Mornin'! Happy Halloween! It's 55° on the ol' porch thermometer. It's clear and quiet with nothing in the line of breezes. There's a note of fishy-ness as the aromas of the sea and bay are predominate in this early morn stillness. It'll be mostly cloudy again today with temps in the high 60's. Winds will be out of the South 5-10mph. Tonight...30% chance of rain showers and looks like it will hold off until after trick-or-treating takes place. Here on the island, Halloween in celebrated by going to "Trunk or Treat" areas for the kiddies rather than knocking on the empty, quiet neighborhood homes. Vehicles are parked and decorated and hold buckets of all those sweet goodies! There's a couple locations. One, is near the Elks Lodge (where their annual haunted house set up) at Old New Jersey Ave. and 1st/2nd Aves. as well as Wildwood Crest Pier at Heather and Ocean Aves. Enjoy!

Normalcy returns
Mornin'! It's 58° in Wildwood. I'm back! Actually I returned late Monday night from my Key Weird (West) week's vacation. I checked off a Bucket List item by taking part in my very first Fantasy Fest. It'll most likely be my first and last but I'll admit I was extremely happy to have had that experience. Chances are pretty good that it was probably (key word: "probably") a "one and done" but ya never know! Yesterday was an extra day off as the unpacking, laundry, grocery shopping, doctor's appointment etc. was checked off the things-to-do list as I began slipping into normal mode. While away we celebrated a year anniversary of Super storm Sandy. It's so hard to believe it's been a year. We just finished having the last of her damage corrected as our back door and framing were all replaced prior to going away. I also heard we had quite a cold snap while in Florida as the temps here were tapping the 30s. Luckily we came home to comfortable, autumn weather. It was lovely here on the island yesterday. Today...clouds are supposed to roll in as it's officially being called a partly cloudy day with a 20% chance of a rain showers in the morning. Winds will be light from the W-SW at the start of today and shift to the S-SE later all at 5-9mph. Temps will be in the low-mid 60's and if Ms. Sun doesn't show herself, I'm thinking it could feel a wee bit chilly. I'll be taking a sweater or jacket along with me today as I return to work and some real normalcy.

Mixed Bag
Mornin'! It's 59° in Wildwood. At the moment, the sun and clouds are battling it out! It's very bright over at the horizon yet clouds are covering the sun that's doing its best to break out. It'll be mostly overcast and cloudy today with peeks of sun. Temps are heading into the mid-upper 60s as the winds are wifting (I mean wafting) in from the SE-E at 13-15mph. Tonight though...the winds will be ramping up at 20-25+mph as a cold front approaches bringing with it rain showers. Tomorrow...a tad chillier but the clouds should be gone for the most part.

Keep enjoying the calm before the storm
Mornin'! It's 66° under starlit skies. It's calm as breezes haven't entered into today's picture yet. They're coming though. It'll be in the mid 70's and mostly sunny with breezes commencing from the South at 15-20+mph. I'll say one thing, yesterday was off the chart with very warm summer-like conditions; sweat on the brow for sure. At least until late afternoon when the dense fogged roll in right off the ocean cooling things down instantly and chasing most of us off the beach. It is "fog" season as the Spring and Autumn seem to bring with them some thick, chilly, fog which is very neat. Today...I'm thinking the breezes will keep the wet brows at bay. For the most part, a nice day down the shore. Enjoy as the rains are coming and will check in tomorrow throughout overnight on Monday into Tuesday.

The Jewel's still sparkling!
Hopefully the folks managing the government's weather computers are finding their way to our coast for some quality "down the shore" time while off from work. We're having perfect Indian Summer weather as of late. It's currently a beautifully, clear, quiet (no breezes), starlit morning in Wildwood. The sun will shine in less than an hour with temps hitting the 80's as light breezes will wift (I mean waft) over the island from the West at 9-12mph. No rain in sight as this lovely, blue sky weather continues. Also, the New Moon is Friday (higher tides than usual).
