Jazz, Fair, Business Update News

Well, friends and fans, we somehow escaped that threat of scattered thunderstorms again.

And, guess what? The weather troll, uh, I mean National Weather Service, says that there's an ever so slight chance of them again. This time, that slight chance has been narrowed down to one hour, between 2 and 3 p.m. OK. Let's see. The chance is 20 percent.

Now, we know those calculations were off yesterday, so, ahem, let's see. The evening is supposed to be cloudy with low a low temperature of 66 degrees. Sounds like a good Fair Haven Firemen's Fair night!

We'll be there again, trying to catch up with some teachers in the Shuffle Board Booth and getting some more classic footage for this year's Our Fair Lady video — Oh, it's gonna be special.

Don't forget that the finest fried seafood dining of all time can be had in the dining room at the fair. But, you knew that. And, the Out Back has people cooking up some great hot dogs and burgers. Stay tuned for our Fair Haven Firemen's Fair Factoids later today to get some interesting information on the fair.

But, before you head over to there, you may want to spend some time in or near the water for some end-of-summer fun. Here's that Sea Bright tide table we're bringing to you every day:

And, some interesting information about the moon and sun for today from www.tides4fishing.com:

"The lunar phase is a Last Quarter Moon. Today we will have 13 hours and 11 minutes of sun. The solar transit will be at 12:57 pm and the length of time the moon will be visible will be 14 hours and 50 minutes."

Besides fishing or other waterborne activities and the fair, there's Red Bank's Jazz in the Park tonight at 7:30 p.m. in Riverside Gardens Park.

And there's some information from Patch friends to share about the governor's trip to Sea Bright that is very similar to what Lt. Governor Kim Guadagno said when she took a tour of Fair Haven businesses not long ago.

We couldn't make it to Sea Bright this time, but will have an update on business progress there and the programs available for Sandy recovery there as well.

There are, of course, also some back-to-school tidbits and other news to share and photos and videos coming up.

In the meantime, I'll see you around the towns …
