Sunny Humpday

Mornin'!  I'm back!  The last time I did a blog entry was on Thanksgiving morning and it was 57° in Wildwood. 
This morning it's 29° in Wildwood!   Winter's doing more than peeking in as its already got one foot in the door.  We're now only 17 days away from the Winter Solstice.  The current conditions here are clear skies, barely any winds (out of the W-NW at 2-3mph with no windchill).  That'll change though.  We'll start out today with a clear, sunny, calm morning and by afternoon around mid-day, it'll become partly sunny and blustery with winds out of the SW at 20-30mph +gusting.  Today's temperature will be around 45°.   Tonight... overcast and windy with S-SW winds at 25-35mph +gusting, temps in the low-40s feeling like the low-30s along with a 25% chance of precipitation.  Tomorrow... chance of morning shower (25% chance), still very windy with West winds at 25-40mph, and temps in the mid-40s.  Tomorrow night... strong winds continue out of the W-NW at 25-35mph +gusting, temps in the low-30s feeling like the low-20s with the windchill.  As for this coming weekend... a very nice one with plentiful sunshine both Saturday and Sunday and temps in the mid-upper 40s and not near as windy as we're about to have today and tomorrow and Friday with Sunday possibly coming in around 50°!  Being near Pottsville PA for my extra long Thanksgiving weekend, I got a nice taste of Winter.  It was in the teens every morning.  It's always good to be home!

Full "Beaver" Moon Friday

Mornin'!  It's 48° in Wildwood NJ.  The weather chart says it feels like 42° with the N-NE breezes at 10-15mph.  It's cloudy as Ms Sun begins her Full Moon Friday.  She's behind the clouds at the moment.  She's actually peeking under them at the horizon line as I blog.  She's due up in just about 10 minutes.  Since we're under cloud cover, there's a 40% chance of rain this morning.  By this afternoon... sunshine and blue skies and on the windy side.  Temps will go up into the mid-upper 50s with N-NW winds at 10-20mph.  Tonight... clear, temps back to where they are now... mid-upper 40s with NW winds at 10-20mph.  Tomorrow... sunny, temps in the low-mid 60s and very blustery with NW winds at 15-25mph.  Sunday... partly to mostly sunny, temps in the upper 50s and W-NW winds at 5-10mph.  It's the Full Moon today.  Tides are much higher than normal and we could see that salt water seeping into the streets again.  Do your best to not drive through it.  We did have some very minor coastal flooding yesterday along the curbs in some of the streets as that water somehow finds its way up onto the island.  That Full Moon is just the push it needs.  Hopefully, we'll see some rain as we're in a serious "extreme" drought crisis.  And, if we do have clear skies tonight... that ol' Moon rise is always amazing to witness along the ocean on the eastern horizon.

Partly to Mostly Cloudy Thursday

Mornin'!  It's 44° in Wildwood NJ.  There are a few things going on this morning.  First, it's a bit on the cloudy side.  Ms Sun is painting the sky as she tries to rise and shine but the clouds are in the way and making things interesting with beautiful colors mixed with dark, gray clouds.  Secondly, it's high tide on the bay side and my surrounding streets along the curbs are on the floody-side.  High tide was actually an hour ago on the ocean side of the island but the bay side is always an hour later.  Tomorrow's Full Moon is creating this scene there's no doubt as we're still in a serious drought situation with no measurable rain for over a month.  The Northeast winds are light at 9-12mph.  
We're going to have a generally cloudy day with temps in the mid-50s and E-NE winds at 10-15mph.  Tonight... cloudy with 40% chance of rain showers, temps in the upper 40s and E-NE winds at 10-15mph.  Tomorrow... cloudy in the morning, sunny by the afternoon, temps in the upper 50s and N-NW winds at 10-20mph.  Tomorrow night... clear, temps around 50° and NW winds at 10-15mph.  Saturday... sunny, temps around 60° with NW winds at 10-20mph.  Saturday night... clear, temps in the upper 40s / low 50s with N-NW winds at 10-15mph.  Sunday... partly to mostly sunny, temps around 60° with W-NW to W-SW winds at 5-10mph. Sunday night... cloudy, temps in the low-50s and light winds.

