Mornin'! It's 66° in Wildwood NJ. Humidity's 84% with a dewpoint of 62°. We're under a Coastal Flood and Wind Warning. It's not raining yet (currently just misty) but the rain's just about to hit the coast. The winds are certainly part of this morning's very noisy weather drama... 30-35mph +gusting out of the E-NE. The tides are currently "low" so there's no flood water in the streets "yet". Expect a windy and rainy day with temps in the upper 60s and NE winds at 25-40mph +gusting. Chance of rain is 100% beginning any time now. Tonight... windy with rain, temps in the low-60s and N-NE winds at 25-40mph +gusting. Chance of rain is 80%. Tomorrow... windy with morning showers evolving to a steady, soaking rain (70% chance), temps in the upper 60s and N-NE winds a 25-35mph +gusting. Tomorrow night... steady rain, temps in the upper 50s and North winds at 20-30mph +gusting. For the Coastal Flood Warning... 2-3 feet of inundation above ground level expected in low-lying areas and surrounding tidal waterways from 8AM this morning to 8PM Monday. If you're not prepared, time's running out. Secure outside items as the winds and flood waters will have their way with them. There's always the chance of losing power so have your electronics charged, a supply of batteries, candles, lanterns etc. Flood waters are imminent... do not go out and drive around in these salt waters as they will damage the undercarriage of your vehicle as well as create wakes which will damage any properties you drive by. Speaking of vehicles... find that higher ground on the island near you as there are parts of the island that normally do not flood so park it there. Know your low-lying areas and know your high tide times. The ocean's high tide is an hour before the bay/marsh side of the island's high tide times. Be Safe. Be careful and be Smart!
