January 19, 2016 Morning

Good morning! Back to work after the long weekend. It is currently partly cloudy and 13 degrees with a windchill around zero in Delmar. Today will have a slight chance of snow showers after noon. Partly sunny, with a high near 23. Wind chill values as low as -3. Windy, with a northwest wind 20 to 28 mph, with gusts as high as 48 mph. Chance of precipitation is 20%. Definitely a chilly day in the town we now lovingly call Socialist Delmar.

Sunset will be at 4:52 pm with twilight at 5:23 pm which is one minute and 14 seconds later then yesterday. Six days until sunset after 5 pm. The nights may be long but we are chopping a little time off from them every day.

The road salt is everywhere today. This is the awful winter season we are often reminded but sometimes forget about in nicer weather. True, it could be colder but it still is pretty harsh out there with the cold winds and road salt everywhere.

There are 2 months, 1 day until Palm Sunday. Easter is fairly early this year, the last weekend of March. This day in 1983, The Apple Lisa, the first commercial personal computer from Apple Inc. to have a graphical user interface and a computer mouse, is announced.
