Gloomy Sunday

Mornin'!  It's 46° in Wildwood NJ.  Winds are out of the NE at 20-30mph +gusting making it feel more like 37°.  There's a "gale warning" in effect from now (6AM) until tonight at 8PM.  It's gray and misty with that ol' ocean spray and whatever those clouds are dishing out.  It's a miserable morning out there.  And, it'll be like that all day at least until around 5 or 6 o'clock when we could see peeks of sun.  Could make for a nice sunset tonight albeit windy. Expect gray skies, 20% chance of rain or mist, temps around 51° feeling more like the mid-40s with those NE winds at 20-30mph +gusting over 40mph.  Tonight... things begin to simmer down as cloud begin checking out and clear skies start to form, temps in the low-mid 40s and N-NE winds at 10-20mph.  Tomorrow... sunny, warmer with temps in the low-60s and NE winds still ramping at 15-25mph.  Tomorrow night... clear, temps in the low-mid 40s and NE winds back to normal at 10-15mph.  Tuesday... mix of sun and clouds starting out the day then becoming cloudy, temps around 60° with E-NE winds at 5-10mph.  There's a slight chance of a rain shower around dinner time.

Not-So-Sunny-Saturday

A Webcam View of the Boards looking North

Mornin'!  It's 52° in Wildwood NJ.  Right now it's gray as Ms Sun is trying to brighten the sky with some of her colors along the ocean's horizon.  By the looks of the rest of the cloudy sky, I'm not too optimistic on any sunshine this morning.  But, who knows?  By the way, we had rain overnight thankfully as all my new outdoor plants, seeds and seedlings I'm sure are grateful too.  Forecasters are predicting a mostly cloudy day with 40% chance of rain.  Current winds are out of the E-SE at 15-20mph and will ramp up even more out of the East at 20-30mph.  Tonight... 90% chance of rain, temps in the mid-40s and E-NE winds at 25-35mph.  Tomorrow...  another gray day with 25-30% chance of rain in the morning, cloudy in the afternoon, temps around 50° and N-NE winds at 20-30mph.  Tomorrow night... partly cloudy, temps around 44° and N-NE winds at 15-25mph.  Monday... plentiful sunshine, temps around 60° and NE winds at 10-20mph.  Monday night... clear skies, temps in the upper 40s and NE winds at 10-15mph.

Earth Day

Aerial of Wildwood NJ and my House

Mornin'!  Happy Earth Day!  Founded in 1970 by U.S. Senator Gaylord Nelson following a massive oil spill.  Our planet is an amazing place and always needing our help to thrive!  Each year on this date, more than a billion people celebrate the Earth in some way and do what they can to protect our planet from things like pollution and deforestation.  By taking part in activities (which should be done on a daily basis not just once a year) such as not throwing or leaving trash thoughtlessly, picking up litter even when it's not yours. Remember, trash and plastics inevitably get blown into the ocean and marsh and as the fish consume our trash and plastics, then we consume the fish. They suggest planting trees, create a pollinator garden for bees and butterflies, composting, recycling, switch to reusable items, reducing meat consumption, keep from impulsively allowing water to run, turning off lights etc. The lights left on is sore spot for me. It's amazing the number of residents who come to their homes here just weekends and off and on during the summer but leave their outdoor (and some indoor) lights on throughout the entire year.  Why???  It's disgraceful.  It's wasteful energy providing light pollution at its very worst.  Not only are their outdoor lights shining into my home, there's no star-gazing as the sky is no longer clearly visible at night or how about saving electric with all their lighting carelessly left on especially in the dead of Winter. Let's all try to be more conscientious and keep our world a more thoughtful, happier, healthier place. 
On to the weather... it's 50° in Wildwood NJ.  It's partly cloudy as Ms Sun's up and trying to shine through the some of that morning cloud cover.  Winds are out of the South at 10-15mph.  It'll be a partly to mostly cloudy day today.  It'll start out mostly sunny becoming cloudy later this morning, then by late afternoon, the sunshine is back.  Temps will be in the low-mid 60s with S-SW winds at 10-20mph.  There's a 25% chance of rain sometime before noon.  Tonight... clear, moonlit skies, temps around 50° and light and variable winds.  Tomorrow... partly sunny and turning warmer.  Temps will be in the mid-upper 60s with North winds shifting from the SW at 10-15mph.  Tomorrow night... partly cloudy, temps in the low-50s and NW winds at 5-10mph.  Friday... mix of sun and clouds, temps in the upper 50s and East winds at 10-15mph.  Friday night... temps in the mid-upper 40s with 25% chance of rain.  Saturday... 70% chance of rain along with windy conditions (East 20-30mph), temps in the mid-50s.  Saturday night... 75% chance of rain, temps in the mid-40s and still blustery.  Sunday... 65% chance of rain kicking off the day, temps in the low-50s and NE winds at 15-25mph.  Sunday night... 20% chance of rain, temps in the upper 40s.

Sunny Tuesday

Wildwood Beach - Still No Ferris Wheel
Mornin'!  Winter's back!  It's 36° feeling more like 31° with the N-NE winds at 5-10mph.  Thankfully, I have a gas fireplace in the living room which takes the chill out of the first floor within minutes.  The furnace is "closed for the season" and I'm abiding by it.  Ms Sun's up this morning as there's not a cloud in the sky.  It'll be a sunny day with temps in the low-mid 50s and S-SW winds at 10-20mph.  Tonight... partly cloudy skies early becoming cloudy and very windy later.  Temps will be in the mid-upper 40s with Southerly winds at 20-30mph.  Tomorrow... 60% chance of rain in the first half of the day becoming partly cloudy by late afternoon with peeks of sun, temps will be in the upper 50s / low 60s with S-SW winds at 15-25mph.  Tomorrow night... partly cloudy, temps around 50° with light and variable breezes.  Thursday... sunny and warmer, temps in the mid-60s with North winds shifting from the W-SW at 10-15mph.  Thursday night... fair, mostly clear, temps in the low-50s and N-NE winds at 10-15mph.  You know I don't like getting ahead of myself but, this coming weekend looks like a washout according to future forecasts.  Saturday... 75% chance of rain and Sunday... 50% chance of rain.  Both days will have temps in the low-mid 50s.  Changes do happen as I'm always keeping an eye on things in the ol' weather department.
