Full Moon Hump Day

My view of this Morning's "Blood" - "Hunter's" Moon 
Mornin'!  It's 66° this clear, breezy morn in Wildwood.  The sky is not only beautifully starlit, but the Full Moon (Hunter's moon) is going through an eclipse as I type.  I'm finding it very difficult to sit at this computer as I keep running to the backyard to witness the moon passing through the earth's shadow and turning dark red right in front of my eyes!  It's very cool!  It's a mild lovely morning as the clouds are just sprinkled here and there and the sea air is enhancing it all!  It'll be a lovely autumn day (almost a summery day) at the Shore.  Temps will be in the low 70s while Ms Sun does her thing shining down all day.  Winds will be ramped up a bit from the West at 16-22mph.  Tonight...back into the low 60s while winds simmer down still from the West at 10-12mph.  The weekend still has rain in the forecast with Saturday having the greater chance of rain.  Today though...a beauty and what a way to start the day!
High tide:8:16a.m.
Low tide:2:22p.m.
Ocean temp:69°
Sunset:6:33p.m.
Moonrise:6:43p.m.
