New Webcam at Ottens Harbor - WW

Gray Hump Day

Today's webcam shots - North WW
Mornin'!  It's 51° in Wildwood NJ.  Humidity's 83% with a dewpoint of 48° and it's raining.  It's been raining since late last night.  Let's put it this way... we've received a nice watering.  Winds aren't too bad out of the S-SW at 9-13mph.  Winds will be all over the place as these S-SW winds will be shifting any time now from the W-NW then to the N-NW, then to the North, and again to the N-NE by mid-day all in the 10-15mph range.  Temps will only rise a few degrees and hover in the mid-50s.  This rain system is just about all off shore.  There's a very small chance we could see a small shower or two this morning but for the most part it'll be a mostly cloudy day.  Tonight... cloudy, temps in the low-40s and N-NE winds at 10-15mph.  Tomorrow... cloudy skies early with peeks of sunshine eventually coming through, temps in the low-50s and N-NE winds at 5-10mph.  Tomorrow night... cloudy, temps in the mid-40s and very light breezes.  Friday... cloudy day, 25% chance of rain, temps in the mid-50s and S-SW winds at 5-10mph.  Friday night... cloudy, 80% chance of rain, temps in the upper-40s and West winds at 5-10mph.  Saturday... possible rain early (50% chance) with sunshine later in the day, temps around 55° and West winds at 10-20mph.  Saturday night... mostly clear with a few clouds from time to time, temps in the upper 30s with North winds at 5-10mph.  Sunday... partly sunny, temps in the low-50s and W-NW winds at 5-10mph.  Sunday night... clear, temps in the mid-40s and W-SW winds at 5-10mph.  It's the New Moon tomorrow. Those higher than normal tides are happening.

Mix Of Sun And Clouds Today

Mornin'!  It's 39° in Wildwood NJ.  It's feels more like 33° with the windchill.  The winds are currently out of the NW at 10-12mph.  It's clear and starlit with a smattering of clouds here and there.  It's still dark but in the black sky, puffs of white are visible.  We're going to have a mix of sun and clouds today but the sunshine will give way to a mostly cloudy day with a 20% chance of a rain shower.  Temps will be in the mid-upper 40s with W-NW winds at 10-15mph.  Today just might be the last day this week that we'll see any sunshine; at least until Sunday.  Tonight... rain likely (95% chance), temps in the low-40s and South winds at 5-10mph.  Tomorrow... most likely waking to rain (85% chance) with rain ending in the afternoon and remaining cloudy, temps in the low-50s and NE winds at 10-20mph.  Tomorrow night... overcast, temps in the mid-40s with N-NE winds at 10-15mph.  Thursday... another gray day, temps around 50° with N-NE winds at 5-10mph.  Thursday night... cloudy, temps in the upper 40s and very light breezes. Friday and Saturday look like washouts as rain is in their forecasts. The "New Moon" is Thursday.  Remember what the Full and New Moons do... bring on the higher than normal tides so we will no doubt begin to see more higher than normal water rising along the beaches and marshes.  Perhaps even in the low-lying areas throughout the streets of Wildwood.  Those waters know just how to seep onto the streets and create havoc.  Just an fyi.

Cape May Lighthouse - Cove Beach 

Mornin'!  It's 46° in Wildwood NJ.  We're under cloud cover with barely a breeze out of the NE at 4-6mph.  There's more clouds on the back side of the island than the front as the sky is supposed to have a mix of sun and clouds this morning.  Unfortunately, any blue sky we get will give way to cloud cover by this afternoon.  Temps will be in the mid-upper 50s with E-NE winds shifting to the S-SE at 10-15mph.  Tonight... cloudy, 40% chance of a rain shower (should be only on the overnight), temps in the low-mid 50s with SW winds at 15-25mph.  There's a "Small Craft Advisory" posted at 6pm tonight due to the winds.
