November 16, 2017 7 AM Update

Morning folks! Happy Thursday. Next Thursday is Thanksgiving. Dark and dreary with light rain and the mercury is let’s say around forty degrees in Delmar. There is a south breeze at 9 mph. I didn’t get that soaked going down to the store to buy the most essential thing with breakfast, good delicious moo juice, aka MILK! I drink like two gallons of milk each week, and I hadn’t had a chance to get some and all I had was an empty jug of milk in my refrigerator which made me kind of sad. After milk and coffee, with waffles with fresh fruit, I’m happier.

Today will have continued light rain, mainly before 10am, then a chance of showers after noon. Mostly cloudy, with a high of 51 degrees at 1pm. Three degrees above normal. South wind 8 to 13 mph becoming west in the afternoon. Chance of precipitation is 70%. New precipitation amounts of less than a tenth of an inch possible. A year ago, we had cloudy skies with some clearing in the afternoon. The high last year was 55 degrees. The record high of 71 was set in 2006. 3.4 inches of snow fell back in 2002. I remember that day when I was a student at Hudson Valley Community College. The roads weren’t that bad, but they were a bit sloppy but mostly wet. First snowstorm of the autumn season that year.
There is always more to say but I have to get in the shower. Good morning! Express bus will be here before you know it it.
