November 5, 2016 Night

Good evening! Partly cloudy and 45 degrees in Cicero, NY. A nice little sliver of the moon to the west and not too cold for November. There is a west breeze at 5 mph. The skies will clear around 10 pm.

Tonight will be mostly cloudy, with a low of 44 degrees at 5am. Nine degrees above normal. Northwest wind 5 to 8 mph. One year ago, mostly cloudy with a low around 56. The record low of 15 occurred back in 1951.

Got some beer and trail mix, and watched the MSNBC news coverage for a while. Retiring to bed shortly so I can go for a walk at Green Lakes State Park at least one more time while I’m still in the Syracuse area. 

Swapped out Podcast Addict for Antenna Pod, and now I have a lot more free memory on my phone. That’s good as it means I won’t be constantly cleaning out the cache on my phone or missing emails because a lack of memory. I also had room to reinstall Facebook messagener which is nice. 

Waining Crescent Moon tonight with 40% illuminated. The moon will set around 12:52 am. The First Quarter Moon is on Sunday night with mostly clear skies expected. The Full β€œBeaver” Moon is the following Sunday night.

Tomorrow will be mostly cloudy, then gradually becoming sunny, with a high of 49 degrees at 3pm. Three degrees below normal. Cool but not outrageously cool for this time of year.  Northwest wind 6 to 8 mph. Last year, mostly cloudy with a high around 73. The record high of 73 was set in 2015. There was 3.2 inches of snow back in 1933. The sun will rise at 6:46 am with the first light at 6:16 am, which is one hour, one minutes and 18 seconds later then yesterday. Don’t forget to set your clocks back an hour. 

Looking ahead, Regular Season Opens in Southern Zone is in 2 weeks and New Years Eve is in 8 weeks.

There are 1 days, 23 hours and 10 minutes until the polls close in NY State on Election Day. I will be so glad when it’s all over. I look forward to spending next week in the wilderness, especially exploring Allegany County.
