Good evening! Cloudy and cold 37 degrees in Delmar, NY. ❄ Breezy, ️21 mph breeze from the west 🌬 with gusts up to 31 mph 💨💨💨. The current wind chill is 26. That wind is really cutting when you go outside.

Mostly stayed home except for my evening walk. 🏡 Did some cleaning, some reading 📖, too much time on Facebook and researching binoculars. Birding 🐦 has become a hobby of mine not just on Facebook.

I’ve spent too much money on guns over the years, I really need to get some quality glass so I can see the woods better. Good glass ain’t cheap. At least you don’t have to wait for a background check to buy binoculars, yet. 🔫 Of course this comes at the time I also want to buy the screen house for camping. 🎪 Maybe I can do both, I’d have to give it some thought with the stimulus check coming although I really should invest most of that so I have it for the future. 💵 Plus if I adopt my alternative Adirondack vacation this summer I’ll save a lot of money and hopefully I’ll have a chance to make some good overtime at work come the fall.

Tonight will have isolated snow showers before 10pm. Reminds me of that Funny Bin Outing Isolation group on Facebook where people dress 👗 up during the quartine to take out their trash to the street or burn barrel as it’s the only time they’re getting out. Mostly cloudy 🌧, with a low of 33 degrees at 4am. 12 degrees below normal, which is similar to a typical night around April 5th. Cold night. Breezy, with a west wind 13 to 21 mph, with gusts as high as 31 mph. No heat but the windows are closed and it’s chilly enough in my bedroom I’m wearing long sleeve. That wind really makes it chilly but at least their was good sun today. Chance of precipitation is 20%. In 2019, we had cloudy skies. It got down to 52 degrees. The record low of 28 occurred back in 1958.

Tonight will have a Waining Gibbous 🌖 Moon with 90% illuminated. The moon will rise at 10:54 pm. The darkest hour is at 12:53 am, followed by dawn at 5:08 am, and sun starting to rise at 5:40 am in the east-northeast (65°) and last for 3 minutes and 12 seconds. Sunrise is one minute and 10 seconds earlier than yesterday. 🌄 The golden hour ends at 6:20 am with sun in the east-northeast (72°). Tonight will have 9 hours and 32 minutes of darkness, a decrease of 2 minutes and 15 seconds over last night.

Tomorrow will be partly sunny 🌞, with a high of 57 degrees at 4pm. 11 degrees below normal, which is similar to a typical day around April 13th. Breezy, with a west wind 14 to 22 mph, with gusts as high as 32 mph. A year ago, we had partly cloudy skies in the morning with some clearing in the afternoon. The high last year was 69 degrees. The record high of 92 was set in 1970. 5 inches of snow fell back in 1945.❄

I’m thinking about hiking at Thatcher Park tomorrow 🚶 but I’m a bit worried about the crowds. I don’t know but I haven’t been out there in a while and it might be pretty with the valley greening up below. Spent too much time at Partridge Run lately so I need a change. I guess if it’s cloudy tomorrow I could just stay home again. 🏡

It looks like based on what the region’s plan for reopening 🏢that probably in two weeks after Memorial Day Weekend I’ll be back to working downtown. 🚍 Back to getting up early and taking the bus to work. I kind of got used to sleeping in. That said I much prefer to work in a proper office. But it might impact my plans to take a long weekend the week after Memorial Day Weekend. Who knows things could change, but I tend to think slowly but surely things will be much closer to normal after June 1st. 😊 Maybe by Independence Day I can get a hair cut 💈 but who knows – and I fear I might have to find a new barber if my old one decides the pandemic means tossing in the towel for good. He has a GE Pension and he strikes me as frugal mostly being a barber for the social side of things. To keep the side burns or not? Might have to go if summer is hot.

In four weeks on June 6 the sun will be setting in the west-northwest (303°) at 8:30 pm,🌄 which is 25 minutes and 36 seconds later then tonight. In 2019 on that day, we had mist and temperatures between 76 and 61 degrees. Typically, you have temperatures between 75 and 54 degrees. The record high of 94 degrees was set back in 1925.

Looking ahead, Average High is 70 🐮 is in 1 week, Memorial Day Weekend Starts 🏕️ is in 2 weeks, Last Day of Session 🏛 is in 6 weeks and Summer ️⛱️ is in 6 weeks.

🇺🇸🦅Only 13 days remain until the start of Memorial Day Weekend!🦅🇺🇸
