Weather Update – October 18, 2021

Cool but partly sunny today. β›…

It looks like the best chance for a shower 🌦 is this morning but in general should be decent but you might want a light jacket this morning. Other then that, very autumn like weather this week, I am still toying with the idea of taking off Thursday and Friday to spend some time out in Central New York with my gun and knife. πŸ”« Unfortunately though it looks like Tuesday and Wednesday will be the best days of the week, and they aren’t connected with any weekend in particular.

Good Morning – October 18, 2021

Good morning! Another dark Monday morning as we head into work week. πŸŒ„

Always the mornings are dark this time of year, with the sunrise this morning not until 7:02 AM. It’s even worse as you get closer to the time change. But then we get more time in the morning but then the evenings are dark. It’s called autumn, then winter starts and slowly but surely we start to get more light as summer approaches and everything is thrown in reverse. See the chart I posted last night for detail.

Mostly cloudy, cool and 42 degrees in Delmar, NY. πŸŒ₯ Calm wind. I left one window open last night but the rest are closed because it was kind of a cool night. I will open things up again though before heading out for the fresh air though.

The bus is running on time 🚍 which is a good thing, although I’ve not had many problems with the 519 being particularly late. I’ve heard the earlier bus though is always very late. The right lane is closed getting onto Interstate 787 but traffic is moving well.

Out on the Plaza this morning I see they are draining the reflecting pool. πŸ¦† The ducks don’t look very happy about the fact but it’s obvious that they are preparing the ice skating β›Έ rink for winter. ❄ It’s been such a mild autumn season, often by now the ponds are drained.

Finally got my sheets washed πŸ›Œ, something that had been on my bucket list for a while but had been becoming increasingly dirty and smelly. πŸ‘ƒ That said, I take a shower each morning before going to work, so not a big deal. At some point I need to get to the laundromat and do my comforter too. Been a while since I last washed that.

Also, I need to go shopping tonight, πŸ₯ž as I’m out of pancake mix and other supplies. I also need gasoline β›½ as the tank in my truck is very low. Gas is so expensive these days, although compared to the historical record, I guess not that bad. Has to be bad news πŸ“° for the incumbent in the White House though.

I would like to get out of town this weekend, πŸ• but it all depends on the weather. I doubt I’ll do West Virginia or Pennsylvania this weekend but I’m thinking about Madison County, maybe Stoney Pond and Cazenovia if it’s nice enough. Honestly, I don’t want to work a five day week and things are still kind of slow in the office 🏒 although things are picking up a bit with the new year coming soon.

I saw one of kids I went to high school got himself some bacon seeds. 🐷 πŸ₯“ Lucky him. He’s been busy building a pretty nice homestead out in rural Rennselear County. Good for him. He’s a professional firefighters and he’s building a good life for him out in the country country.
