In less than a week, Thanksgiving will arrive. But this Thursday, it felt more like Memorial Day weekend was on the way, with temperatures nearly hitting the 70-degree mark and a spectacular sunset over Barnegat Bay to close out the mild day. We were lucky enough to capture some video of this amazing sunset Thursday night, and it is shared above. (Note: some ad blockers may interfere with the video player.)
Most Shore residents, however, are looking ahead to next Thursday and the days the precede it as the holiday rush for 2024 officially gets underway. The National Weather Service has updated their seven-day forecast to include predictions for Thanksgiving. It is presented below, following a few still photos of that beauty of a sunset.
