Mix of Clouds and Sun

Mornin'!  It's 54° in Wildwood NJ.  We're under mostly cloudy conditions with some breaks that Ms Sun's trying to peek through at the moment.  Breezes are out of the S-SW at 7-10mph.  It's feeling a bit chilly and raw outside this morning.  It's that gray sky I'll bet.   Expect mostly cloudy conditions today with periodic peeks of sun as temps climb up a bit more and tap 60°.  Clouds will eventually take over later as SW breezes will switch to NW by this evening when there's a 60-80% chance of rain.  Temps will drop down to the upper 40s tonight into the overnight (it'll feel like the upper 30s with winds beginning to ramp up).  It looks like we'll wake to sunshine tomorrow, but with much more blustery conditions.  The National Weather Service has issued a Small Craft Advisory which is in effect from tonight until tomorrow morning.  The weekend's still looking partly sunny / partly cloudy with cool temps.

Sunny Days!!!

Mornin'!  It's 45° in Wildwood NJ.  It's clear and still.  Ms Sun's up and no breezes to note.  It'll be a pleasant sunny day with temps in the mid-upper 50s and breezes out of the W-NW at 5-10mph.  Tonight... clear, moonlit and still with temps in the mid-40s.  The weekend at this time looks seasonably cool (40s and 50s) with partly sunny conditions.  Oh... Our Mayor Trioano (of 16 years) was voted out in yesterday's election by the way... the new team of Commissioners are Mikulski, Fitzimons and Byron and they'll decide which one will be the new Mayor!

Election Day

Mornin'!  It's 58° in Wildwood NJ.  We're saturated from the overnight rains.  Everything's been nicely watered.  It's not raining at the moment and by the sound of the forecasts, the rains may be checking out as I type.  Breezes are barely there out of the SW at 3-5mph.  It's actually a nice morning but with some ominous clouds overhead.  Expect a mostly cloudy morning with a 20% chance of rain showers.  Things should clear by this afternoon as temps get into the low-60s while Ms Sun tries to peek in.  Breezes will switch out of the W-NW at 6-8mph. Tonight... clear with temps in the mid-50s with NW breezes at 4-6mph.  Not a bad day (or evening) to get out and cast your vote!  Tomorrow... sunny with temps in the mid-50s.

Lovely Monday

Mornin'!  It's 41° in Wildwood NJ.  It's sunny and bright with light breezes out of the East at 4-6mph.  It's feeling more than chilly outside this morning.  Expect sunshine (with a nice warmup) the first half of the day with afternoon clouds drifting over the island.  Temps will be in the mid-upper 50s with S-SE breezes at 10-12mph.  Tonight... mostly cloudy with temps in the mid-50s and S-SW breezes at 10-12mph.  There  is a slight chance of a shower tonight/overnight  (20%).  Tomorrow... looking like the possibility of rain is in the forecast for the first half of election day with the possibility of peeks of sun by later in the afternoon.

It's Standard Time!

Lots Of Birds Heading South This Time Of Year

Mornin'!  It's 48° in Wildwood NJ.  Darkness is fading but it's still starlit outside.  Dawn's on the horizon as the sky is beginning to brighten.  Breezes are light out of the NW at 8-10mph.  It has an autumn chill in the air (not as much as yesterday morning though).  It'll be another beautiful Autumn day with plenty of sunshine, temps in the mid-50s and breezes somewhat stiff out of the W-NW at 15-20mph.  Tonight... clear, temps in the upper 40s and breezes out of the NW at 7-10mph.  Tomorrow... more of the same but less breezy.  We all turned our clocks back one hour before turning in last night... did you?

Last Day for Daylight Savings Time

Backroad to The Shore (route 347) 

Mornin'!  It's 39° in Wildwood NJ.  Hasn't been in the 30s here since April 2nd.  It's cold outside.  It's also calm (breezes out of the N-NE at 2-4mph) and bright as Ms Sun's about to rise above the horizon in about 5 minutes.  It'll be a lovely autumn day with plentiful sunshine and temps in the mid-50s with W-NW breezes light and variable mostly at 3-5mph.  Tonight... clear, with temps in the upper 40s and breezes out of the W-NW at 5-8mph.  Tomorrow... more of the same but slightly breezier.  Tonight... turn the clocks back one hour as Daylight Savings Time ends and Standard Time begins.  Not a fan of dusk settling in and sunset before 5pm.  But, it'll be March 8th before you know it.  Oh... it's "homemade soup" day as Cream of Celery-Leek soup is on tap.  It's time to use all the overload amounts of celery in the fridge!

Welcome, November!

A Key West Sunset

Mornin'!  It's 48° in Wildwood NJ.  Ms Sun's up and shining brightly (thank God).  It's still windy (not as bad as yesterday and last night) with winds out of the W-NW at 15-20mph.  Happy November!  It feels like November when stepping out the door this morning.  Blog's a bit late as I took sleeping in to another level, (I think my body's saying it's time to catch up after a wild ride vacation) but I'm raring to go as the Sun pours in and this delicious cup of coffee brings me to life.  It'll be a slightly blustery day with temps in the mid-50s, winds out of the W-NW at 15-20mph and plenty of sunshine.  Tonight... clear, temps in the upper 40s and winds out of the N-NW at 9-11mph.  Tomorrow... calm and sunny with temps in the low-50s and Sunday... sunny and cold (temps barely tapping the 50s) with the blustery winds checking back in!
