Summer's Stopping By


Mornin'!  It's 71° in Wildwood NJ.  We've got dense fog this morning.  Humidity's 95% with a Dewpoint of 70° as it's feeling very damp out there at the moment.  No breezes to note.  We're going to have lots of sunshine (once she breaks through) with temps in the upper 70s (possibly tapping 80°) and breezes out of the East at 7-10mph.  It'll be hazy, warm and humid today. Tonight...mostly clear with some clouds in the mix with the Humidity still up there at 97%, breezes out of the E-SE at 5-10mph and temps in the low 70s. Just an fyi...Wildwood (proper) has no lifeguards on duty and suggests to call 911 if on the beach needing help.  North Wildwood and Wildwood Crest have Beach Patrols cruising the beaches but no lifeguards positioned like usual.  It's considered the "off-season".  Just know that you're pretty much on your own if entering the surf.  The wave action and currents will be rougher than normal and even more so this upcoming week as  I saw one report post we'll have tropical storm force winds and tides next week thanks to Hurricane José (it's now back to a hurricane). There's a "new moon" this mid-week and our tides will be higher than normal as well. Take heed, be smart and use caution.  Enjoy this weekend though as it'll certainly have that "Summer" feel!
