloudy with 60% chance of showers and/or thunderstorms as temps drop back to where they are now...low-mid 70s.  We'll probably see rain overnight and into the start to tomorrow.  So far, no mention of any major remnants of Hurricane Florence.  It appears she's headed Northwest of us.
