Partly Sunny and Breezy Friday

Mornin'!  It's 39° in Wildwood NJ.  Feels like 30° with the windchill from the North winds at 15-20mph.  We've got gray skies with only cloud cover and no sunshine this first half of the morning.  Expect a partly sunny day today as clouds clear out a bit.  Temps will get into the upper 40s again with N-NW winds at 20-30mph +gusting.  Tonight... clear and cold, temps dropping into the teens with N-NW winds at 15-25mph creating a windchill in single digits.  Tomorrow... a mix of clouds and sun in the morning followed by cloudy skies in the afternoon.  Temps will be in the mid-upper 20s with and windchill of 16° from those North winds at 10-20mph.  So, lets talk about this Holiday weekend's Nor'easter "Izzy"... the weather folk are still trying to get a handle on its direction and so far, our Coast is looking like a rain and wind event.  It's during the Full Moon which is Monday.  Sometime in the late afternoon Sunday, this extremely windy storm will be in charge of the island's erosion and flooding with rain and blustery winds continuing right into the late morning Monday.  There will be tidal flooding so keep abreast of Tide Times and be aware of low lying areas and where you drive and park your vehicle.  I have yet to hear that tomorrow's Polar Bear Plunge has been postponed.  Hubby says "They won't postpone that one".  So, I'm guessing there will be many folk with bathing suits on the beach tomorrow at mid-day jumping up and down during the countdown to run into the ocean while the air is icy cold.  And, today marks 1 year that our little Freddy has left us.  Today's blog is for him as we continue to hold him close to our hearts and adjust to the quiet this home has become this past year.
