A rather gray morning. I decided I didn’t want to ride the local to work and was running too late to walk down to the park and ride, so I drove. 57 degrees this morning as the work week gets underway. Still beats driving in the city. Rain, thunderstorms, maybe severe, and 65 degrees later. Tomorrow I promise I’ll get an earlier start but it will be too wet for walking. I’m just thinking the local maybe somewhat delayed with the Delmar detour. 

The sun will set at 8:25 pm with dusk around 8:59 pm, which is 49 seconds later than yesterday. At sunset, look thunderstorms and 62 degrees. The dew point will be 58 degrees. There will be a south breeze at 13 mph. Today will have 15 hours and 5 minutes of daytime, an increase of one minute and 20 seconds over yesterday.

Tonight will have showers and thunderstorms likely before midnight, then a chance of showers. Mostly cloudy, with a low of 56 degrees at 4am. Four degrees above normal. Maximum dew point of 58 at 7pm. South wind 6 to 13 mph. Chance of precipitation is 60%. New precipitation amounts between a tenth and quarter of an inch, except higher amounts possible in thunderstorms. In 2016, it got down to 59 degrees with mostly sunny skies. The record low of 34 occurred back in 1961.

As previously noted, next Tuesday is 8:30 PM Sunset when the sun will be setting at 8:30 pm with dusk at 9:05 pm. On that day in 2016, we had mostly cloudy skies and temperatures between 83 and 59 degrees. Typically, the high temperature is 75 degrees. We hit a record high of 94 back in 1925.

Back to work on this Tuesday after Memorial Day. So be it. My calendar says today is a pay day, at least late in the evening. Direct deposit is rather nice. Hopefully the weekend will have decent weather, although I will probably stay in town and just go for a day hike and fishing. The woods is bound to be quite wet. 

Good morning! Happy Tuesday. Next Tuesday is the 8:30 PM Sunset. Cloudy and 55 degrees in Delmar, NY. There is a south-southeast breeze at 9 mph. The dew point is 51 degrees. The skies will clear tomorrow around 11 pm.

Today will have scattered showers, with thunderstorms also possible after noon. Cloudy and gray, with a high of 65 degrees at 2pm. Eight degrees below normal. Maximum dew point of 57 at 5pm. South wind 10 to 15 mph, with gusts as high as 25 mph. Chance of precipitation is 40%. New rainfall amounts between a tenth and quarter of an inch, except higher amounts possible in thunderstorms. A year ago, we had a thunderstorm and partly cloudy skies and a high of 84 degrees. The record high of 92 was set in 1987.
