Snow and Ice
Amazing sights yesterday of the snow and ice surrounding the island.
The highlights: seeing the ice in the waves off of the 8th Street jetty, the huge chunks of ice along the ocean’s edge, and the fresh snow on the beach paths.
A mild 27 degrees right now, with bright, warm sunshine 🙂

Snow Day
Beautiful day in Avalon, NJ.  A “just enough” snow storm, AND temperatures edging  above 20 degrees (without the crazy wind).

Contrasting Views
Interesting to compare the views of the 80th Street beach (cold, but it looks like a warm summer day) to the bay at 26th Street (a frozen tundra). Â Both of these picture were taken today.

Colder by a Mile??
Credit to Twitter friends @RinnMike and @rosemarydery for the clever modification of Avalon’s trademark sign 😉
Not to worry- the original slogan and sign remain intact!

Beach Days
Our beach vehicle permit provides a nice option to catch the sunrise in the comfort of a heated Jeep 🙂
Yet, I am out walking along the sand on most days.
It was crazy windy this morning- will be cold for even the spectators at the annual Polar Bear Plunge in Sea Isle City!

Stone Harbor NJ Beach Update
Starting today, pedestrian and vehicle access to Stone Harbor Point will be temporarily closed.
The Borough of Stone Harbor received a federal grant to restore wildlife habitat damaged during Sandy.
Construction vehicles will begin moving sand to build an elevated area for beach-nesting and migratory birds. Â The dune will also provide storm protection for the nearby residential area.
For complete details: Â Stone Harbor Point Project

Avalon NJ Beach Update
I talked with a Borough of Avalon official regarding on going and proposed beach projects.
1) Beach paths in the southend of Avalon are being elevated to similar levels as the surrounding dunes. Â There were concerns during Sandy that the paths could become a route for the ocean to flow into the street (thankfully, it didn’t happen).
2) Avalon officals are working on securing a dredge for a beach fill project for the north end of the island- hopefully coordinating with Ocean City to move the equipment after their project is completed. Â The timing is up in the air, yet an early summer time frame is likely. Â If scheduled, the Borough will maintain safe beach access on as many streets as possible during the beach fill.
