Lazy, Hazy Sunshine, Sunsets and Thunderstorms on the Way This Week (Plus Last Night’s Sunset Video)




It’s still July, but the “dog days” of summer seem to have arrived. It was lazy, hazy, but not too crazy Monday night on Barnegat Bay, with a sunset that snuck behind a low cloud layer strategically before the “official” sunset time. Still, there are always some cool sites to explore on a hazy night with the sun hiding in the background, and we hope you enjoy our short video tour above.

While sunny skies will dominate the week, the National Weather Service forecast is calling for some periods of stormy weather. The NWS forecast appears below:

Tuesday: A slight chance of showers, then a chance of showers and thunderstorms after 2pm. Mostly sunny, with a high near 84. Southwest wind 5 to 10 mph becoming south in the morning. Chance of precipitation is 30%. New rainfall amounts between a half and three quarters of an inch possible.
