Good morning! Happy Average High is 50 🍂! If it only was that warm. Mostly cloudy and 37 degrees in Delmar, NY. ☁ There is a south breeze at 8 mph. 🍃. Temperatures will drop below freezing at tomorrow around 11 pm. ☃️

I think I’m feeling better today but not great. 😷 I’ll make it through today at any rate and I’m not going to spend most of today in bed like yesterday. It’s just this cold that three weeks running still is making me miserable. I do think it was a good thing I stayed home this weekend – the weather is pretty cloudy and cold this morning. Camping and seeing Madison County would have been fun but not if I’m sick as a dog 🐶. And I’d be worried the whole weekend about icy, snow covered roads come Monday from the Lake Effect.

Today will be partly sunny 🌞, with a high of 47 degrees at 3pm. Three degrees below normal, which is similar to a typical day around November 17th. South wind 8 to 11 mph. A year ago, we had mostly sunny skies in the morning with some clearing in the afternoon. The high last year was 42 degrees. The record high of 72 was set in 1931. 3.2 inches of snow fell back in 1987.❄

The sun will set at 4:38 pm with dusk around 5:08 pm, which is one minute and 5 seconds earlier than yesterday. 🌇 At sunset, look for partly cloudy skies 🌃 and temperatures around 45 degrees. There will be a south breeze at 8 mph. Today will have 9 hours and 57 minutes of daytime, an increase of 2 minutes and 20 seconds over yesterday.

Today the plan is to shower 🚿 and go to the store 🏬, get groceries and finally return my beer cans from vacation 🍻. Then depending on the weather and how I feel I might go hiking 🚶 and then out to my parents house for Sunday dinner.

Tomorrow I might go to John Wolcott house for a bit, I’m undecided on that point. His project is finally winding down and I’m not interested in getting involved in other boxes, as much as he may want me to. 📂 I’m a volunteer, so I can do as much as I want and we are now a year into this project, six boxes later.

Next weekend is that green fair 🌲that I’m tabling at for Save the Pine Bush. It should be a nice day but it also means I’ll be stuck in Albany next weekend. That’s fine. I also need need to get my truck inspected before the end of the month, maybe I can do that next week – drop it off early before work and pick it up. Thanksgiving Weekend probably is the next chance I’ll have to get out of town quite honestly.

Tonight will have a slight chance of showers after 4am. Mostly cloudy 🌧, with a low of 36 degrees at 1am. Three degrees above normal, which is similar to a typical night around October 30th. South wind 3 to 6 mph. Chance of precipitation is 20%. 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 26 degrees. The record low of 15 occurred back in 1956.
