Happy Friday!

Mornin'!  It's 78° this early morn in Wildwood NJ.  It's still dark outside and feels warm and muggy.  Humidity's 85% and feels just about right.  There's a very light tropical breeze out of the S-SW and really not worth noting.  Breezes will pick up a bit later today out of the S-SW at 8-10mph.  It'll be even steamier today than yesterday as temps rise into the low 90s with humidity building as Ms Sun shines down.  It'll be mostly a hazy, sunny day with a mix of those milky clouds.  There's a slight 10% chance of an isolated thunderstorm and/or rain shower throughout the day and evening.  Saturday and Sunday aren't looking too shabby as both days should be mostly sunny (Saturday may be the cloudier of the two days), temps in the mid-upper 80s with a mix of clouds and 20% chance of a shower throughout the entire weekend.

Weekly Beach Etiquette tips:
  ~never leave trash on the beach and even better yet...pick up any you see whether it's yours or not.
  ~don't forgot those cigarette butts...collect and trash them (or just don't smoke and pollute the lovely sea air).
  ~remember to pack those headphones (believe it or not no one wants to hear your music).
  ~kindly give others on the beach space when selecting your beach site.  Careful not to plop down too close or on top of your neighbors beach space.  Your beach stuff (blankets, chairs and umbrellas) should not be nearly touching.
  ~always remind your kids beach etiquette especially not running too close to others and avoid digging up, kicking or throwing sand near those sitting next to you.
  ~play ball, frisbee, corn hole, kite-flying etc on the back side of the beach and not near beach goers (the beach patrol will usually stop you anyway if your in the wrong area.)
  ~ no feeding the seagulls (big no-no). And, eat and snack smartly...under your hooded sand chair, or umbrella as these beach vultures are eyeing up each and every beach goer looking for the right opportune moment to swoop down and pluck your lunch right out of your hand or mouth.  Once they get you then the havoc begins as all their gull friends and family beging the attack for your scattered food.
  ~shake towels and blankets away from others noting the wind direction.
  ~speaking of "wind direction"...note which way that "spray" sunblock is headed as you apply. That misty spray does hit those around you if the breeze is just right.  And, the hit could be right in someone's eyes or mouth.
  ~follow posted warnings and pay attention to lifeguards.
