Still Unsettled Down The Shore

Mornin'!  It's 65° in Wildwood NJ.  Once again, we're in the soup with 100% humidity and gray, foggy, misty conditions.  Everything's dripping wet outside.  Winds are barely there out of the South at 2-4mph.  Expect a gray day with 30% chance of rain in the earlier part of the day with possible peeks of sun in the afternoon.  Temps will be in the upper 70s along with SW winds at 5-10mph.  Tonight... a few clouds, temps in the mid-60s and W-SW winds at 5-10mph.  Tomorrow... it's Full Moon Day even though it may appear full today.  This Full Moon will be as large and low as it will be in 2043.  This occurrence is unique because of the major lunar standstill in the moon's 18 year cycle.  It's called the Strawberry Moon (named by Native American Tribes) for those wild strawberries that are at their peak of ripeness and ready for picking. We'll get to see this huge moon tomorrow as it'll be beautiful with plentiful sunshine during the day, and a clear evening sky, temps in the upper 70s and W-SW breezes at 5-10mph.  Tomorrow night... clear and moonlit, temps in the low-70s and S-SW breezes at 4-8mph. Tomorrow's weather will also repeat on Thursday.  Oh... the sunset and moonrise will just about be the same exact time if you find a spot on the island to watch that.

It's foggy along the beach (not too socked in around the neighborhood here).  It'll clear and dry up by this afternoon as we could see peeks of sunshine.  Temps will be around 70° with NE winds at 5-10mph.  Tonight... areas of fog, temps in the mid-60s and E-SE winds at 5-10mph.  Tomorrow... 50% chance of rain in the morning, scattered thunderstorms in the afternoon, temps in the low-70s and SW winds at 10-15mph.  Tomorrow night... partly cloudy, 20% chance of rain, temps in the mid-60s and W-SW winds at 5-10mph.

Another Keeper

Mornin'!  It's 72° in Wildwood NJ.  Ms Sun's up and we still have a hazy sky that she's trying to shine through.  It's subdued sunshine.  Winds are light out of the SW at 5-10mph.  It's a beautiful start to the day.  I failed to mention yesterday that it was the anniversary of moving to Wildwood some 21 years ago on a lovely June day.  I'd have to say that it's been some of the best years of my life living here. June's been lovely every day this week too just to note.  All my windows are open, birds are chirping, grocery shopping was just completed and hubby's whistling as he skins the chicken thighs.  It's somewhat the beginning of "high" season and grocery shopping must be done as early as possible to avoid major congestion in the grocery isles not to mention somewhat empty shelves.  I won't mention the price gouging this time of year.  Anyway... that's why the "late" blog.  
We'll have some sun this morning with increasing clouds this afternoon as it'll be mostly hazy sunshine today.  Temps will be in the low-mid 70s with S-SW winds at 10-20mph.  Tonight... partly to mostly cloudy skies, temps in the low-mid 60s and S-SW winds at 10-20mph.  Tomorrow... mostly cloudy start becoming cloudy later in the day, temps around 70° and S-SE winds at 10-15mph.  Tomorrow night... partly cloudy, temps in the mid-60s and SE winds at 10-15mph.  Saturday... 40% chance of rain showers and that's between 10am-12noon,  Chance of rain then becomes 10-20% chance after noon, temps around 70° with S-SW winds at 5-10mph.  Saturday night... partly cloudy with 25% chance of rain, temps in the low-mid 60s and winds light and variable.  Sunday... mostly cloudy with occasional rain showers (40% chance), temps in the upper 60s and East winds at 10-15mph.  Sunday night... showers (40% chance), temps in the low-60s and winds out of the East at 10-15mph.

Sunny / Smoky Hump Day

This Morning's Webcam Shot - Wildwood's
Smoke filled sky and still Flooded Beach

Mornin'!  It's 64° in Wildwood NJ.  Ms Sun's up and currently in a hazy, smoky sky.  I'm assuming that it's smoke from the Canadian wildfires which has reached our shores.  It's sunny without clouds and as hazy as you can get.  Then, throw in the smell of something burning and you got wildfire aftermath. Winds are light out of the S-SW at 4-6mph.  It'll be sunny but hazy today with temps in the mid-70s and S-SW winds at 10-20mph.  Tonight... clear, temps down to where they are now (mid-60s) and S-SW winds at 10-20mph.  Tomorrow... intervals of sun and clouds to kick off Thursday becoming more cloudy in the afternoon, temps in the mid-70s with S-SW winds at 10-20mph.  Tomorrow night... partly cloudy, temps in the mid-60s and S-SW winds at 10-15mph.  Friday... intervals of sun and clouds, temps in the low-70s and Southerly breezes at 10-15mph.  Friday night... partly cloudy,  temps in the low-60s and SE breezes at 5-10mph.   As for this coming weekend... Saturday looks like we'll have considerable cloudiness with 40% chance of rain showers, temps in the low-70s and Southerly breezes at 5-10mph.  Saturday night... cloudy, temps in the mid-60s and S-SE winds at 5-10mph.  Sunday...  40% chance of rain showers kicking off the day with cloudy conditions lingering in the afternoon, temps in the upper 60s and E-NE winds switching to E-SE at 5-10mph.  Sunday night... partly cloudy, temps in the mid-60s and E-SE winds at 5-10mph.

June's Arrived

Mornin'! Welcome June!  She's bringing some bright sunny days to kick off this new month. 
It's 54° in Wildwood NJ.  Ms Sun's shining through some hazy sky.  Winds are out of the West at 10-15mph.  It's feeling crisp outside and almost like an autumn morning.  Yet, summer's 20 days away.  
It'll be a sunny start to the month, week and day.  Expect plentiful sunshine with some of those milky clouds this afternoon, temps will be in the low-70s with West winds on the blustery side at 10-20mph.  Tonight... partly cloudy, temps in the mid-upper 50s and SW winds at 5-10mph.  Tomorrow... sunny, temps in the low-70s and NW winds at 5-10mph.  Tomorrow night... clear, temps in the upper 50s and SW winds at 5-10mph.  Tuesday... sunny, temps in the upper 70s and West winds at 5-10mph.  Tuesday night... clear, temps in the low-60s and winds out of the S-SW at 5-10mph.  The rest of the week looks like sunshine on the weather menu at least up until Saturday.  But, I'm one to not go that far out as Saturday is forecasted as a washout.  But that remains to be seen.  For now... the focus is on the lovely start to June along with a couple warm days (Wednesday and Thursday).  Oh... it is the start to Hurricane Season as I'd be remiss if I didn't throw out that reminder.  The season lasts until November 30th.  June's Full Moon is on the 11th by the way. Happy June!
