Rainy Day II

Mornin'!  It's 61° in Wildwood NJ.  It's gray and wet out there with a very light shower happening right this moment.  We just got through a heavy downpour with a good soaking.  Actually, the sound of the pounding rain is what woke me.  The seagulls are expressing their delight that's for sure.  Or, could be angst...who knows?  Not much in the line of breezes...E-SE at 2-4mph.  It'll be a repeat of yesterday as well as repeating the same rainy forecast for tomorrow and Saturday too.  Rain, rain and more rain on tap.  Expect periods of rain showers throughout the day (some could be heavy like what we just had) with temps in the low-mid 60s and breezes out of the E-NE at 6-8mph. We could even have some thunder and lightning.  Tonight...rain showers with temps in the upper 50s and breezes out of the E-NE at 9-10mph.  Also be aware, this stretch of rainy weather could bring with it localized flooding.  There is a Flood Watch posted until Saturday. And, the bridge leading into Wildwood could be closed just when you want to enter or exit the island.  When in doubt...keep abreast of the high tides and enter through North Wildwood keeping those wellies close at hand.  Ending on a good note...veggie, herbs and flowers are all getting watered nicely.
High tide:10:14a.m.
Low tide:4:01p.m.
Ocean temp:58°
Sunset:8:09p.m.
