Gale Warnings Posted Today

Mornin'!  It's 48° in Wildwood NJ.  This one's a bit early due to waking early for no apparent reason.  We're under thick cloud cover this early morning with breezes out of the East at 10-15mph.  The ocean's roar is loud and clear when stepping out the back door onto the porch.  It's neat how the clouds insulate that sound so well.  Today's weather will be a mix of things.  It'll be mostly cloudy as we'll be lucky to see peeks of sun.  My guess is we will see Ms Sun somehow get through the cloud cover off and on.  You never know...these heavy clouds can be pushed aside from time to time by the winds and sun and we can only hope.  Temps will barely tap 50° with breezes coming over the island first from the West, then W-NW, then NW as a gale warning is posted from 2p.m. this afternoon until tomorrow morning.  Winds will ramp up this afternoon at 25-30mph out of the NW and give us some leftover March ambiance.  There's also a 20% chance of a shower today. It's definitely sweater-weather.  Tonight...partly cloudy and windy (NW 20-30mph) with temps in the low 40s.  Tomorrow looks like a sunny, but a blustery day with tad warmer temps. The weekend...sunny and much calmer breezes with temps still barely tapping 50°.
