Good morning! Happy Primary Day ! I guess the polls don’t open until noon for one last time on primary day, that changes in 2020. This evening I will stop by the library to vote. I don’t have a real strong preference on who to vote for, indeed the only non judicial primary is the Comptroller seat as Mike Conners is retiring. Good for him, he’ll be able to enjoy his summer days from his deck overlooking the Hudson River. Three weeks to Last Sunset After 8:30 PM . Rain and 68 degrees in Delmar, NY. There is a south-southeast breeze at 6 mph. . The dew point is 62 degrees. We might get a half inch of rain today with it tapering off later.
Today will have showers likely and possibly a thunderstorm before 1pm, then scattered showers and thunderstorms after 1pm. Mostly cloudy , with a high of 79 degrees at 2pm. One degrees below normal, which is similar to a typical day around June 21st. Maximum dew point of 67 at 1pm. South wind 6 to 8 mph. Chance of precipitation is 70%. New rainfall amounts between a half and three quarters of an inch possible. A year ago, we had mostly sunny skies. The high last year was 78 degrees. The record high of 95 was set in 1898.
I packed a lunch and dinner to bring to work, I’ll eat before walking over to John Wolcott house after work. I’ll do that for a few hours and then catch the bus to Delmar and vote at the library. I think the new polling place at the library is more convenient for me although come the autumn I’ll probably early vote at the Lutheran Church. It’s fantastic how they’ll have two weekends along with several days with evening hours to vote. It will be even better if the voters approve the constitutional amendment allowing no excuse absentee voting by mail. I’m a Democrat but I value competitive elections and I certainly do not always vote party line – I’m often a ticket splitter – as I like conservative, divided government.
The sun will set at 8:37 pm with dusk around 9:12 pm, which is 4 seconds later than yesterday. At sunset, look for possible rain showers and temperatures around 74 degrees. The dew point will be 63 degrees. There will be a west-northwest breeze at 5 mph. Today will have 15 hours and 18 minutes of daytime, an increase of 17 seconds over yesterday.
Tonight will be scattered showers, mainly before 7pm. Partly cloudy , with a low of 64 degrees at 3am. Five degrees above normal. Maximum dew point of 64 at 6pm. West wind 3 to 5 mph. Chance of precipitation is 30%. New precipitation amounts of less than a tenth of an inch possible. In 2018, we had mostly clear skies in the evening, which became partly cloudy by the early hours of the morning. It got down to 48 degrees. The record low of 39 occurred back in 1979.
On this day in 1998, in Clinton v. City of New York, the United States Supreme Court decides that the Line Item Veto Act of 1996 is unconstitutional. It probably would have been a good check on government spending had it been upheld and not required a constitutional amendment to enact. But it also would have made the president much more powerful.
I am going to price out the cost of replacing that burner in the camp stove that is rusted and I think propane is leaking from. Maybe replacing it isn’t necessary – it could be a loose connection or all that crap I cleaned out of it but it wouldn’t hurt to have one handy before I reassemble things. I think boiling coffee over and spilling it along with rain and snow meant things deteriorated internally. I expect it won’t be an expensive part, and I certainly want to stop the gas leak so it doesn’t damage my table again.
As previously noted, there are 3 weeks until Last Sunset After 8:30 PM when the sun will be setting at 8:30 pm with dusk at 9:04 pm. On that day in 2018, we had hot, humid, mostly sunny, patches of fog and temperatures between 96 and 69 degrees. Typically, the high temperature is 83 degrees. We hit a record high of 97 back in 1900.