Mornin'!  Happy Veterans Day!  It's 62° in Wildwood NJ.  We're wet and drippy from last evening/overnight rains.  Everything's watered but my guess is that it's not enough to rid us of the drought conditions.  In fact, there have been reports of wild fires out of the control in Passaic County NJ as well as parts of Orange County NY.  Very light, misty rain showers are still coming down and likely through mid-morning (50% chance).  We'll see gradual clearing then with ample sunshine by late morning / early afternoon.  Along with the sunshine, we'll have temps near 70° and winds out of the W-SW at 15-25mph.  Tonight... mostly clear with some clouds in the mix, temps... upper 40s with W-NW winds still stiff at 15-25mph.  Tomorrow... sunny with gusty winds (N-NW 20-30mph) and temps in the upper 50s.  Tomorrow night... clear, temps around 40° and NW winds at 15-20mph +gusting.  And, to all our Veterans (including my husband) who have served our country... today we honor you and all those who have served in all the wars.  Thank You!

It's Election Day - 2024

This Morning's Webcam Shots
Mornin'!  It's 59° in Wildwood NJ.  We're socked in with heavy fog this early morn.  If it were a clear, blue-sky kind of morning, Ms Sun would be just crossing over the horizon and shining her rays beginning today's warm-up.  But, it's gray and drippy with light breezes out of the SW at 3-5mph.  We're going to have morning patchy fog with peeks of sunshine in a few hours.  It'll be a partly sunny / partly cloudy day with temps in the upper 60s and S-SW winds at 10-20mph.  Tonight... mainly clear, temps around 60° and S-SW winds at 10-15mph.  Tomorrow... like today it'll be partly sunny / partly cloudy, much higher temps (mid-70s) and SW winds at 10-20mph.  Tomorrow night... cloudy, temps in the mid-60s and SW winds at 3-5mph.  Need I tell you that it's Election Day?  Time to Vote!  Let's make this happen and see what tomorrow brings.  One thing for sure is no more Campaign commercials!

The Last Day Of Daylight Savings Time

Mornin'!  It's 51° in Wildwood NJ.  It feels like 48° with those N-NW breezes at 10-15mph.  Ms Sun just rose over the ocean's horizon.  It's a crisp, beautiful morning down the Shore.  It's also the last of daylight savings time.  We turn the clocks back ("Fall" back) tonight before turning in as sunset tomorrow will be "4:55pm".  Say hello to those dark treks home from work or start of dinners or painfully re-setting all those timers in the house.  Keep in mind that the Winter Solstice (12/21) is just 50 days away.  It's the shortest daylight of the year and the very next day (12/22) daylight begins growing longer each day. 
Anyway... today's weather will be nice.  Expect a perfect Autumn day with a mix of sun and clouds, temps in the low-60s and winds out of the N-NW at 10-15mph.  Tonight... clear, temps much colder in the low-40s and North winds at 10-15mph.  Tomorrow... sunny, temps around 60° and NE winds at 10-15mph.  Tomorrow night... clear, temps around 50° with E-NE breezes at 5-10mph.  Monday... partly to mostly cloudy, temps in the low-60s and E-SE breezes at 5-10mph.  Don't forget the clocks tonight... it's my last reminder until March 9th!

November's In The House

Mornin'!  Happy November!  It's 66° in Wildwood NJ.  We're under clear, starlit skies.  Sunrise is just about an hour from now.  Winds are out of the SW at 10-15mph.  Clouds are supposed to roll on through this morning and stick around for most of the morning.  A bit later this afternoon, we'll see the sunshine begin to mix with the clouds as temps rise into the mid-70s with W-SW winds ramping up at 15-25mph.  Tonight... clear and chilly... upper 40s with NW winds at 10-15mph.  Tomorrow... sunny, temps in the low-mid 60s with N-NW winds at 10-15mph. Tomorrow night... clear, low-50s with North winds at 4-8mph.  Remember to turn the clocks back an hour tomorrow night before turning in as Eastern Standard Time begins on Sunday.  Speaking of Sunday... sunny, temps around 59° with E-NE winds at 10-15mph.  It's the New Moon today which brings higher and lower than normal tides. And as we being November, Hurricane season is supposed to end on November 30th and I'm hoping this November is kind to us.  We'll have to wait and see.  We could pray to the Saints as it is "All Saints Day" today!

It's Halloween!

