Good evening! A fairly chilly evening tonight with temperatures around 16, and a south breeze at 11 mph. The current wind chill is 3. Getting closer to the full moon tonight and it’s definitely pretty watching it hang over the city tonight. Traffic seems to be moving well on the old 787.I don’t know if they adjusted the timing at the traffic light at Southern Boulevard or commuting patterns have changed but traffic on the end of the 787, aren’t what they once were. The prior seems likely as it seems like left and straight traffic seems more delayed. 

Pretty much a normal Monday at work, not too bad, got out in time for the rush hour commute. I don’t expect this week to be too crazy but things could always change. I heard their was a building evacuation at my building before nine but fortunately I missed that with the cold. I’ll be glad when the weather warms later in the week. 

Tonight will be mostly cloudy, with a low of 13 degrees at 1am. One degrees below normal. South wind 9 to 13 mph. In 2016, it got down to 37 degrees with periods of fog and rain and thunderstorm. The record low of -13 occurred back in 1968.

Waxing Gibbous Moon tonight with 83% illuminated. The moon will set around 6:50 am. The Full “Wolf” Moon is on Thursday night with chance of rain. The sun will rise at 7:24 am with the first light at 6:52 am, which is 16 seconds earlier then yesterday. Tonight will have 14 hours and 42 minutes of darkness, a decrease of 1 minutes and 24 seconds over last night.

Tomorrow will snow, mainly after 4pm. Cloudy, with a high of 34 degrees at 6pm. Five degrees above normal. Breezy, with a south wind 10 to 15 mph increasing to 16 to 21 mph in the afternoon. Winds could gust as high as 34 mph. Chance of precipitation is 60%. New snow accumulation of less than one inch possible. A year ago, we had fog, rain, thunderstorm and a high of 55 degrees. The record high of 55 was set in 2016. 7.3 inches of snow fell back in 1984.

A nice weekend coming up with seasonable temperatures. Saturday, partly sunny, with a high near 30. Sunday, partly sunny, with a high near 34.Typical average high for the weekend is 30 degrees. Not too bad for the second week of January. We will have to see if that forecast remains true. 

In four weeks on February 6 the sun will be setting at 5:16 pm, which is 35 minutes later then tonight. In 2016 on that day, we had mostly cloudy skies and temperatures between 42 and 19 degrees. Typically, you have temperatures between 33 and 16 degrees. The record high of 55 degrees was set back in 1991.

Looking ahead, Martin Luther King Day is Next Monday, Presidents Day is in 6 weeks, Palm Sunday is in 3 months, Patriots Day is in 14 weeks, May Day is in 16 weeks and Memorial Day is in 20 weeks. It will be Memorial Day Weekend before you know it.
