My truck is mostly packed for camping this weekend and the kayak is on the roof, the fluids are good, all gassed up and ready to go. I think it will be a nice weekend up in the Adirondacks, potentially my last week camping this summer. We will see. A lot depends on the weather and my schedule. 

Kind of muggy tonight with a temperature of 72 degrees and a dew point of 67. Nice big full moon tonight, the Sturgeon Moon. The Last Quarter Moon is next Thursday. The Full β€œCorn” Moon is on Friday, September 16th.

Tonight will have patchy fog after 2am. Otherwise, partly cloudy, with a low of 63 degrees at 5am. Three degrees above normal. Maximum dew point of 67 at 10pm. Northwest wind around 5 mph. The record low of 43 occurred back in 1977. 

Tomorrow will have patchy fog before 9am. Otherwise, sunny, with a high of 87 degrees at 3pm. Seven degrees above normal. Maximum dew point of 66 at 8am. August weather. North wind around 6 mph. The record high of 92 was set in 1899. The sun will rise at 6:06 am with the first light at 5:36 am, which is 1 minutes and 4 seconds later then yesterday.

Looking ahead, State Fair Opens in a 1 week, First Day of Autumn is in 5 weeks, Last Recorded Day Above in 90 in Albany is in 7 weeks, First Day with Average High Below 60 is in 9 weeks and Thanksgiving is in 14 weeks.
