Sun, RFH Homecoming Set the Week's Focus

It's what's going on in the Rumson-Fair Haven area this week.



Happy Monday, friends and fans!  Hope you had a nice weekend.

Don't forget that if you were at an event we couldn't make, please send your photos to elaine.develde@patch.com and they will be posted.

Looks like the good weather trend is going to continue this week with clear skies and temperatures hitting a high of 80 degrees on Wednesday.

Now, that's some kind of fall local summer goin' on right here. So, we will continue to bring you the tide table for Sea Bright every day.

Here it is for today going into tomorrow:

2013-09-30 12:15 p.m.   0.63 feet  Low Tide
