Good evening! Partly sunny and 45 degrees in Delmar, NY. There is a west-northwest breeze at 7 mph. 🍃.
Decided to leave work at four o’clock so I could drop off my dry cleaning before they close and because I have plenty of hours in the bank after last week. Busy day at work but still a relief after last week. Traffic is much lighter at this hour at any rate. Kind of chilly outside, despite the sun, with the breeze.

I was looking at one of my graphs, and noticed that the average temperature increases by one degree every two days in April or roughly 3 degrees a week. Doesn’t seem like a big jump but we go from average highs in the low 50s📈 during the first half of the month to the mid 60s as May approaches.
Cool this weekend with temperatures running 13 degrees below normal but otherwise sunny. π Saturday, partly sunny, with a high near 40. Sunday, partly sunny, with a high near 45. Typical average high for the weekend is 55 degrees.
That weekend forecast looks increasingly nice. Cool but sunny.🎣 Maybe not perfect for fishing but I guess if you go early or late might be fine. Depending on how much snow is left by the weekend I might even consider going camping. βΊ
In four weeks on April 30 the sun will be setting at 7:55 pm,🌄 which is 31 minutes and 50 seconds later then today.
