Mornin'! It's 49° in Wildwood NJ. It's raining at a pretty good clip. Winds are nothing compared to what's ahead for today and tomorrow... currently out of the S-SW at 7-12mph. That ol' storm "Harper" is upon us as the coast is experiencing rain (100% chance and heavy at times) at least until this afternoon with winds out of the NW at 25-35mph +gusting up to and over 50mph. We missed the bullet on this one as it'll be a relatively short rain event here on the island. Rainfall may reach an inch or more and it looks like the rains will be checking out by early afternoon. Temps will be mild... in the low 50s. Tonight... lots of cloud cover as temps drop down until they get into the mid-teens while NW winds continue to sustain 25-35mph with over 50mph gusts. We're talking -3° windchill!!! Tomorrow... Ms Sun returns but she's got her work cut out for her as these intense winds and freezing cold temps have no plans on going anywhere. It's going to be our first true taste of that boreal Winter Tundra! Time to dig out the thermal underwear! Oh... don't forget about that Full Moon as it's tonight around midnight and the high tides today and tonight will certainly be affected. Be aware of tidal flooding as you traverse the island today as some streets known for always flooding will probably be impassable (like the streets at the foot of the Redding bridge). High tide: 6:49a.m. and 7:24p.m.
Low tide: 1:11p.m.
Ocean temp:43°
Sunrise: 7:12a.m.
Sunset: 5:08p.m.
Moonrise: 4:40p.m.
The moon will be full and enormous this evening when it rises. Not only will it be huge and spectacular, but for a few hours late tonight into the early morning, we could see an eclipse of the moon if the sky is clear. It'll be the last lunar eclipse until May 2021.
Partial eclipse begins: 11:34p.m.
Total Lunar eclipse begins: 12:41a.m.
Greatest eclipse: 1:12a.m. ending at 2:51a.m.
