5 degrees now.
12 at Nantucket Shoals (50 miles SE). h20 temp of 40 degrees.
It is going to be one hell of a foggy spring/summer.
Coldest I have seen the bouy, ever. Last winter it was 42 deg and it took a long time to come back. Seems always to. A friend who works at WHOI said that it is the coldest spot, every spring, in the Mid Atlantic Bight. The North winds blow down cold water all Winter and Spring from the Gulf of Maine (Northern Boreal).
Slush in the sea all along the south shore. An old timer told me that back in the day (by jeezus) it was always cold like this and the erosion was a lot less because the slush doesn't allow the waves to break on the beach as heavy as they do when it isn't frozen.
Amazing how Ma Nature works.........
