March 30, 2018 Morning
Good morning! Today is Good Friday βοΈ. Four weeks to Arbor Day 🌳. Rain and 49 degrees in Delmar, NY. β There is a south-southwest breeze at 11 mph. 🍃.
Made it home last night, got to bed at three o’clock, got up at six thirty and I’m now on the bus heading back downtown. 🚌 It really was stupid for me to drive in yesterday because it meant I had to drive home at three because the meters start at eight and I could have just gotten nearly as good shut eye at my desk.👀 The deer stayed out of my lane and the spring peepers were digging the rain when I got home. 🐸 I promise myself that I won’t do this again. Just take the bus and ride sharing if necessary. But at least I got a shower in and had waffles and coffee for breakfast. Albany is a very interesting place.
Cloudy, with a high of 51 degrees at 1pm. β Typical for today. South wind 11 to 16 mph becoming northwest in the morning. Chance of precipitation is 60%. New precipitation amounts of less than a tenth of an inch possible. A year ago, we had partly cloudy skies with more clouds in the afternoon. The high last year was 48 degrees. The record high of 86 was set in 1986. 4 inches of snow fell back in 1911.β
The sun will set at 7:19 pm with dusk around 7:48 pm, which is one minute and 9 seconds later than yesterday. 🌇 At sunset, look for mostly cloudy skies β and 45 degrees. Breezy, 16 mph breeze 💨from the northwest. Today will have 12 hours and 40 minutes of daytime, an increase of 2 minutes and 54 seconds over yesterday.
Tonight will be mostly cloudy, then gradually becoming mostly clear 🌌, with a low of 31 degrees at 6am. Typical for tonight. Northwest wind 7 to 15 mph. In 2017, we had cloudy skies. It got down to 33 degrees. The record low of 12 occurred back in 1923.
As much as I can complain about the three hours of sleep, I feel like they were a good three hours. 💤 And the new day is upon us. The weather is crappy so I’m not missing much with having to work on Good Friday. 🎣 Water levels are high for the first day of trout season on Sunday. At least it will be cloudy for opening day.
Saturday is going to be quite nice. I will probably go hiking somewhere I guess. 🏃Or maybe head out skiing in the mountains. Too much snow for camping unless I want to go snow camping. Every year is a bit different.
Looking ahead, there are 4 weeks until Arbor Day 🌳 when the sun will be setting at 7:51 pm with dusk at 8:22 pm. On that day in 2017, we had cloudy skies and temperatures between 73 and 57 degrees. Typically, the high temperature is 63 degrees. We hit a record high of 91 back in 1962.
