Gray Skies Abound

Mornin'!  It's 62° in Wildwood NJ.  It's cloudy with breezes out of the S-SW at 10-15mph.  It'll be a rerun of yesterday with mostly cloudy skies, 20% chance of rain showers, high of 69° and W-SW winds ramping up a bit at 10-20mph.  Tonight... 100% chance of rain with a low of 59°.  Breezes will simmer down at 5-10mph out of the SE.  Tomorrow... 100% chance of rain with a potential for heavy rainfall and very windy with Easterlies at 15-25mph +gusting.  1-2" of rain is expected.  Friday... more of the same with even windier conditions... gusting up to 40mph.  Saturday... the sun returns and Sunday the rain returns.  Keep in mind all the rain up ahead will inevitably create tidal/island flooding and even more than usual with this 2nd Full Moon (Blue Moon or Hunter's Moon) this month that's on tap for this weekend (Halloween-Saturday).  Be aware of high tide times and low-lying areas that flood on the island and do whatever it takes not to drive through flood waters or leave you parked car in flood-prone areas.  Oh... I might as well take time to mention since we're on the coming weekend, it's time to turn the clocks back an hour and end daylight savings time bringing back our lost hour of sleep bringing darkness back into our lives much earlier in the day.  We turn the clocks again on March 14th 2021 giving us those longer days and perhaps a feeling of hope and well-being.
