New Moon Monday

Mornin'!  It's 76° in Wildwood NJ.  Humidity's 87% with a dewpoint of 74°.  Feels like 85°.  Breezes are out of the W-NW at 3-5mph.  It's sunny with that dewy haze over the island.  We have a "Dense Fog Advisory" posted until mid-day.  No fog for us (yet) except for all the windows of my house (as well as those homes around me) which are all steamed up from the outside heat and the cooled, air-conditioned inside.  Expect abundant sunshine today with temps in the mid-upper 80s and W-SW winds at 10-15mph.  Tonight... a few passing clouds, temps in the mid-70s and S-SW winds at 10-15mph.  Tomorrow... partly sunny, with a very slight chance of a passing shower (15% chance), temps in the mid-80 and Southerly breezes at 5-10mph.  Wednesday... partly sunny, temps in the low-mid 80s with winds light and variable.  We did finally receive rain yesterday later in the afternoon for a few hours.  No storms, torrents or flooding; just a gentle, steady watering for a few hours.  It's the New Moon today.
High Tide: 8:53AM
Low Tide: 2:36PM
Ocean Temp: 77°
Sunrise: 5:50AM
Sunset: 8:39PM
UV Index: 9.3 (very high... remember to pack the Sunscreen lotion)
Rip Current: Moderate (only swim near a lifeguard)
There are "Southwest" winds in today's forecast and anything with "West" in the wind direction could bring those biting greenhead flies.  Pack the insect repellent today.
