May 6, 2016 Night

|

55 degrees and rain this evening. More rain on and off this evening, stopping by morning. Low around 49. Cloudy tomorrow, showers Saturday night, clearing for the second half of Mothers Day.

For the blog renovations done this evening. Not super major changes but some good navigation changes based on how people actually use the blog. Hopefully will go live tomorrow.

Need to get a haircut tomorrow and do some cleaning around. With cloudy wet conditions expected tomorrow, I’m not planning much. My view is so be it.

May 6, 2016 Evening

Talk about a long week. But somehow we survived. 58 degrees with light rain coming down this evening. While we might get rain for the start of Mother’s Day, it’s going to clear out and be partly to mostly sunny for the balance of the day. Saturday will be cloudy with showers.

Tired. After dinner I may just go to bed. Looking forward to a nice quiet weekend. Going to try to get the next generation of the blog up and running. We will see. Looking forward to nicer weather next week.

Three weeks from now, I’ll be wherever I decide to go for Memorial Day Weekend. I’m increasingly thinking Vermont for a change, but where exactly is to be decided. Only though if the weather seems nice.

Traffic is moving decently well along 787, but relatively heavy for a Friday. Probably folks stayed home on this rainy evening. I don’t think it will be that bad of a commute.

May 6, 2016 Morning

Three weeks from now will be the start of the Memorial Day Weekend. Happy Friday. Black fly season. Cloudy this morning and 52 degrees. Some blue in the western part of the sky; it’s sunny in Buffalo. 64 degrees later and rain is likely. Was running a little late this morning but I walked quickly and made it to the express bus in time.

Continued cloudiness for Saturday with a chance of showers. 64 degrees for the high. More sun on Sunday afternoon with a high of only 58. The typical high for Mother’s Day is 67, so it will be a fairly cool one in contrast. More sun for the first half of the week.

Sunset tonight at 8:01 pm, the first sunset of the year after eight in Albany. Dusk occurs around 8:33 pm which would be nice if we weren’t expecting more rain. At least it’s helping the land green up and keeping the fire risk down.

Today in 1994, Former Arkansas state worker Paula Jones files a lawsuit against United States President Bill Clinton, alleging that he had sexually harassed her in 1991. The good old 1990s. Let’s bring back those good old days say some.

Back in 1949, computer technology took a major leap forward today with EDSAC, the first practical electronic digital stored-program computer, running its first operation.
