The weather in New Jersey this spring has been all over the thermometer. Today it is pushing 90 degrees and sunny. Earlier this week I brought out my heavy raincoat, I probably should have used my winter coat but I refused to wear it in May on principal.
Last week we had a couple of foggy days. On May 9th I was walking down the street in Village Park when I saw what appeared to be clouds floating close to the ground. Thanks to cell phones having decent cameras, I snapped a couple of pictures. Not that long ago I would have noticed it, but not had my camera handy.
The next day we were celebrating Mothers Day in Ocean Grove and Asbury Park when the fog rolled in again. This time it made Asbury Park landmarks disappear. As the casino is on Preservation New Jersey's list of ten most endangered historic places, it was eerie to get a glimpse of what it might look like if preservation efforts are not successful.
For the most part, as long as you don't suffer from seasonal allergies, the weather has been lovely. We have had many sunny days with low humidity. The swings, though, remind me of the year I was pregnant with Ashley. I owned five maternity outfits acceptable for work ranging from a heavy sweater and maternity pants to a summery dress. I often wore all five in the same week and was not at all uncomfortable.
The upcoming forecast calls for sun and temperatures in the 90s, then raining and down to 51 degrees by Thursday. The swings add to the challenge of what to wear any given day.
