Clouds and Meltdown heading this way


Mornin'! It's currently 27° in Wildwood. It's crisp, clear and still as the sun's about to take center stage and the ocean's thunderous roar can be heard in the far off distance. Clouds are aimed directly at our little island and as they thicken will begin to release their rains by late this afternoon and continue all evening right into tomorrow. Sounds like a damp, chilly, raw afternoon and evening ahead. Tomorrow could be much of the same but sometime in the afternoon the rains should be checking out. The key word is "Meltdown" as the rains wash away snow still covering WW. Could it be today is the last time we'll see snow this winter as it disappears right in front of our eyes? The gulls can be heard sqawking loudly this morning...like I said before...they know more than we do. 24 days until Spring! Today's temps will hover around the mid-upper 40's and breezes will be out of the South at 10-15mph. High tide:12:19pm.; Low tide:6:31p.m.; Ocean temp: 42°. 24 days until Spring...oh did I say that already?

I like "Snowy Harbor Shots" (see 02/22/11 blog comments)but prefer a "Tequila Mockingbird".
This last, our "Onion Snow" was plush, and Spring shall follow suit all hope.
