Beautiful start to the week with sunny skies ang a high temperature of 52F. Temperatures look like they will be improving the next couple of days with highs in the mid 60’s. There is a Small Craft Advisory in effect until 7pm this evening for the Pamlico Sound. Currently we are seeing winds out of the NE at 22mph.
No reports came into the shop today. Hopefully with the wind dying down and rising temperatures the next couple of days, we will see some action.
