2024 Is Here! Happy New Year!

Mornin'!  Happy New Year!  Welcome 2024!  I made it for the "ball drop" at midnight and it was very quiet here in my neighborhood.  It's nothing like the big City on New Years Eve at midnight. 
It's 43° in Wildwood NJ.  There's barely a breeze out of the SW at 1-2mph.  It's cloudy much like  yesterday with an opening along the horizon just enough for Ms Sun to peek in at us.  We may have some rain today.  There's been no mention of it until now and after a mostly cloudy morning, there's a 50% chance of rain this afternoon.  Temps will be in the upper 40s with N-NW winds at 5-10mph.  Tonight... 60% chance of rain, becoming cloudy afterward, cold with temps in the low-30s and North winds making it feel even colder at 10-20mph.  Tomorrow... sunny, temps in the mid-40s and blustery with winds out of the N-NW at 10-20mph.  As for Philly it looks almost like our weather only with a cloudy day on tap, 30% chance of showers possible but later this afternoon, temps around 45° and N-NE winds at 5-10mph.  I checked the internet and it looks like The Mummers Parade is still on with no mention of any cancellations due to weather.  There's nothing like a good Mummers Parade (been to many of them). The costumes, colors, music and energy can't be compared. I'm sure you can "stream" it from anywhere in the country too!  May 2024 be kind to us and bring us only good health and happiness! Happy New Year everyone!

Oh, I forgot to mention that it's tradition to have pork on New Year's Day and the pork is getting cooked here today!  Pork and Sauerkraut to be exact! Superstition has it that because a pig roots forward, eating pork on NY Day helps us to move ahead.  I'm not superstitious just love pork.
