    Getting outside
    It was a day to be outdoors, Monday, and that’s what hundreds did as cool temperatures and cooler breezes were the order of the day. Higher humidity is expected back this week as the area is expecting the third heatwave of the season.
  • Summer fun!
    Summer fun!
    Monday’s milder temperatures and a temporary respite from humidity had residents flocking to Savin Rock and the shoreline to enjoy cool breezes and exercise. Walkers, bikers and rollerblade enthusiasts traversed the Boardwalk for some afternoon/evening fun.
  • Morning glory
