It's Winter!


Mornin'! It's officially Winter...I've been waiting to blog that for some time now. Seems like it's been winter for weeks but it's just beginning today at 6:38p.m.; the shortest day of the year. I say bring it on. From this day forward...longer days and the countdown to Spring begins...90 more days! For now though...chilly in Wildwood as the Harbor's beginning to freeze. We had a glorious lunar eclipse in the middle of the night with the full moon turning orange as the it moved in front of earth's shadow. Pretty cool. Last time that occurred...1638. Wonder what the Pilgrims thought? For today's weather...pretty much the same as yesterday. It's currently 30° and will only reach the mid-30's with partly sunny skies. The NW relentless winds are hanging around at 15-25mph gusting at 35mph making it feel much colder due to the chill factor. High tide:6:58a.m.; Low tide:1:32p.m.; Ocean Temp:39°. The high tides and full moon will have a major affect on the flooding of the island today...remember not to drive through it as it's salt water! Full moon rise today: 5:11p.m.
