Good morning, we’ve made it to a Tuesday. 60 days from now it will be Memorial Day Weekend. Going to warm up to the 40s by mid-day but still below average for late March. Might reach the mid-50s for the drizzle expected on Thursday.

That said, the snow appears to be in terminal decline. We might get more snow but it doesn’t seem like it will last. The sun simply is too strong.

Once the snow is gone I look forward to getting back on the road. While I recognize that we still have two months before the roads in the Adirondacks reopen, it really won’t be that long. Winter is ending.

Roadwork season has resumed on I-787 which promises to make commuting fun for the rest of the summer. The bus will get me through it. The ice is mostly off the river, south of the Dunn Memorial Bridge. I’ve been known to go kayaking on May 1st on the Hudson River.

Lobby day traffic. That’s all I will say, with a few nasty words on the side. We live in a democracy, so I guess people have a right to flood Albany with traffic and buses on Tuesday.
