Warm, hazy Monday

This Morning's WebCam Shot - North Wildwood  

Mornin'!  It's 72° in Wildwood NJ.  Humidity's 88% with a dew point of 69°.  It feels warm and muggy outside this morning.  In fact, it felt like that going to bed and is the reason the AC went back on.  Ms Sun's up and it's hazy as you can get.  It almost looks like we're under major cloud cover.  Yet, the sun is shining.  I noticed last night while watching the late news/weather, that the fires out West are creating hazy cloud cover over the Eastern sky.  My guess is that this morning's heavy haze is smoke in our atmosphere.  All weather reports I've checked so far this morning are all saying that the sun is shining this early morning.  So with that... Ms Sun's up, breezes are light out of the West at 3-6mph and it feels like a summer morn out there.  It'll be a sunny (albeit hazy), humid start to the day.  As the humidity drops by late this morning, a few afternoon clouds will be filtering in along with those West winds at 5-10mph.  Temps will be in the mid-80s today with West winds at 10-15mph.  Tonight... partly cloudy, low 70s and W-SW winds at 5-10mph.  Pack the insect repellent if heading the beach!
