Good evening! Cloudyand 32 degrees in Delmar for the evening walk. Calm wind. The sidewalks are a bit icy from the freezing rain earlier and I’m sure the news media is declaring the slippery roads a dire emergency that deserves governmental action but I’m like whatever, stay home or use caution. I’m glad I ran to the store yesterday.
The truth is with my new boots – which are finally broke in I have decent traction on the ice and the freezing rain is kind of mixed in Delmar so it’s not super icy yet. And it’s getting warmer. I seriously thought about skipping my evening walk but lately I’ve been on a roll with my steps and I didn’t want to have a down day. You know how those steps apps can get your butt moving.
It was a very typical psuedo Monday at the office . I ended up running late and catching the later local to work and then doing the walk of shame into my office though I don’t think any the other directors caught me coming in late. I’m usually one of the first ones in as I take the express bus and then walk the Plaza before work so I’m usually in well before nine. Busy left work at 6:15 pm and it was raining hard this evening. I’m definitely noticing that the days are getting longer and are sunnier in the evening.
Tonight will have a chance of freezing rain and sleet before midnight, then a chance of rain and sleet. Mostly cloudy , with a low of 33 degrees at 8pm. 18 degrees above normal, which is similar to a typical night around April 5th. South wind 3 to 5 mph. Chance of precipitation is 30%. Little or no sleet accumulation expected. In 2022, we had cloudy skies in the evening, which became mostly clear by the early hours of the morning. It got down to 22 degrees. The record low of -19 occurred back in 1957.
Tonight will have a Waining Crescent Moon with 18% illuminated. The Snow Moon is on Thursday, February 2. The darkest hour is at 12:06 am, followed by dawn at 6:51 am, and sun starting to rise at 7:23 am in the east-southeast (118°) and last for 3 minutes and 18 seconds. Sunrise is 31 seconds earlier than yesterday. The golden hour ends at 8:06 am with sun in the southeast (126°). Not going to be a particularly nice morning though. Tonight will have 14 hours and 28 minutes of darkness, a decrease of one minute and 46 seconds over last night.
I was reading that January 22nd is the Lunar New Year that is the big Chinese celebration that the western press either will chew out saying it’s going to lead to bad air pollution in China or as a super spreader event for the COVID with everybody having some fun. As because everybody in the press is a Debbie Downer about fun when it’s not America . Honestly though I’m excited about the year of the rabbit . I was reading the horoscopes for the year, the complete psuedo science they are, just for fun.
Tomorrow will have a chance of rain and snow showers before 8am, then a chance of rain showers. Mostly cloudy , with a high of 42 degrees at 11am. 10 degrees above normal, which is similar to a typical day around March 6th. Light west wind increasing to 10 to 15 mph in the morning. Chance of precipitation is 30%. Little or no snow accumulation expected. A year ago, we had light snow in the morning, remaining cloudy in the afternoon. The high last year was 34 degrees. The record high of 59 was set in 1973. 7.9 inches of snow fell back in 1891.
In four weeks on February 14 the sun will be setting in the west-southwest (253°) at 5:27 pm, which is 36 minutes and 4 seconds later then tonight. In 2021 on that day, we had mostly cloudy, snow showers and temperatures between 28 and 15 degrees. Typically, you have temperatures between 36 and 17 degrees. The record high of 63 degrees was set back in 1946.

Bright blue skies, hoar frost on the trees, made for a perfect back drop over Chittning Pond this Martin Luther King Day. Warm temperature meant that ice was too thin for ice fishing, but still provided a colorful backdrop to the deep blue skies.
The United States Air Force conducted radar and related research and development at the Verona Research Facility for a 35-year period following World War II. The property includes over 500 acres of land developed with 27 buildings varying in size from small power houses to multi-story office and lab buildings up to 20,000 square feet. Operations on the property ceased by 1998 and the Site has been unoccupied since that time.
Lu Engineers, under direct contract with the USAF, has been investigating and remediating various portions of the NYSDEC listed Verona in active Hazardous Waste Site since 2000. During that time, we have remediated several soil and groundwater plumes including chlorinated solvents, PCBs, pesticides and motor fuel. We have remediated all occurrences of PCBs in electrical equipment and elsewhere and completed surveys, plans and specifications for asbestos abatement and demolition of the dilapidated structures on the property. We have also prepared bid documents and cost estimates to facilitate abatement and demolition. We are currently finishing the process of de-listing the Site with the NYSDEC and remediating the last of the hazardous building materials remaining. This work will facilitate transfer of the property by the USAF to the federal General Services Administration.
