December's Here!

Otten's Harbor Webcam This Morning

Mornin'!  Happy December! For all you December babies... this is your month - Happy Birthday!  It's 37° in Wildwood NJ.  It's feeling like 30° with those N-NW winds at 10-20mph.  Ms Sun's up and shining her bright yellow light over the island. It'll be a sunny first day of December.  Temps will rise into the mid-40s with North winds ramping up even more.  Tonight... partly clear giving way to cloudy skies late into the evening as temps drop back to the mid-upper 30s.  Winds will be much calmer out of the E-SE at 5-10mph.  There's a 25% chance of rain showers overnight.  Tomorrow... temps in the low-50s and East winds shifting from the N-NW at 10-20mph and periods of rain (100% chance). Local heavy rainfall possible with 1-2" of rain.  We might even see tidal flooding due to this week's upcoming Full Moon on Thursday.  The moon is already making our tides look a bit more swollen than normal. You know the drill... be cognizant of where the island floods and high tide times and where you park your vehicle. Don't drive through flood waters.  Okay December... you've already fired up a winter storm headed in this direction.  I'd like to say "Welcome December" but December, January and February are on my list of the "Dreaded Winter Weather" months.  Winter storm "Bellamy" (by the way, Winter's still 20 days away) is now in the Midwest and has potential to be a storm with snow accumulation and ice.  In general, the Northeast, The I95 corridor and up the Hudson Valley from New York City into parts of New England tomorrow could all be in the path of Bellamy.  As for our coast... for now it appears just a rain event. And, like I said... a potential for local heavy rainfall.  You've been notified.
