April 24, 2020 Night
Good evening! Partly cloudy and 47 degrees in Delmar, NY. π Calm wind.
I am getting up early for a sunrise π hike tomorrow so I got to get to sleep. Otherwise I’d be sitting out back, enjoying the nice evening weather. I’m actually surprised that my neighbors don’t have a fire π₯ out back it’s a nice evening but maybe they have to work tomorrow.
Went to the laundromat and worked from there π in my truck while doing my wash. Between the roomy cab of my truck and the Wi-Fi this is a pretty good place to work in my opinion. π» Beats my uncomfortable chair at home and the sluggish cellular internet that I have to be so darn careful to keep just for work. On my personal laptop on the Wi-Fi I can update my blog or go to any web site I want and it’s fast. Later on I walked down to the park β² and did my evening walk.
Tonight will be mostly cloudy π₯, with a low of 37 degrees at 6am. Four degrees below normal, which is similar to a typical night around April 15th. Calm wind. In 2019, we had cloudy skies in the evening, which became mostly clear by the early hours of the morning. It got down to 38 degrees. The record low of 23 occurred back in 1965.
Tonight will have a Waxing Crescent π Moon with 3% illuminated. At 8 PM, the moon was in the west (279Β°) at an altitude of 15Β° from the horizon, some 247,513 miles away from where you are looking up from the earth. π At the state speed limit of 55 mph, you’ll make it there by October 29th. Buckle up for safety! πΊ The moon will set in the west-northwest (293Β°) at 9:26 pm. The Flower π· Moon is on Thursday, May 7. The darkest hour is at 12:54 am, followed by dawn at 5:30 am, and sun starting to rise at 6:00 am in the east-northeast (71Β°) and last for 3 minutes and 3 seconds. Sunrise is one minute and 29 seconds earlier than yesterday. π The golden hour ends at 6:39 am with sun in the east-northeast (78Β°). Tonight will have 10 hours and 9 minutes of darkness, a decrease of 2 minutes and 37 seconds over last night.
Tomorrow will be mostly sunny π, with a high of 62 degrees at 3pm. One degrees below normal, which is similar to a typical day around April 23rd. Light north wind. A year ago, we had cloudy skies. The high last year was 66 degrees. The record high of 89 was set in 2009. 0.3 inches of snow fell back in 1928.β
This should be a really nice day. I’m planning on spending most of the afternoon hiking at Partridge Run πΆ and then I may spend a night at a different state forest in the hammock βΊ but it depends. Not going to be super cold tomorrow if I wear my hoodie and pack some blankets. Maybe have a little fire back in the woods then fall asleep to the sounds of woods. Looks like the rain β won’t come until fairly late on Sunday or at least I’ll be up quiet early on Sunday should I decide to spend the night.
In four weeks on May 22 the sun will be setting in the west-northwest (299Β°) at 8:18 pm,π which is 30 minutes and 8 seconds later then tonight. In 2019 on that day, we had partly sunny skies, with a few rain showers and temperatures between 71 and 45 degrees. Typically, you have temperatures between 71 and 49 degrees. The record high of 97 degrees was set back in 1911.
Looking ahead, May π is in 1 week, 8:30 PM Sunset οΈβ±οΈ is in 6 weeks and Latest Sunset π is in 2 months.
πΊπΈπ¦ Only 4 weeks remain until the start of Memorial Day Weekend!π¦ πΊπΈ
