Good morning! Happy Tuesday. Six weeks to More Night then Day 🌌. Clouds, rather damp and 71 degrees in Delmar. β There is a southeast breeze at 5 mph. 🍃. The dew point is 68 degrees. No rain but definitely a threat, although you can see the sun peak out occasionally. I brought my umbrella and rain coat so I’m prepared unlike yesterday. Ensures it will not rain. The skies will clear tomorrow around 8 am.
I expect today to be a relatively busy day, as there is just a lot going on at work today. But busy days today lead to bigger rewards tomorrow. Things will get done and I’m hoping to leave around five again tonight but I’ll play it day by day. Tonight though, I probably won’t go to the library after work. 📚 Maybe it will be nice enough to go on my evening walk.
Today will have a chance of showers and thunderstorms, then showers likely and possibly a thunderstorm after 1pm. Some of the storms could produce heavy rain. Mostly cloudy β , with a high of 82 degrees at 3pm. One degree above normal. Maximum dew point of 70 at 11am. South wind 5 to 7 mph. Chance of precipitation is 70%.

Back in 1962, Two gunmen hijacked a mail truck 📩in Plymouth, Massachusetts, and made off with $1.5 million.💰 That really is quite the story involving a fake road block and hijacker dressed up as road construction personnel.🚧 Not to mention, $1.5 million was a lot more back in the day when the minimum wage was below a dollar an hour.🚛 I’ll have to post it later on.
Looking ahead, there are 6 weeks until More Night then Day 🌌 when the sun will be setting at 6:46 pm with dusk at 7:14 pm.
