May 12, 2019 Morning
Good morning! Happy Mothers Day π©β! Time for some motherly love and Frank Zappa records. π Five weeks to Fathers Day π¨. Cloudy, damp and 47 degrees β There is a east breeze at 9 mph. π. The skies will clear Wednesday around 11 am. Maybe. That said the 8-14 day outlook suggests warm and dry weather for Memorial Day Weekend but things are subject to change.
Its kind a damp morning as was predicted but the rain seems done. π¦ Laying back in the hammock, had some eggs π³, warmed up my hands by the heater. I did turn on the truck for a while because the starting battery πwas around 12.51 volts. Probably not required but I’d rather be safe than sorry.
In a bit I’m going to finish taking down camp and head fishing. π£ Later on I will probably go for a walk down to Rockwood Lake then head home. I think the rain is done for the day here. β
Today will have a chance of light rain. Cloudy π§, with a high of 49 degrees at 2pm. 19 degrees below normal, which is similar to a typical day around March 27th. East wind around 9 mph. Chance of precipitation is 50%. New precipitation amounts between a tenth and quarter of an inch possible. A year ago, we had light rain in the morning, remaining cloudy in the afternoon. The high last year was 50 degrees. The record high of 91 was set in 1881. There was a dusting of snow in 1996.β
The sun will set at 8:12 pm with dusk around 8:45 pm, which is one minute and 6 seconds later than yesterday. π At sunset, look for clouds β and temperatures around 44 degrees. There will be a east breeze at 6 mph. Today will have 14 hours and 35 minutes of daytime, an increase of 2 minutes and 13 seconds over yesterday.
Tonight will have a chance of rain. Cloudy π§, with a low of 40 degrees at 1am. Six degrees below normal, which is similar to a typical night around April 24th. East wind around 6 mph. Chance of precipitation is 50%. New precipitation amounts of less than a tenth of an inch possible. In 2018, we had cloudy 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 30 occurred back in 2005.
Looking ahead, there are 5 weeks until Fathers Day π¨ when the sun will be setting at 8:40 pm with dusk at 9:16 pm. On that day in 2018, we had mostly sunny and temperatures between 84 and 50 degrees. Typically, the high temperature is 78 degrees. We hit a record high of 96 back in 1967. I could see a warm June after this rather cold and wet spring.
