Good Friday morning. Hang on to your hats, and probably shouldn’t open that umbrella today. Winds are howling along the Coast through today out of the South to Southwest 10-20 mph, gust possible to 40 mph. Will continue into the night, but better this weekend. Yes, just rain. Highs in the low to mid 50s and lows in the upper 40s. Only five more days until Christmas. How’s the shopping going? Don’t forget Shore Acres runs through New Year’s Eve. Saw a great elementary school program at Madison Wednesday. Nice job Principal Eli Ashton in his first year. Lots of smiles. I am sure it is that way at many holiday programs this year.
