We didnt get too much radiational cooling, 62 degrees in the city, 60s along the shore, 55 mount pocono, ocean water temperature, 61 degrees. We have mostly calm winds, just three, 5mile per hour winds, which helps the fog to form when you get a lot of wind. The air tends to dissipate that fog.

It looks like most that far will continue to move to the north of us. So we probably wont be bothered with that just yet. And a couple of stray showers down in southern delaware.

By 10 00 or 11 00 though here comes some sunshine, filtered with some clouds, but at least well see some sun. May stay kind of cloudy at the shore, then after 4 00, 5 00. Pop up thunderstorms are possible with cold front coming through. Wont be too much colder after that. But it will cool things down. Average hi, 78 degrees, not even close, yesterday, with the high of 62. And the clouds and the showers lingering. So, we will be optimistic and say 80 degrees if we get enough sunshine, and close to 80 tomorrow with plenty of sun, late day thunder storm, possible, on friday, with another cold front. But still looking pretty good through most of the day. And sunny day on saturday. High of 82. Maybe a shower in the morning.
