Mornin'! I'm still grateful the island is free of snow today as I can truly feel the pain of everyone around us digging out from a foot of snow yesterday (Somerton in Philly got 17"). Our "dusting" is gone and the asphalt is back! It's currently 30° in Wildwood. In the darkness, you can see it's overcast as not one star can be seen. The sunrise (in about an hour) will certainly be obscured this morning as the clouds will be hanging out today. Today's forecast is peeks of sun but mostly gray with periods of snow showers/flurries through much of the day. No accumulation is expected. Temps will get into the mid-30's and breezes will be minimal (up to 8-10mph) out of the SW. Sun returns for the weekend as temps stay in the mid-30's. High tide:2:43p.m.; Low tide:8:54a.m.; Ocean temp: 35°. Soup this weekend: homemade Escarole Soup. 52 days until Spring...it's coming; it's coming!
A daily weather forecast of Wildwood, New Jersey. I'm a lover of the weather and more importantly the sea, sand, tides, sunrises, sunsets and moon charts. I've discovered since living here on the island (2004) how different our weather is than the mainland. Or, better yet, the Philadelphia area where I was born and raised. Lucky for me my family spent just about every summer vacationing in Wildwood. I did the same while raising my own children. I'm blessed to have been able to call it home as being "down the shore" full time is pretty amazing. People always ask, "How bad is it in the Winter?" You know what they say... "If you're lucky enough to live by the beach, you're lucky enough." As for this weather thing... I will never get used to the fact that when there's a snowstorm in Philly, it could be a misty/rainy, almost mild Winters' day in Wildwood or if there's a Nor'easter bringing Wildwood to its knees, it could be a cloudy, windy day in Philly. These towns are less than two hours apart. Since my Philly family and friends always assume that I'm having the same weather as the big city, I began blogging about Wildwood NJs weather to keep the record straight.
