Fingers Crossed For Yesterday's Weather Again

Mornin'!  It's 43° in Wildwood NJ.  There's barely a breeze out of the South at 2-3mph.  It's partly cloudy (seems more on the west side of the island) as Ms Sun rises in the east.  She'll be up any minute now.  It'll be another lovely day with a touch of the warmth of Spring.  By the way, yesterday we reached 72° with clear, blue, sunny skies! Talk about "a touch of Spring"! It was not what the forecasters were forecasting although dense fog rolled in last night dropping temps significantly.  I'm seeing that today's weather will be foggy and partly cloudy (mostly along the shoreline) with sunny skies by the afternoon, temps in the mid-upper 60s and South winds at 5-10mph.  I'm going to say that we'll have a repeat of yesterday with sunshine with temps getting in the 70s again.  I'm just putting that out there as it's my gut feeling.  Tonight... clear, temps in the upper 40s and South winds at 5-10mph.  Tomorrow... partly sunny, temps around 60° and Southerly winds at 10-20mph.  Tomorrow night... mostly cloudy with foggy conditions, temps in the low-mid 50s and S-SW winds at 10-20mph.  Thursday... 80% chance of rain, a steady rain later in the day, temps near 60° dropping to the mid-40s in the afternoon, winds out of the W-NW at 15-25mph.  Thursday night... cloudy giving way to clear conditions overnight, temps in the low-30s and NW winds at 10-15mph.  It was last October that we saw 70° temperatures so yesterday was not only an unexpected surprise, but a wonderful gift of beautiful, sunny, warm, island weather that Wildwood does very well. It's days like these that being down the Shore is even more of a gift that I'm grateful for. Who knows... with some luck we just might see it all happen again today! Spring is just 10 days away.  Oh... my Chives and Spring bulbs have broken through the ground surface; a sure sign that Spring has sprung here on the island!
