Temperature is in the Limelight

Mornin'!  It's 38° in Wildwood.  The sky is still dark but crystal clear and starlit before the sunrise.  It's always darkest before dawn.  And, we'll see dawn arrive in all its spendid glory when that sun crosses the horizon in just about an hour from now. It'll be a sunny day today.  There's a very slight breeze out of the N-NW which will increase just a bit at 10-15mph.  The temps will increase slightly and hold around the mid-40's.  Speaking of temps, they've been topic of converation as of late as they're supposed to increase a bit each day this week and by the weekend may be in the 60's.  That's no typo.  You may want to dust off the sandchair.

Some Sun this Sunday

Mornin'!  It's 40° in Wildwood.  At the moment, it's mostly overcast but there's also a clearing in the dark, morning sky as some stars are visible.  The clouds are forecasted to stick around creating snow showers and/or rain sprinkles the early part of the day (30% chance).  By this afternoon, the sun's going to check in and it'll be mostly sunny with some minimal clouds.  Temps will be in the mid-40's as the winds (none to mention at the moment) will arrive first from the S-SW then shift and begin wifting (I mean wafting) from the West at 15-20mph and by later this afternoon...calm to 5-10mph.

Photo-less blog

Mornin'!  It's 35° in WW.  Sun's due up over the horizon in just minutes.  It'll be sunny all day with temps rising just a bit a barely tapping the 40° mark.  Winds will be fairly light out of the N-NW at 15-20mph as the sun shines all day.  There's a 30% chance of snow overnight as the clouds roll in.  Decent winters' day ahead.

Ahhh...there's a chill in the Air

Mornin'!  It's a chilly 24° in Wildwood.  The sky is clear and starlit with no breezes to write about.  The Harbor had a sheen of ice on it for the first time since last winter.  The moors and any remaining docked boats will be moaning with the tides movement and the thawing and re-icing of the water.  I'm not so sure the waters will thaw out today as temps are staying in the 20s...albeit the high 20s.  The sun is checked in for the weekend beginning today.  Winds will ramp up a bit out of the W-SW at 10-20mph with some gusting.

Hazy, Hot and Humid it's not!

Typical hazy, hot and humid July day on Wildwood's beach
Mornin'!  It's 28° in Wildwood.  First "20's" for quite awhile and definitely the first of 2013.  My achy bones are not a fan of the 20's.  Thankfully there are no breezes at the moment thus no chill factor to write about.  The moon is a tad obscured...much like the ol' scary, werewolf moon with moonlit, hazy clouds slowly passing over exposing it along with the last of the evening stars.  Speaking of clouds, it will partly cloudy/partly sunny today as the hazy sun will be fighting for space all throughout the day today.  Yesterday turned out to be mostly sunny so I'm optimistic.  Temps will be in the low-30's with breezes coming a little later out of the NW at 10-15mph. Tonight...still in the 30's, feeling like the 20's with clear moonlit skies.

78 days until Spring

Mornin'!  It's 33° under cloudy skies in Wildwood this early morn.  No moon.  No stars.  Just clouds.  It'll be mostly cloudy today with a 10% chance of a sprinkle.  There's also a chance of breaks of sun peeking through today as the rest of the week looks mostly sunny.  Today though...everyone's saying mostly cloudy.  Remains to be seen. Temps aren't going anywhere as they'll be staying in the mid-high balmy 30's and be much colder than they have been.  Layer up I say.  No breezes to write about but they'll start showing up later this morning from the NW at 15-20mph.  78 days until Spring!

Happy New Year!

Mornin'!  Happy New Year!  How many times have we heard or read or wrote that in the last day or so?  All bets are down that this year will be a "happy" one but I'm still going to go with one day at a time.  Speaking of day...today is on the chilly side as Wildwood's temp is 41° this first weather blog of the year.  We're under thick clouds and I expect no sunrise to see.  Winds are minimal out of the W-NW at 10-12mph.  They'll pick up just a tad today at 18-22mph staying out of the W-NW.  It'll look and feel like rain all day but there's only a 40% chance that will see any.  Temps will hover around just where they are at the moment.   The sun will be returning tomorrow and be checked in through the weekend.
