Post-Irene offshore water look
When I saw the clear forecast for today, I wasnt so much excited about having a nice day finally as being able to get a clear view of what the water did during the storm! In a word.. it looks COLD. there is 60.2 degree SST at CC and 64.4 in the hudson.
Of course, this will all have warmed up a bunch by later this week. And the warm that seems to be sitting about 20 miles east of the Edge should start swirling in as the winds normalize as well.
Much more interesting to me is to see a true color shot to see what became of The Bloom and to see how bad the runoff stuff is near the inlets (or outlets..) But I can't find one available just yet.
Hopefully this storm was a reset button for the inshore bluefin fishery.
