On a beautiful June morning a commercial fishing vessel is
headed in,
while a small recreational fishing vessel plies
the waters just outside the inlet .
SUMMER SOLSTICE: THE LONGEST
DAY! This weekend marks the summer solstice, the
point at which the earth's tilt toward the sun reaches it's
maximum angle. The actual solstice occurs on Sunday, when
we'll enjoy nearly15 hours of daylight between sunrise and
sunset. In Avalon, sunrise will occur at 5:33am Sunday
morning, and sunset will occur at 8:28pm.
"EXTREME DROUGHT:" That's
the classfication for Cape May County according to Drought.gov.
Although much of the state is classified as moderate or severe,
Cape May County has faired worse with regard to recent
precipitation. The National Weather Service data indicates
Cape May County has received just over 33 inches of
preceipitation in the past 12 months, down more than 10 inches
from normal. A single storm or rainfall helps, but it will
take many months of above average preceipiation fully restore
water levels. We can all help out in many ways, without
major inconvenience: eliminate drips and leaks in plumbing or
garden hoses; shorten showers by a few moments; don't allow
water to run while washing or drying dishes; irrigate deeply but
less frequently.
