Hazy, Hot and Humid Humpday

Mornin'!  It's 78° in Wildwood NJ.  Here goes that "hazy, hot and humid" weather day again.  It's thick and really warm outside.  Humidity's 93% with a Dewpoint of 76°.  It's hazy as Ms Sun's doing what she does to get through it.  It'll be the warmest day so far this week with temps in the low-mid 90s feeling like 101° heat index.  Breezes will be warm ones from the SouthWest at 9-11mph.  Tonight...warm and hazy with temps down into the low 80s and breezes still out of the SouthWest at 9-12mph.  Tomorrow...more of the same but not "quite" as warm as today but really warm and muggy just the same.  Friday and Saturday are looking unsettled as thunderstorms are on tap.  Sunday and Monday look A-OK but you know as well as I know that anything could change.  For today...a beach day but don't forget to prepare and whatever you do...do not forget footwear as that sand will burn the crap out of your feet.  Also when it gets hazy like this you don't usually feel the Sun's rays at the beach but...you're getting a major dose of sunburn without even feeling it if not wearing sunblock.  "Haze" is dangerous because it keeps you cool near that ocean but is giving you the same amount of sunburn as a "deep blue sky" sunny day.
