Staying gray today

Mornin'!  It's 61° this overcast, dark, damp, and dreary morning in WW.  It's another one of the damp bed linen days.  Even though it's not raining at the moment, everything outside (including some things inside) is wet with sea air and the overnight fog.  Temps will get a bit higher into the upper 60's but it'll stay gray today.  95% chance of showers throughout the day as well as a possibility of thunderstorms right into this evening.  Winds will persist out of the East at 15-20mph.  More crapola day than a beach day that's for sure.  I'm keeping watch for the weekend weather...which is looking ½ + ½ and I'm not talking creamer.

Brisk Sunday

Mornin'!  It's 60° in Wildwood this breezy, brisk, gray morning.  Not sure about the sun today although all the forecasters I've researched are saying mostly sunny today.  It's brightening up but Ms. Sun hasn't quite checked in yet.  Temps won't get a whole lot warmer as they're supposed to hit the mid (maybe high) 60's.  Clouds will increase (that's all we got at the moment though) as the day progresses bringing along rain showers by this evening.  We also got breezes...15mph out of the Northeast (we're talking a stiff seabreeze) at the moment with gusting at 30+mph.  These clouds rolling over us today will increase and stick around most of the day and upcoming week by the way.  One forecaster said that it won't be a complete washout, but it's looking like the possibility of rain all week long.  The question is do we pack the parkas next weekend?  I'll find out.  Oh...the reason for no blog yesterday...5 words..."too much fun Friday night" if you get my drift!

Weekend's fast approaching

Sunset Seat at the Coconut Cover

Mornin'!  It's 54° in WW.  Loverboy's "Everybody's working for the Weekend" won't leave my music mind.  But, it is an oldie but goodie to get those weekend juices flowing.  Plus, it seems to work for me.  I'm going to do everything I can to keep "Last Dance" out of my music mind today...although RIP Donna Summer!  Loved her.   One more weekend and the show begins.  That is...the island becomes a population from 15,000 to 300,000!  (I guess the weather will be a determining factor too). Bring it I say.  Ok...let's talk weekend weather shall we?  The sun just rose and is pouring in the front windows. It'll be mostly sunny today with mild conditions albeit cooler and breezier than the mainland.  Temperatures will rise into the mid-upper 60's.  Winds will be out of the E-NE at 15mph (they're 7-9mph at the moment) and later will gust a bit at 20-25mph.  It'll be pretty much the same tomorrow but a bit more cloudy.  The clouds will filter in all day tomorrow and continue to do so until Sunday when rain is a possibility (for now it's 30% chance).  Isn't sounding like great beach weather but the Scouts won't back down and will continue to camp there all weekend long for their Beach Jam.

Looking Good

Mornin'!  It's 66° in Wildwood this early morn.  It's cloudy, dry, and still at the moment.  It'll become mostly sunny with some clouds in the mix today.  Temperatures will just about tap the 70° mark.  Looks like a seasonably mild day as we begin to direct our attention to the weekend.  I know the boy scouts and girl scouts are keeping a close eye on the weather as they plan to pitch tents on our beaches and camp there for the Beach Jam. So far, the weekend's looking just as nice I'm happy to report!  Breezes aren't happening at the moment but will begin to pick up this morning cooling the island down a tad coming from the North at 10-15mph; then shifting from the NE off the sea and picking up at 15-20mph with some minor gusting. Nothing like a nice cool seabreeze in the afternoon.

Hump Day!

Mornin'!  It's 64° in WW this hump day morning.  There's been some lovely, overnight Fog that's still settled over the island.  It's supposed to burn off this morning and become partly sunny today.  However, a possible "pop-up" thunderstorm (their words; not mine) may occur this afternoon.  Temps will rise into the low-mid 70's today as a SW breeze at 10mph wifts (I mean wafts) over us.  Doesn't sound too bad today after those torrents yesterday.  Whew, Wildwood was-a-flooding yesterday morning as it rained harder than a bull pissing on a flat rock.  His words; not mine.  By the way, so far the weekend's looking pretty nice...as the sun will be checked in along with pleasant temperatures.

Duck Weather

Mornin'!  It's 63° in Wildwood.  It's another one of those mornings that everything seems damp in the house...bedding, slippers, curtains etc.  That is if you kept your windows open throughout the night which I did.  The sea air and dampness has provided lots of moisture everywhere...ya know..."duck weather".  Shut the windows today though as it'll be very wet all day today.  It's drizzling outside at the moment and will be damp, drab, and dreary throughout the entire day today as clouds and rain along with a possible thunderstorm later will prevail.  Temps will be in the mid-high 60's as the S-SE seabreezes will be blowing in at 15mph with 20-25mph gusts.  We're talking another bad hair day.  Tomorrow...warmest day of the week at the shore and beginning to clear as the sun is going to do its best to beat out those clouds and shine on.

Mornin'!  It's 63° in Wildwood.  It's gray, a tad breezy and raining lightly.  Winds are out of the South at 9-12mph and will pick up and shift by late this afternoon from the SE at 20-35mph.  We'll have sporadic rain showers all along the way today and tonight right into tomorrow.  Sun's supposed to check back in on Wednesday. Temps will stay in the high 60's today.  Look at it this way...all of our lovely gardens will be getting a nice watering.  Speaking of gardens...yesterday, for the first time I noticed tiny little baby grapes on a grape vine I've been nurturing for 4 years.  Years ago, when I visited a local vineyard, I pocketed a few grapes and planted their seeds.  This is the very first year I've seen fruit.  I had faith it would happen someday! My grapevine along with my rose garden which is also beginning to bloom truly warms my heart!