Mornin'!  Happy Halloween!  It's 62° in Wildwood NJ.  Ms Sun's up and over the horizon.  Breezes are light out of the SW at 4-8mph.  It's a beautiful autumn morning down the Shore.  We're going to have record high temps this Halloween.  Expect those vivid blue skies again with plentiful sunshine, temps in the mid-upper 70s and SW breezes at 10-15mph.  Tonight... mostly clear and breezy, temps in the mid-60s and SW winds at 10-20mph.  Tomorrow... partly sunny / partly cloudy with 15% chance of a shower, temps in the mid-70s and W-SW windsw at 10-20mph.  Tomorrow night... partly to mostly clear, temps in the low-60s and W-NW breezes.  As for this coming weekend... both Saturday and Sunday will be mostly sunny, temps in the low-60s with light and variable breezes.  It's time to say good-bye to another month.  For Wildwood NJ... October's weather has been fantastic this year albeit "dry".  We can only hope that next October is as beautiful.  Florida surely wouldn't agree with me as their entire Hurricane season has been one of the most intense of the season with October being no exception.  Until next year October, see ya on the other side!  Rest easy and Trick or Treat!

We're very crispy on the island and surrounding areas.  Be aware of the very dry conditions as we're in a moderate drought and the State remains on a  "drought watch"... conserve water and watch those cigarette butts.

There's a Stage 3 Fire Restriction statewide due to the prolonged dry conditions.  These restrictions ban wood and charcoal fires as this dry weather as of late raises wildfire risks specifically in the Pineland region of our State which is operating under a Drought Watch.  This severe dryness is now near record levels in the State of NJ as residents and businesses should be aware and vigilant of any wasteful use of water.  Here's some guidelines to follow if in the drought watch area:
~taking your car to the car wash instead of washing it in your driveway saves water.
~sweep your patio, driveway or sidewalk instead of hosing paved surfaces.
~check for leaks around your home.
~use watering can to water instead of a hose.
~install low-flow shower-heads, faucets and toilets.
~shorten bathing time; take a 5 minute shower.
~turn off the faucet while brushing your teeth.
~run the dishwasher and washing machine only when "full".
~don't throw lit cigarettes/cigars away thoughtlessly.

October's Beginning To Take Her Bow

This Morning's Webcam Shot - Otten's Harbor 
Mornin'!  I'm back!  It's been 18 days since I actually sat in front of my computer and checked Wildwood's weather.  I did peek on my phone and kept seeing nice weather here with no rain.  I've been enjoying Autumn from afar and mostly down South (Georgia and Florida) with some 60° mornings and even warmer with 80° mornings in Key West.  The first thing I did when walking through the door last evening was put the furnace on. The second thing was to enjoy my own bed! As for the weather here... what a difference a couple of weeks make!  The air is crisp to say the least as we border that freezing mark.  All the tree leaves are all turning into their picturesque colors with Autumn everywhere (including Wildwood and my property) as well as North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland and Delaware which was quite a treat to see. The Marsh grasses here are once again that beautiful golden color.  But the best is that salty, briny fragrance always filling Wildwood's air giving me that incredibly warm welcome back.  There's nothing like returning home to the Coast. 
It's 44° in Wildwood NJ and actually feels like 38°!  It's sunny with barely any breezes (out of the North) at 2-3mph.  Expect the beautiful autumn days to continue with plentiful sunshine in that deep blue sky, temps in the low-60s and E-NE breezes at 5-10mph.  No rain in sight.  Tonight... partly clear, temps around 50° and winds light and variable.  Tomorrow... intervals of sun and clouds, temps in the mid-upper 60s and East winds at 5-10mph.  Tomorrow night... partly clear, temps in the upper 50s / low 60s with light winds.  Wednesday... sunny, temps around 70° with S-SW breezes at 5-10mph.  The New Moon is this coming Friday.  Along with unpacking today, lots of watering is going to be happening around here.

Happy Thursday!

