Heavy rains this morning with scattered showers the rest of the day. High temperature for the day was 77F. Winds are out of the NE this evening at 15mph. Looks like a bunch more rain for the weekend. Dangerous rip currents as well.

Only thing we heard were some Bluefish and Sea Mullet when the rain let up.