Good morning! Happy Tuesday from back in the cesspool. New York let’s go chase that money. Partly sunny and 21 degrees in Delmar for the morning walk on this third week of January after the long weekend, which seemed too short. Calm wind. Things will start to thaw out at around 11 am. And then more rain this evening. I will pack my umbrella for the evening commute.
It’s back to work after the long weekend. Already got paid for the weeks gone by. Memories of the weekend come and gone loom large. Despite the thermostat set at fifty in my apartment I was much too warm with the heat. I felt like a husky brought inside in the freezing weather. I’m sure I’ll feel hot all day in the office and I’ll have my fan running.
Today will have a chance of rain, mainly after 2pm. Increasing clouds , with a high of 37 degrees at 3pm. Five degrees above normal, which is similar to a typical day around February 18th. Light and variable wind becoming southeast around 5 mph. Chance of precipitation is 50%. New precipitation amounts of less than a tenth of an inch possible. A year ago, we had light snow in the morning, remaining cloudy in the afternoon. The high last year was 36 degrees. The record high of 62 was set in 1889. 10.9 inches of snow fell back in 1994.
Got paid this morning before I could even get out of bed and look at the NY Post cover on the wall from Dan Halloran and the ducking money and his hair brained scheme to sell the New York City mayor-ship. If you are planning on putting a knife though some ones back make sure you actually will be successful at killing them. Usually it’s the dumb criminals that get caught. Smart ones amend the law so their conduct is lawful.
Running a bit late on my morning walk so I had to walk past the smoking cars past the high school but whatever. I am taking the local to work so I have a bit of extra time to iron my shirt, take a shower and pack a lunch. I’m not going to pack a dinner, I’m hopeful it won’t be too late of a night. But I don’t care, once I get home if it’s not raining I’ll do my evening walk and then head to bed after dinner.
Solar noon is at 12:06 pm with sun having an altitude of 26.6° from the due south horizon (-44.2° vs. 6/21). A six foot person will cast a 12 foot shadow today compared to 2.2 feet on the first day of summer. The golden hour starts at 4:06 pm with the sun in the southwest (235°). The sunset is in the west-southwest (242°) with the sun dropping below the horizon at 4:49 pm after setting for 3 minutes and 18 seconds with dusk around 5:20 pm, which is one minute and 12 seconds later than yesterday. The best time to look at the stars is after 5:55 pm. At sunset, look for rain and temperatures around 36 degrees. There will be a calm wind. Tomorrow will have 9 hours and 32 minutes of daytime, an increase of one minute and 46 seconds over today.
It just back to the grind, and Madison County was so nice but I know I’m working for a better future . I was fortunate enough to have a job that I could work in Madison County for a brief period of time but those days came and went so quickly, just as did Dr. King’s weekend. But so be it. Not the other side of the world, I could go back there at some point in the spring. I’m thinking though for President’s Weekend I might be back at Rennselaerville State Forest. That is five weeks off though. I can’t complain too much, just a four day week and it will be the weekend before you know it.
Tonight will have a chance of rain before 2am, then a chance of rain and snow. Cloudy , with a low of 33 degrees at 6am. 18 degrees above normal, which is similar to a typical night around April 5th. South wind 3 to 5 mph. Chance of precipitation is 30%. Little or no snow accumulation expected. In 2022, we had cloudy skies in the evening, which became mostly clear by the early hours of the morning. It got down to 22 degrees. The record low of -19 occurred back in 1957.
Fixed the chain on my wallet. I find old USB cables work good for tying my wallet to my belt and usually last a year or two. Now that’s real recycling and means that I don’t loose my wallet.
Continuedmild for the weekend though Sunday will be the best day. Saturday, mostly cloudy, with a high near 36. Sunday, partly sunny, with a high near 40. Probably cold enough that things will be frozen on Bennett Hill though for hiking I’m thinking. Typical average high for the weekend is 32 degrees. The coldest time of the year isn’t so cold.
Looking ahead, there are 4 weeks until Valentines Day when the sun will be setting at 5:27 pm with dusk at 5:54 pm. Or as I like to call it, Valente’s Day, mostly because I’m not good at spelling. On that day in 2022, we had mostly cloudy, snow showers and temperatures between 28 and 15 degrees. Typically, the high temperature is 36 degrees. We hit a record high of 63 back in 1946.
