Mornin'!  Lucy, I'm home!  It was yet another wonderful Mother's Day and long weekend with my family.  I will admit, that ol' salt air and sound of the gulls was almost just as wonderful as hubby and I sailed the Ferry home to Cape May!  Leaving the South (Georgia) and their summer weather and lushness was a bit of a struggle but I realize that Wildwood's only weeks away from that heat and humidity.  38 days until Summer to be exact.
It's 56° in Wildwood NJ.  It's currently cloudy and gloomy.  We had some light rain only minutes ago.  In fact, we had a good watering overnight. This morning rain looks like it'll stick around for a little while more and check out by this afternoon as these rain clouds move on over and provide a little sunshine on the island.  We'll definitely see breaks of sunshine today.  Temps will get into the mid-60s.  It's currently still with barely a breeze out of the NW and will ramp up at 10-20mph by late afternoon / early evening.  Tonight... partly clear with some clouds in the mix, temps down to 50° and NW winds still sticking around at 10-20mph.  Tomorrow... partly sunny, temps in the mid-upper 60s and W-NW winds at 10-20mph.  Tomorrow night... partly cloudy, temps in the mid-50s and West winds at 10-15mph.  As for this weekend... Saturday will be sunny with temps in the upper 60s and S-SW winds at 10-20mph.  Saturday night... partly cloudy, temps in the low-60s and S-SW winds at 10-20mph.  Sunday... partly sunny with cloudy conditions off and on, temps in the low-70s and SW winds at 5-10mph.  Sunday night... partly cloudy, temps in the low-60s and S-SW winds at 5-10mph.  By the way, the New Moon is Saturday.  We won't see the moon but, we'll feel it's pull on our tides!  Speaking of "feel", it feels nice to be home!  Oh, and it was an exciting surprise to see my freshly planted gardens flourishing along with the Ferris Wheel re-installed as we traversed the crown of the George Redding bridge coming onto the island!

The time has once again come for a mini-hiatus on the ol' weather blog.  This will be my last post until May 14th.  It's family time and for the most part do not do a laptop "take-along" for those moments (Mother's Day, Birthdays etc).  If you need weather for Wildwood, you know what to do.  Go to my blog page on the right for my "Personal Favs" and find and click on "Weather - Wunderground" and type in either Wildwood NJ or 08260 and you'll have the most accurate weather possible in my opinion.  The tides, sunsets, ocean temps, Calendar of Events etc. are also under Personal Favs.  Help yourself and I'll see ya on the other side! Happy Mother's Day to all you Mothers out there!
