5 more days until Autumn!

Mornin'!  It's 60° in Wildwood.  It's a bit breezy and I have to say "chilly" in the house as my little hoodie is once again just the ticket this morning.   I still have the windows mostly cracked and/or opened.  I can't give up on that sea air as I love when it fills the house!  It'll be a lovely day at the Shore as temps will be tapping 70° with Ms Sun pouring down.  She's on her way as I blog.  Clouds will be minimal.  Breezes will stick around too this morning from the N-NE and shifting later from the East light and variable 8-10mph.  This "Edouard" thing (hurricane) is way out in the ocean off our coast creating some moderate coastal effects such as rip currents and higher than normal surf and swells.  Be careful if hitting the surf. Tonight...clear with temps back into the high 50s/low 60s. Lots of migrations happening on the island...birds, butterflies, Irish revelers.   Tomorrow is the kickoff to the 23rd annual Irish Fall Festival this upcoming weekend.  It kicks off with a Golf tournament in the morning at the Cape May Golf Course and an Irish concert at Wildwood Catholic HS tomorrow evening. Then, after that...the vendors, bars, parades, traffic, crowds will be in the Irish Mix.  Let's not forget it's also the Classic Car Fest in Wildwood and the Seafarers Celebration in Wildwood Crest.  Also this weekend...the Finalé of summer as it's the last weekend of summer as Autumn's ready to check in and right at the backdoor!
