Mornin' It's 67° in sunny Wildwood. It's still breezy (E-NE 17-25mph)! Looks like we're going to have a mostly sunny day. Seems like ages since Ms Sun's dominated the skies. There will be clouds in the mix and tonight...20% chance of rain. There's a Coastal Flood advisory posted due to the high tides caused by today's Full (Super) Moon. But, for the most part...a sunny Sunday with temps getting into the low 70s. Breezes aren't going anywhere so get out the hairspray.
High tide:7:43a.m.
Low tide:1:46p.m.
Ocean temp:71°
Sunset:6:50p.m.
Moonrise:6:39p.m.
UV Index:'4' (moderate)
Rip Currents:High (dangerous)
So, I'll wrap things up by talking about today's Full Moon....If skies are clear, we'll have a chance to glimpse a rare event in the night sky: A total Supermoon Lunal Eclipse. During
this event, three things will occur at once. The moon will be both full
and at its closest point to Earth – that’s known as a supermoon. And
this will occur at the same time as a total lunar eclipse – that means
the moon, sun and Earth will be aligned. Because of its proximity to Earth, the moon will appear brighter and
larger — 14 percent larger and 30 percent brighter than other full moons
— in the sky. And it will appear a dark, coppery red, caused by the
Earth blocking the sunlight that normally reflects off the moon. Sunday’s
eclipse will start at 8:45 p.m. EST and end around 1:00 a.m EST, with
the reddish phase lasting for about an hour from 10 to 11 p.m. Keeping my fingers crossed the skies are clear for this one as the next one is scheduled for January 2018!
