Heading into the 11 o’clock hour we are at 42 degrees and partly cloudy. Increasing clouds tonight, looking for the temperature to drop a few more degrees, but not much colder. Dawn at 4:58 am. Tomorrow will be warmer with a nearly seasonable 67 degrees and cloudy. Chance of rain in the afternoon.
Cool evening
May 16, 2016 Evening
I’m glad that I wore the overcoat to work today, As it was frigid at the bus stop. The bus tonight is running remarkably on time or maybe slightly early. But it is a chilly, blustery evening with temperatures around 53 degrees and winds pushing from the west around 20 miles per hour with gusts up to 40 mph. While it was clear earlier now some clouds are creeping in. Dusk tonight is at 8:45.
Traffic is light at this hour, and making good progress home. Been a long day, although everything mostly went without a hitch. Kind of hungry. I probably will have a quick dinner and then bundle up and head out for the evening walk. I guess it’s not really that cold out. No frost bite at 50 degrees even with gale strength wind.
Tomorrow is Tuesday and weekend ain’t far away. Saturday is the full moon. Cloudy and not so cold tomorrow. We might get a quick shower tomorrow but I’m not expecting a wash out.
Kind of a pretty evening with the clouds a pink and blue as this Monday concludes. Have a great evening.

May 16, 2016 9 AM Update
Not sure if I really needed my wool over coat today but I wore it. 46 degrees and mostly cloudy but the breeze doesn’t seem super cold. A lot of gray creeping in now. Running late for work, I’m taking the late bus downtown. I guess I can always stay late if I fall behind on work. It’s Monday.
I hope that the weekend remains as predicted. I could really go for a nice weekend in the Adirondacks enjoying the black fly season. This spring has been ridiculously cold and wet. I’m super happy for the second half of week and the weekend should the forecast prove true.
Sunset tonight is at 8:12 pm and dusk at 8:45. We are only five weeks away from the first day of summer, the longest day of the year, with an 8:36 pm sunset. At sunset tonight, we are looking at 54 degrees under mostly clear skies with a pretty good breeze. I’ll probably end up walking down to the library.
Today in 1960, Theodore Maiman operates the firstoptical laser (a ruby laser), at Hughes Research Laboratories in Malibu, California. Lasers are common place and used in a wide variety of applications, such as LiDAR.
Have a great day. Before you know, we will be out of crawl gear of the week and in over drive.
