Friday the 13th - Harvest Full Moon - Firefighters Weekend

Mornin'!  It's 68° in Wildwood NJ.  We're gray and blustery with winds out of the E-NE at 20-25mph +gusting.  No rain but it sure looks like it might start any minute now.  Expect a mostly cloudy day with peeks of the sun if we're lucky.  Temps will hover around where they are now barely tapping 70°.  Breezes will remain stiff out of the E-NE at 25-30mph +gusting. It's a total bad hair day.  No rain posted on any forecast for today and one forecast mentioned peeks of sun this afternoon.  Tonight... mostly cloudy with temps dropping to the low-mid 60s with East winds at 15-20mph.  I doubt if we'll see that Harvest Moonrise tonight.  It seems like that happens a lot at full moon time.  It truly is a remarkable event if your timing is right and the weather is fully cooperating.  The weekend's looking "eh" with tomorrow being the better of the two days.  Saturday looks like partly cloudy, peeks of sunshine, the mid-70s with a chance of showers at night.  Sunday has a chance of showers during the day with temps tapping 80°.
High tide: 8:18AM and 8:31PM
Low tide: 2:05PM
Ocean temp: 72°
Sunset: 7:13PM
Moonrise: 7:22PM
UV Index: 5 (low-moderate)
Rip Current: Red Zone (dangerous and life-threatening rip currents... I'd recommend "Not" entering the surf today as there are no lifeguards on duty although there will be tens of thousands of emergency folk on the island this weekend!)
