Vernal "Spring" Equinox

Mornin'!  The start of Spring is today!  It begins officially at 11:06PM tonight.  It's happening in our Northern hemisphere where in the Southern hemisphere Fall begins today.  Almost everywhere on earth... 12 hours of sunlight today due to the way the earth's axis is neither leaning toward or away from the sun.  It's 37° in Wildwood NJ feeling like 28° with the windchill from the NW winds at 20-25mph.  It's cold out there.  And, the March wind (as March does so well) isn't making it feel like Spring this morning that's for sure.  It's partly sunny as we have a good amount of cloud cover this morning.  It'll be a partly sunny / partly cloudy day today.  Temps will be in the upper 40s feeling more like the upper 30s thanks to the winds.  Winds will continue to be still out of the W-NW at 20-30mph +gusting.  Tonight... mostly cloudy, temps in the low 40s and the winds switching from the SW at 10-20mph. Tomorrow... mostly sunny with some afternoon cloud cover, temps tapping 60° with W-SW winds at 15-25mph +gusting.  Tomorrow night... clear, temps in the mid-upper 40s and NW winds at 15-20mph.  Thursday... sunny, mid-40s and still blustery.  At this time, the weekend looks like a washout down the Shore with rainy days in the forecast for both Saturday and Sunday.