Mornin'!  It's 55° in Wildwood NJ. This lovely Autumn weather continues throughout the rest of the week into next week.  It's clear, still dark but starlit and 3/4 moonlit. Looks like a mix of sun and clouds during sunrise but another sunny day ahead today with temps in the low-mid 60s and N-NW winds at 10-20mph.  Tonight... clear, temps in the low-mid 50s and N-NW winds at 10-15mph.  Tomorrow... sunny, temps in the mid-upper 60s with N-NW winds at 5-10mph.  Friday night... clear, low 60s and West winds at 5-10mph.  Saturday... sunny, temps in the low-mid 70s and West winds at 10-15mph.  Saturday night... clear, mid-60s with W-NW winds at 5-10mph.  Sunday... mostly sunny, low-70s and Southerly breezes at 5-10mph. 
So, it's that time when I'm taking a break from blogging for a little bit and getting things done... visits with family, a little road-trippin' here and there and enjoying the moment.  I see taking in the views, relaxing, reading good books, crocheting and maybe a party/celebration or two!  I have no doubt that I'll be back to blogging before Halloween gets here!  If you need Wildwood's most accurate weather, I rely mostly on "Weather - Wunderground" which is about midway under my Personal Favs on my Blog page.  Everything else is there too... moon charts (next full moon is October 17th), ocean temp, tides, rip currents etc.  We've got it all!  See ya on the other side!

Wild First Weekend In Wildwood


Mornin'!  It's 63° in Wildwood NJ.  Humidity's 89% with a dewpoint of 60°.  Breezes are out of the NW at 2mph (barely there).  It's still dark and partly cloudy (more clouds on the bay-side) with a string of clouds just along the horizon line at the ocean) which usually makes for a fantastic sunrise (in about an hour). It's supposed to be a sunny, warmish day. Today's temps will be in the low-mid 70s with N-NE breezes at 10-15mph.  Tonight... clear, temps in the upper 50s and N-NE winds at 5-10mph.  Tomorrow... sunny, temps in the low-70s and E-SE winds at 5-10mph.  Tomorrow night... clear, temps in the upper 60s and Southerly breezes at 5-10mph.  Monday... sunny, temps in the low-70s and N-NW winds at 10-15mph.  A lot going on this weekend here in Wildwood.  Check out the big line ups in the Events Calendar.  Oktober Fest at Morey's as well as the Race Of The Gentlemen is this weekend and one thing's for sure... the pre-1935 hot rods are everywhere and noisy as hell.  I thought the Harleys were loud when we used to have Biker Weekend!  Have fun this first weekend in October!

Mix Of Sun And Clouds

Mornin'!  It's 61° in Wildwood NJ.  Ms Sun's up and shining brightly.  Humidity's 85% with a dewpoint of 60°.  Breezes are light out of the SE at 3-4mph.  Clouds are going to roll on through today as it'll be partly sunny / party cloudy with temps in the low-70s and SE breezes at 5-10mph.  Tonight... cloudy early with clearing expected late.  There's a small chance of a shower (20% chance) late tonight into the overnight, temps in the low-mid 60s with S-SW breezes at 5-10mph.  Tomorrow... clouds in the morning giving way to a sunny day, temps in the low-mid 70s and N-NE breezes at 5-10mph.  Tomorrow night... clear, temps in the upper 60s and E-NE breezes at 5-10mph.  Sunday... sunny, temps in the low-70s with S-SE breezes at 5-10mph.  Sunday night... partly cloudy with 30-40% chance of rain after midnight, temps in the mid-60s with S-SW winds at 10-20mph.  It's looking like a perfect weather weekend ahead for this weekend's lineup of The Race Of The Gentlemen, the RV Show at the Convention Center area and the Oktober Fest at Morey's Pier on the Boardwalk.

Looking Like It May Be A Beauty Today

Mornin'!  It's 61° in Wildwood NJ.  Humidity's 88% with a dewpoint of 57°.  Breezes are barely there out of the North at 2-3mph.  We're under cloud cover but there are areas along the horizon where it's clear and bright and seems to be opening for Ms Sun's arrival.  I'm thinking we'll see a lovely sunrise this morning.  It'll be a party sunny / partly cloudy day with temps around 70° and E-NE winds at 5-10mph.  Tonight... clear to partly cloudy, temps in the low-60s and S-SE winds at 5-10mph.  Tomorrow... partly sunny / partly cloudy, temps around 70° and E-SE winds at 5-10mph.  For the weekend... beautiful both Saturday and Sunday... sunny, temps in the low-70s and light breezes.  We might get rain Sunday night into the overnight as well as early Monday morning.
