That fog is rapidly disappearing this morning and we are now up to sixty six.Β Calm wind. The dew point is 58 degrees. Not a bad start for our Wednesday.
Today will be sunny, with a high of 86 degrees at 3pm. Seven degrees above normal. Maximum dew point of 61 at 5pm. Calm wind becoming south 5 to 7 mph in the afternoon. With the relatively low dew point and the breeze, it’s bound to be a nice day. The record high of 95 was set in 1947.
Enjoy this nice summer day, four weeks from now will be the first day of autumn. On the first day of autumn,Β September 21, the sun will be setting at 6:52 pm,Β which is 48 minutes earlier then today. TheΒ average high is 70 degrees,Β and the record for that date is 95 degrees was set back in 1895.
But for now, I have to think about my weekend plans. I’m really undecided about heading up to the Wells / Spectacular area versus Schoharie. They do have those nice town beaches but it’s much more of a drive up north. Been to Schoharie a lot this year. I don’t know. We will see.
Good morning. Fog burning off and 65. 87 degrees and sunny later. Humidity creeping up to 61 dew point later.
