Gray Tuesday

Mornin'! It's currently 64 degrees in WW this morning with a slight N-NE breeze at 15mph. Dark, ominous clouds are covering the island. The way the weather people are calling it, it's looking like a possible washout. Occasional showers (40%) will be with us throughout most of the day and maybe even most of tomorrow. I don't like getting too ahead of myself, so let's stay on the task at hand...today's forecast. It's looking like there may be an occasion peek of sun today but temperatures won't get past the mid-70's; breezes could become a bit stiffer at 25+mph. Then we have tidal flooding as that full moon is creating a little havoc on the island by bringing the tide waters up into the streets especially tonight at the 8-9p.m. high tide (try not to drive through this salt water). So, here's the beach stats even though I'm thinking not much of a beach day and more like a Mall day...high tide:8:03a.m.; low tide:2:03p.m.; ocean temp:79 degrees (warmer than the air today); and moonrise: 7:26p.m. with a more than likely chance of being hidden by cloud cover, but it's worth the effort to try and catch it if at all possible.
