"Wish This Weather Was All Year Long"

Delaware Bay Sunset
Mornin'!  It's 57° in Wildwood NJ.  It's a "ditto" of yesterday.  We've got starlit (no moon) clear skies.  No breezes to note.  It's cool and calm with a bit of briny, fishy fragrance in the dark, morning air.  It'll be an exact replica of yesterday and tomorrow and Sunday and Monday.  Ms Sun will be shining in vivid blue skies with light breezes out of the N-NW at 9-11mph.  Temps will be in the low 70s.  Tonight...temps in the upper 50s / low 60s with clear starlit skies and breezes out of the NW at 5-10mph.
High tide:8:58a.m. and 9:15p.m.
Low tide:2:58p.m.
Ocean temp:72°
Sunset:6:15p.m.
I read last night that La Niña (the counterpart of El Niño) will likely be commanding our upcoming winter.  Best bets at this time are for mostly milder-than-average conditions from California to Florida and a chiller-than-average winter over the Pacific Northwest.  Signals are more mixed across the Midwest and us...The Northeast.  Periods of distinct mildness may be mixed with sharp cold blasts.  Much like last year's Winter here on the coast.  I'll take it!
